Jayson Tatum and Jordan Brand Deliver the Taco Jay 36 Shoes
Jayson Tatum continues to grow his work alongside Jordan Brand with the new Taco Jay colorway palette that adorns the Air Jordan 36 sneaker model for the season. The color palette was seen in the past as it detailed the Air Jordan 34 PE back in 2020.
It is made with inspiration from Tatum's admiration of tacos, which are a go-to after games as the athlete's family meal. The theme and the tones are bold with references to the taco ingredients including orange and green. There is the taco as the theme's mascot and it can be seen with a Swoosh resting on its head -- this is seen right on top of the lacing system with "TACO" and "JAY" on the left and right shoes.
