Jayson Tatum is healing like he studied with Professor X. Just four months after a devastating Achilles injury during last year’s playoffs, Tatum posted a video of himself back on the court hooping, and showed up to Celtics media day walking without assistance to answer questions, where he left the door open to return to the league sometime this coming season.
The new energy behind Tatum’s recovery timeline fits perfectly with the release of the Jordan Tatum 4. Tatum wore the debut St. Louis colorway of the shoe to media day, and now, we’ve got official images of a Bloodline colorway that first came to life in the digital world of NBA 2K. The first colorway of the shoe we saw, thanks to the team at 2K, the Bloodline colorway starts with a black base, weaving white lines through the upper, and adding red accents on the JT and Jumpman logos, and the midfoot stability pod.
When Tatum was expected to miss the entire season, the NBA 2K debut was a fun way to feature a shoe that seemed like it wouldn’t see the court on its signature star this year. Now, though, with Tatum already lacing up the St. Louis colorway for his return to the court, we’ve got our hopes up. In the vlog where Tatum shows off his speedy recovery, he also gives us an inside look at a meeting with Jordan Brand designers where they discuss the Bloodline colorway and materials for the midfoot shank.
The Jordan Tatum 4 Bloodline will be released Holiday 2025 through Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers in-store and online. Available in a full family size run, the prices are set at $130 (adult), $95 (GS), $75 (PS), and $55 (TD).
