On the topic of crazy collections, DJ Christian “Bigboy” Cheng can't be left off the list. His name extends beyond his business endeavors across sectors but is primarily renowned through his interests and hobbies, with sneakers being a focal point in his distinction.
A curator of various art mediums, Cheng’s sneaker closet/museum appears regularly on the YouTube channels of the platform’s biggest sneakerheads and coveted retail spaces. Through their brief trips to the country, he regularly invites these personalities for an exclusive visit to his sanctuary.
Among those who have nurtured a relationship with him, PROJECT BLITZ’s founder Andre Ljustina (commonly known as Croatian Style) tributes “Bigboy” in a recent “Sneak Peek” episode produced by Nice Kicks.

From unseen and limited releases to game-worn and one-of-one player exclusives, PROJECT BLITZ’s vault is reportedly valued at around $10 million in footwear. As Ljustina shared with Nice Kicks the origins of several of the acquired pairs, “Sneak Peek” host Dez Moore asked the owner of the Los Angeles-based nook if he had ever come across a collection similar to the PROJECT BLITZ inventory.
“I mean there are definitely a couple of people out there—Bigboy Cheng in the Philippines. Amazing guy—really good energy, a really good person. He has got a lot of amazing stuff in his collection,” Ljustina mentioned during the interview.
