DJ AM’s Sneaker Collection To Be Auctioned Off
One of the best collections of sneakers belongs to the late DJ AM, and they are about to be auctioned off online for charity on eBay, according to People.
Before the DJ tragically passed away this summer, he’d accumulated in excess of 800 pairs of sneakers, including the rare pair of Eminem Air Jordans (one of 50 ever made).
The auction begins at 4:30 p.m. PST on Sunday, November 15. According to the auction site, 100 per cent of the proceeds will go toward the DJ AM Memorial Fund, which supports “organizations and projects committed to addressing issues of addiction and recovery.”
DJ AM had been very invested in this cause, which is demonstrated through his series on MTV “Gone too Far,” in which the DJ helps struggling addicts curb their habits.
New additions from AM’s collection, which the Las Vegas Sun says includes “one of 200 pairs of Nike PlayStation Air Force 1s and one of 50 pairs of Eminem Air Jordan 4s, along with Supreme Dunks; Supa Dunks; Hyperstrikes; Air Jordan PEs; and other rare, retro and limited-edition shoes” will be added to the auction every evening through the first week of December 2009.
