ShoeZuem


What's on your feet? What do you get when you mix a warehouse, a sneakerhead and over 2,000 pairs of sneakers? You get ShoeZeum! ShoeZeum is the largest collection of Nikes owned by Sneakerhead Jordan Michael Geller. This collection consists of 2,500 new and never worn Nikes. Originally located in San Diego, Geller's work of art now sits in downtown Las Vegas and takes up 7,500 square feet of sneaker greatness. He started collecting sneakers as a child, growing up watching his dad buy running shoes and Air Jordans. Like father, like son, Geller started to take a liking to the upcoming culture. His dad would tell him stories about sneakers and why they had a purpose. This would soon become Geller's life long passion and fate seemed to prove it even as he finished law school with the bar number 234523. Jordan Michael Geller may share a similar name with his "Airness," Michael Jordan, but even more ironic is that his bar number shares the same numbers that Jordan wore during his basketball career. Now, that's fresh! The ShoeZeum opened in April 2012 and has been certified as the largest shoe collection in the world by the Guinness Book of World Records. The ShoeZeum is opened from 4pm-12am daily for visitors to view the 23 shoe exhibits at an admission of $10.00. Geller is one of the few that keep the passion of being a sneakerhead alive, so if your ever in Las Vegas make sure to visit this great work of art. Enjoy and stay fresh!!
