Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Signs Sneaker Deal with 361°
One of the many perks of being the defending NBA Champions is the influx of endorsement deals. Perhaps no company is more eager to work with Denver Nuggets players than the Chinese sneaker brand 361°.
On Friday night, Nick DePaula of Boardroom broke the news that Nuggets shooting guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope has signed a sneaker deal with 361°.
Caldwell-Pope had worn Nike since his college days with the Georgia Bulldogs through his first ten seasons in the NBA. However, the veteran shooting guard quickly made the switch from Nike to 361° earlier this season.
Caldwell-Pope becomes the third player on the Nuggets roster to become a basketball ambassador for the Chinese brand. Aaron Gordon is on his fourth signature sneaker with 361°, and Nikola Jokic officially joined the budding brand on Christmas Day 2023.
361° was founded in 2003 as a running shoe manufacturer before expanding its catalog into athletic apparel and basketball shoes. With distribution and offices in almost every continent, 361° products are in over 6,000 stores worldwide.
Our friends over at KICKS CREW make it easy for basketball fans in the United States to find sneakers from foreign brands that are worn by NBA players.
If the Nuggets and the 361° continue to find success, the sky is the limit for all parties involved. Follow FanNation Kicks to learn more about what your favorite athletes wear on and off the court.
