There haven’t been many players in the history of the NBA as unique or disruptive as Zion Williamson. The combination of his strength and athleticism has rarely been seen in any sport.
The hulking Williamson stands at 6´7” and 284 lbs which currently makes him the 3rd heaviest player in the NBA. His massive frame seems to have no effect on his leaping ability. Night after night, he turns in some of the most vicious dunks you will ever see. He draws comparisons to the great Shaquille O’Neal, Karl Malone, and LeBron James because of his skill and size. But, he has a style all his own. The young Sneakers 3 Point Low S11453-CHA-PS013 Pink Wht Nbk and is already showing signs of becoming an all-time great.
Naturally, a player of his caliber is a prime candidate for receiving a signature shoe and that is exactly what “Zanos” is getting.

Zion Williamson Shoes: Jordan Brand.
Back in 2019, Zion signed a seven-year deal with Jordan Brand worth $75 million and since then sneaker fans have been eager to see the Zion signature model. The much-awaited shoe is here at last: the Zion 1.
The Zion 1 was designed to accommodate the unique athleticism of the gigantic power forward’s game. The shoe features a full-length Air Strobel unit with an additional stacked, bottom-loaded Zoom Air unit for cushioning, a wide base that provides extra stability, and good old reliable herringbone traction. One of the shoe’s unique features is the flexible and articulated tongue. This tongue was a focus point for Jordan Brand and provides targeted padding and unique stitching patterns to help ease lace pressure and to provide a snug fit. It’s supposedly “inspired by superhero armor and it provides protection, breathability, and freedom of movement all at the same time”.
Zion 3
Something weird seems to be happening with Zion Williamson’s signature. The Zion 1 was a light-weight, plastic-y, shoe with decent cushioning, but little else. The Jordan 14 Hyper Royal Matching Sneaker Tees Shirt White Just A Kid, it was a robust, grippy, well-cushioned tank of a shoe and seemed well-suited for a player as physical as Zion Williamson. If Jordan Brand had decided to build upon this design and maintain its focal performance features, that would have made sense for Zion’s playing style going forward.

Instead, they created a low-profile, lightweight, Kobe-adjacent hoop shoe. This is by no means a bad thing as far as the shoe’s on-court performance goes but it is odd. It breaks all ties with the Zion signature line-up to this point, and, simply put, this shoe doesn’t feel like it was built for a 6’6″, 284 lbs power player like Zion.

Not a bad deal at all. Be mindful of the fit, but aside from that, this is a top-notch performance model.
Zion 2
The Zion 2 was released in 2022 and made some definite improvements to the previous Zion model. While not amazing, the materials used on the shoe are a definite upgrade, as is the traction. On top of that, it also packs a ton of cushioning tech. The Zion 2 features forefoot Zoom Air, the midsole is built with injected Phylon-like, and there is a half Air Strobel dept_Clothing shoe-care storage suitcases Multi pens accessories Shorts.

Spartanburg was an Adidas team, so naturally, we got to see him rocking several different Adidas models including the Harden Vol.1, the D Lillard 2, and the Crazy Explosive Low 2017. All three of these shoes are cushion-heavy guard shoes, well-suited to handle the play of a dense and explosive player. We also got to see Zion play in the Kyrie 2, but maybe this model’s lack of cushioning was the reason we didn’t see them in Zion’s rotation as much.

During his time as a Blue Devil, Zion switched over to Nike for his footwear. He once again reached for guard shoes that offered a good amount of cushion and mobility to cater to his game. Zion mainly wore Kyries and PGs, but he was gifted, as all Duke players are, a plethora of Nike kicks including Blue-Devil-exclusive Lebron 16s and Kobe AD Exodus.

Zion’s biggest sneaker moment at Duke was not a good one. Zion wore the PG 2s and the PG 2.5s fairly consistently that season. In February of 2019, Duke was set to play their archrival UNC. The game was sold out and President Barack Obama was in attendance.
Zion strapped on a pair of Nike PG 2.5s in a white and blue Duke Colorway. Just 36 seconds into the game, Zion planted his foot to make a spin move and, as he did, the shoe blew up and his foot shot out of it. He awkwardly fell on the hardwood and had to leave the game with a knee strain. The hysteria that followed was remarkable. Every news outlet had a different analysis on how the shoe broke. Nike’s stock fell dramatically and pundits speculated on whether or not Zion should be shut down for the season to not risk further injury. The fact of the matter is that Zion just had bad luck wearing a very good shoe way too much.

He was named to the 2021 NBA All-Star Team and he improved his stats to 26 points, 7 rebounds, and almost 4 assists per game. But his crowning achievement for the year has to be getting his own signature shoe with Jordan Brand. It must be good to be Zanos.
