Collectors, sports fans, sneakerheads, car junkies: Now is your time to run and grab your wallet. One of the most unique online auctions is running now, and bids begin to close on June 5. So, if you’re in the market for a one-of-a-kind pair of shoes, a luxury car (yes, really), and tons of other unique items, now is your chance to have a crack at the specially curated Dare to Dream collection.
Inside the Dare to Dream auction
Over the past few years, local creative Sean Go has curated one of the greatest private sneaker collections in the world – right here in Toronto. It boasts pairs of shoes like game worn and autographed Chicago Air Jordan 1 from MJ’s rookie season, the 1972 Nike Waffle “Moon Shoe”, Nike Mags, Undefeated 4s, Paris SB Dunks, Eminem Encore 4s, the Air Jordan 3/8 Kobe Pack, Derek Jeter 11s, NYC Pigeon Dunks, Colette Jordan 1s, Justin Timberlake 1s, DJ Khaled 3s, Travis Scott F&F 4s, the full Off-White “The Ten” collection, autographed pairs worn by the Toronto Raptors during their NBA title run, and more.
And then, somewhere along the journey, Go decided the collection would go up for auction. So a two-day event called Dare to Dream was held live at Sotheby’s, which also included over 100 luxury cars like the “Big 5” Ferraris, a 2015 McLaren P1, a 2005 Maserati MC12, and a 1955 Mercedes-Benz SL Gullwing. There’s also a ton of sports memorabilia joining the party. It’s truly a collector’s dream.

But, of course, it’s hard to auction off that many things in two days. so an online auction followed. All of the goods that were not sold in-person are now being auctioned off online, with many of them ending at 11 a.m. on June 5.
