Christmas brought a double dose of cheer for NBA standout Jayson Tatum, with a win for his Boston Celtics against the Los Angeles Lakers and the unveiling of his second signature shoe collaboration with Jordan Brand, the Tatum 2.

Reflecting on the moment, Tatum shared, “To go from having my first signature shoe to now unveiling my second, it’s like living out a dream. The kid in me can’t believe it’s real.”

Crafted with Tatum’s dynamic playing style in mind, the Tatum 2 boasts innovative features tailored to his on-court finesse, combining precision and power seamlessly. Its construction incorporates strategically positioned foam and textile pods to alleviate pressure points during intense gameplay, while the modified herringbone traction pattern on the outsoles offers optimal grip where it matters most. Additionally, the shoe incorporates a proprietary Air Strobel for enhanced responsiveness and durability, ensuring a smooth and agile performance.

In terms of design, the Tatum 2 draws inspiration from the vibrant and audacious aesthetic of ’90s basketball shoes, with bold elements and striking details. Personal touches, including Tatum’s jersey number, signature, and his son’s name, infuse the design with a unique and intimate touch.

Set to be available in kids’ sizes as well, the Tatum 2 features a collapsible injected TPU tailgate system, allowing for effortless wear and removal. The debut color
