Zappos, the online retailer that started it all, holds some of the rarest and hardest to acquire sneakers hidden away in its exclusive Zappos vault. The winner of this item will be the first in history to pull out one pair of extremely rare and one-of-a-kind sneakers!
A Zappos team has been acquiring and curating this collection for years. There are hundreds of sneakers in the vault, ranging from different brands and prices. The right person, with the right knowledge, will take home something truly unique and priceless.
This package also includes a private tour of the acclaimed Zappos Campus in Downtown Las Vegas along with a dinner with Zappos Chief Fungineer, Tyler Williams, in Las Vegas.
Tyler Williams worked closely with Zappos founder Tony Hsieh and is the Director of Brand Experience at Zappos.com, the experiential e-commerce company. In his role, Tyler oversees a team focused on delivering WOW to employees, the community, and Zappos customers through the creation and execution of engaging programs, unique events, and philanthropic endeavors. The Brand Experience team encourages inspirational moments that foster connection, increase engagement, and educate Zapponians. The mission, which Tyler encourages his team to aspire towards, is supporting a strong culture of authentic belonging, and enriching employees’ lives.
A Zapponian for 11 years, Tyler has worn many fun (and a little weird!) hats at Zappos. Starting in the Customer Loyalty department upon his intro to the company, he soon progressed to roles that allowed him to merge his work with his passion – including being a New Hire Trainer, a Fungineer, and the Head of Brand Aura.
Prior to joining Zappos, Tyler was a touring musician, drumming for various rock bands that toured the country. Despite his past time in the limelight, his favorite of the Zappos 10 Core Values is Be Humble. A characteristic he holds strong in both his personal and work life.
In his free time, Tyler keeps the good times rolling. With a love for all things Viking culture, his hobbies include axe-throwing, archery, and oarsmanship (rafting). And of course, once a musician, always a musician, he loves writing and recording music. Beyond the drums, Tyler also plays guitar, bass, banjo, mandolin, ukulele, piano, harmonica, and the spoons!
