Caitlin Clark has officially joined Nike as their newest signing athlete, enhancing the company’s collaboration with WNBA players.
This announcement came from Nike on Monday, introducing a new logo tied to Clark, who plays for the Indiana Fever.
Her inaugural signature shoe and apparel line is set to launch next year. The logo collection will debut on October 1, followed by a colorful clothing line in yellow and navy blue a month earlier.
“It’s an honor to be part of Nike’s signature roster, which includes some of the greatest athletes ever. I’m genuinely excited to create alongside them,” Clark expressed in a statement. “We can’t wait to unveil what we’ve been working on.”
Clark struggled with injuries last season, missing 24 games and hasn’t participated in practice or games since July 15.
Nevertheless, she managed to join the pre-game shootaround for Indiana on Sunday in Minnesota.
As last season’s WNBA Rookie of the Year, she averaged 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, and 5.0 rebounds across 13 games.
Clark has notably boosted women’s basketball viewership and attendance, making waves as a top scorer in Iowa.
In June, Nike released a new line of Kobe Bryant’s signature sneakers, which quickly sold out upon release.
Clark becomes the third WNBA player to secure a deal with Nike, joining A’ja Wilson and Sabrina Ionescu, with Wilson’s products having launched this year.
