Launching on Tuesday, November 30 until Monday, December 6, the sweepstake is made up of unique and coveted prizes from StockX, the Design Museum and friends, including pairs of the Air Jordan Dior 1 High, Nike SB Supreme Red Cement, and a Supreme Vitra chair, alongside donations from Helen Kirkham, Balmain, Samuel Ross, Beatrix Ong, Reuben Dangoor and Marc Newson.
Proceeds will be donated in support of the Design Museum’s Emerging Designers Access Fund*, to aid the museum’s ongoing commitment to support the next generation of designers.
Take a look at some of the highlights below.
Air Jordan 1 High Dior
Jordan Brand connected with Parisian fashion house Dior to create history with the Jordan 1 Retro High Dior, now available on StockX. This is the first time that Jordan has collaborated with a legacy fashion label like Dior, making this release one for the books. This release was limited to only 8,500 pairs, each pair individually numbered.
LC23 Nike Dunk Low
Adding a twist of texture and craftsmanship to iconic Nike silhouettes, the LC23 Crochet Nike Dunk Low Multicolor is a piece of sneaker art. The white canvas crochet is handmade and takes two weeks to be made for each shoe, resulting in sneakers that boast high-quality craftsmanship and impeccable attention to detail.
Supreme Vitra Chair
Designed by Danish Designer, Verner Panton, and made by hand exclusively for Supreme, the Supreme Vitra Chair retailed for over $2,500 when it was released earlier this year. With its rigid polyurethane one-piece construction, glossy lacquer finish and Supreme branding, this version of the Vitra brings this iconic piece of furniture into the 21st century.
Balmain B-IT Slides
An unreleased prototype that’s not available anywhere else, these Balmain B-IT slides are fully covered by a strassed embroidery, , with one side covered in crystals and the other with black diamonds.
Helen Kirkham Reebok Zig
Helen Kirkum and Reebok come together again to reimagine the Zig. Following on from their Sole Fury collaboration, this one-off release counts 20 unique pairs of sneakers, each handmade using repurposed Reebok sneakers by Kirkum in her East London studio. This is pair 10/20 and comes with a limited edition zine exclusive to this launch and a personalised note from Helen.
About the Emerging Designers Access Fund
The Emerging Designers Access Fund was set up in April 2021 with the aim of giving free access to the museum’s programme – public programme, events, and exhibitions – to emerging designers who may face financial or other barriers to visiting the museum.
