Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark is offering fans a ‘first look’ at her signature collection with Nike.
Nike announced Clark as its next signature athlete on Monday, Aug. 25, and unveiled the two-time All-Star’s signature logo in anticipation of her upcoming signature collection and shoe release in 2026. The sports apparel company made the announcement by way of a 21-second commercial that features a truck driver transporting a massive backboard embellished with Clark’s logo.
It features interlocking Cs and a smaller, hidden C, that Nike says represents her ‘magnetic connection with fans around the globe who are drawn to her unwavering confidence, steadfast commitment and remarkable shooting ability’ and how ‘Caitlin’s game was built from the inside out — a product of her passion for the sport, relentless drive and constant pursuit of perfection.’
The truck driver turned the radio dial before landing on a sports radio station that said, ‘As usual, we’re talking about Caitlin Clark.’ Clark shared the ad on her social media accounts, adding, ‘Tune in.’
Clark’s signature shoe and signature collection won’t drop until next year, but fans will be able to get their hands on her logo collection on Oct. 1, which will feature T-shirts, hoodies, shorts and pants for all ages. A navy and yellow logo T-shirt will drop in North America on Sept. 1.
“I’m excited to share a first look at what we’ve started to create together,’ Clark said in a statement on Tuesday. “Nike’s signature roster features all-time greats, and I am incredibly proud to join some of the best athletes in the world.
Clark first signed an NIL deal with Nike in 2022 when she was competing at Iowa. She signed an eight-year, $28 million extension with Nike in April 2024, according to the Associates Press, after she was drafted No. 1 overall by the Fever.
