Hawks All-Star Trae Young’s First Signature Adidas Shoe Set To Drop In 2021

Trae Young has got himself a signature shoe from Adidas dropping soon.

The Atlanta Hawks star was on ESPN’s The Jump and revealed he has inked a multi-year extension with the brand, which will bring a signature sneaker, the Trae Young 1, in Fall 2021.

“I’m super excited,” Young said. “This is a dream come true for me. I dreamed as a kid, just playing on those little goals in your room, putting on [signature] shoes and dreaming of being that player.”

2019-20, Young ranked in the top four of the NBA in both scoring (29.6 points per game) and assists (9.3 per game). That places him in rarified air, even among stars in the league, and the Hawks surrounded him with a notable uptick in NBA-ready talent in advance of the 2020-21 season.

Young is primed for a potential All-NBA season in 2020-21 and, perhaps more importantly, he is the centerpiece of a team that projects to take a significant step next season. Clearly, Adidas is fully aware of this and now is a great time to drop his first signature sneaker and release this new swag.
