I visited Dennis to tour what might be the most extraordinary sneaker collection in the UK. Over 200 pairs with an estimated value of $200,000, including some of the rarest sneakers ever produced anywhere in the world.
The collection includes game-worn, signed Kobe Bryant Player Exclusive (PE) sneakers, the Nike SB Dunk High “FLOM” (For Love or Money) by Futura, one of only 24 pairs ever made, with three of those raffled to the public and a pair of Japan “Rising Sun” Dunks of which only three exist in the world.
There are original 1985 Air Jordan 1 “Chicago” OGs, vintage Nike SB Dunks, Off-White sneakers by the late Virgil Abloh. What makes this collection truly unique is the complete Kanye West pre-Yeezy archive. Dennis owns the Kanye West x Bape “Dropout Bear” Bapesta Kanye’s first ever public sneaker collaboration, alongside the ultra-rare Kanye West x Reebok S. Carter (approximately 50 pairs per colorway were ever produced), and the full Kanye West x Louis Vuitton collection including the Louis Vuitton Jasper.
