Dubbed “The Greatest Sneaker Show on Earth,” the event brings together collectors, resellers, and streetwear enthusiasts for a high-energy marketplace featuring 100,000+ sneakers, exclusive drops, and immersive cultural experiences.

The addition brings sports collectibles into the mix, highlighted by a limited-edition trading card release of Allen Iverson, celebrating one of Philadelphia’s most iconic athletes. Iverson is also scheduled to make a special appearance for a meet-and-greet (appearance subject to change).
