A closer look at Jayson Tatum's latest Jordan sneakers
Jayson Tatum recently unveiled his first signature shoe, the Jordan Tatum 1. Tatum initially signed with Jordan Brand back in 2019. After four years of partnering with the company, Jordan Brand finally decided to give JT his own signature shoe line. Ever since releasing the Tatum 1s this month, Jayson has already worn different varieties and colorways of his shoe line in-game.
According to Jayson Tatum, each sneaker design represents different chapters in his basketball career. Other designs also involve memorable moments with his loved ones and other passion projects. Tatum told sources that when he was creating his first signature shoe, he automatically thought that each design should be an extension of himself.
JT was flattered to see how well fans received his sneaker designs and he is happy to now know how it feels to have his first signature shoe.
