Dan Hajducky, a staff writer for ESPN, reports that Hope Solo’s personal collection is headed to auction. The Richland, Washington native has consigned more than 45 lots to Lelands 2026 Summer Classic Auction, running from July 26 to August 15. Solo’s signed, photo‑matched jersey and shorts worn in the United States’ 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup Final victory over Japan, along with her title ring, are among the items offered. Other pieces include her Golden Glove award and signed jerseys from the quarter‑final and semi‑final wins over China and Germany, respectively, from that tournament. The collection also features her 2014 and 2016 CONCACAF Women’s Championship and Olympic‑Qualifying Golden Glove awards, and a signed jersey from the 2016 Olympics group‑stage match against Colombia.

Solo said, “With soccer’s popularity in the U.S. reaching new heights around this World Cup, it felt like the right time to let these pieces of my career become part of this sport’s history in new hands… I hope whoever adds these pieces to their collections feels the same connection to this game that I have.” She was named the 2009 U.S. Soccer Female Athlete of the Year and was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame in 2023 after amassing 202 caps.

Jordan Gilroy, director of acquisitions at Lelands, added, “We’re honored to offer these and other authentic pieces.” An unspecified portion of proceeds will benefit She Belongs, a soccer‑centered nonprofit for young women, refugees and underserved communities.
