Andrew Rizzo To the delight of Boston Celtics fans, Jayson Tatum is already back on the court just four months removed from a devastating achilles injury suffered during the NBA playoffs. He’ll still miss significant time in the 2025–26 season, but much like his idol Kobe Bryant, there’s a decent chance the 27-year-old star is able to return sooner than expected, as he appears to be making unprecedented progress according to his doctors.
For our purposes, that means there’s a chance we might see Tatum lace up his latest signature shoe — the Jordan Tatum 4 — on-court sometime this season. After being unveiled in rather unconventional fashion on the cover of NBA 2K26, official images of a “Bloodline” edition slated for November 2025 have now surfaced.
The black and red “Bloodline” makeup has become something of a must when it comes to Jordan models, from Luka Dončić’s signature shoes to non-signature cuts like the Jordan Heir. We’re also due to get a Jordan 12 “Bloodline” in 2026.
Speaking to the core of Jordan Brand’s DNA, the Tatum 4 is here anchored by a timeless combination of black, white, and “University Red.” The model features a Cushlon 3.0 midsole, Air Zoom in the forefoot, and a midfoot stability shank for containment. The overarching aesthetic continues the theme of the Tatum 3 with a focus on curved lines, but it’s far more stripped down with less material and simpler paneling.
The Jordan Tatum 4 “Bloodline” releases November 1st, 2025, for $130 and will be available via nike.com and select retailers. See official images below if you’re considering testing out a pair.
