Jordan Brand Officially Announces the Zion 2

Zion Williamson has been hitting the gym, getting himself physically and mentally prepared for the 2022-23 NBA season. He’ll be taking the court in his second signature shoe, the brand new Jordan Zion 2.

The successor to the Jordan Zion 1, the Zion 2 is built to allow Williamson to be fully locked in when on the court, while simultaneously enhancing responsiveness and comfort. This is accomplished by segmenting the shoe into three key areas: the heel for impact resistance, the middle for resilience and containment, and the toes for comfort and mobility.

The Zion 2 introduces a new concept that decouples the strobel, shifting it from a full-length unit to a focus on the heel, allowing for 20% more Zoom Air on the forefoot (thus increasing responsiveness) and a smoother, more comfortable landing on the heel following an explosive dunk. With explosiveness comes a need for containment, achieved with a performance cup sole which wraps high up the foot and a forefoot strap that works in tandem with the lacing system for optimal support.

The design of the Zion 2 marries game-changing tech to a throwback look, honoring otherworldly athletes and Nike icons of the ’80s and ’90s. It also features an evolved Zion logo. The launch colorways include “Voodoo,” inspired by New Orleans culture, and the “Hope Diamond,” which features a prism-like pattern on the tongue and around the heel.

The Jordan Zion 2 “Voodoo” drops on June 22nd, while the “Hope Diamond” colorway launches on June 30th. Catch the release on Nike.com and at select retailers. Check out both colorways below.
