 Caitlin Clark signs with Nike as a signature athlete, shoe set for release next year

Caitlin Clark has joined Nike’s roster of signature athletes, marking a new chapter in the WNBA star’s partnership with the athletic brand. Nike unveiled a custom logo for Clark, featuring interlocking Cs to represent the Indiana Fever guard. Her first signature shoe and apparel line are set to launch next year, while a T-shirt from the collection will drop on Sept. 1, with Fever colors of yellow and navy blue.

“I’m honored to join Nike’s signature roster alongside some of the greatest athletes in the world,” Clark said. “I’m excited to give fans a first look at what we’ve been creating together.” Clark’s second WNBA season has been limited by injuries, missing 24 games, including the last 15 with a right groin strain. She has not played or practiced since July 15 but participated in Indiana’s pregame shootaround Sunday in Minnesota. The former WNBA Rookie of the Year is averaging 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, and 5.0 rebounds over 13 games. Clark’s popularity, built from her NCAA scoring record at Iowa, has helped drive attendance and viewership in women’s basketball. She is the third WNBA player to earn a signature deal with Nike, following A’ja Wilson and Sabrina Ionescu.
