A report out of China last week said Nike has renewed its endorsement deal with Jeremy Lin and that plans for a Lin signature shoe is in the works. Nike is neither confirming nor denying this, but the company did start selling Lin-themed shoes, through the Nike iD customization process, on its website this weekend.
The $130 Nike Zoom Hyperfuse Low iD is not available at retail, but Nike is giving consumers the opportunity to create a shoe just like the one Lin has been wearing this season. Lin’s name can also be added to the tongue.
"Fans can utilize nikeid.com to create and purchase this shoe or other versions that include their own design inspiration," Nike spokesperson Brian Strong said, per Newsday.
LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant, as well as Jordan Brand endorsers Carmelo Anthony, Chris Paul and Dwyane Wade, are the only current NBA players to have Nike signature shoes, The Oregonian noted.
When asked when Lin will get his own line of shoes, Strong said, "We are not commenting on any speculation around future plans for Jeremy."
