Tatum's first signature shoe is expected to be called the Jordan Tatum 1. However, the name is subject to change. According to Tatum, the performance basketball shoe will launch in March 2023.

According to reports from Sole Retriever, at least three colorways are already planned for Summer 2023. The “Zoo,” "St. Louis,” and “Pink Lemonade" colorways will enjoy general releases. The Jordan Tatum 1 will cost $120 in adult sizes.

There are still no official images or tech specs. Of course, Tatum has worked closely with Jordan Brand on the design of his shoe. He even told Bensinger that he has a sample pair at his house.

After starting his career with Nike, Tatum signed a multi-year deal with Jordan Brand in July 2019. Over the past three years, Tatum has regularly worn the flagship Air Jordan models in Player Exclusive (PE) colorways.

Tatum joins a strong cast of signature athletes for Jumpman. Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic, New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson, and Los Angeles Lakers guard Russell Westbrook all have signature sneaker lines with Jordan Brand.
