It’s official; Nike today announced Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark as the brand’s newest signature athlete. What’s more is that Nike also unveiled her signature logo; two interwoven Cs for the WNBA player’s initials.
This headline could have been drafted when Caitlin Clark signed an NIL deal with Nike in 2022, then again when she signed an eight-year extension as a pro in 2024. Clark’s impact on the rise of women’s basketball has been immense; just look at the TV rating spikes and ticket price surges that occur any time she takes the court. As such, she’s an obvious choice to join the ranks of Sabrina Ionescu and A’ja Wilson among signature Nike WNBAers.
The Caitlin Clark signature logo features two Cs as a tribute to Clark’s “magnetic connection with fans around the globe,” as Nike puts it. A smaller C can be found between the larger letters, representing how her “game was built from the inside out.”
“At Nike, we’ve always drawn inspiration not only from the world’s greatest athletes but also from those who elevate the spirit of sport itself. Caitlin exemplifies both — an exceptional basketball player and an outstanding ambassador for the game,” says Ann Miller, EVP, Nike Global Sports Marketing. “We’re excited to take this next step together, continuing to shape this historic time for women’s basketball, and pushing the game and industry forward.”
With the signature logo unveiling, Nike also confirms that a Caitlin Clark shoe is in the works and scheduled to debut in 2026. Clark has been rocking and releasing Kobe Bryant shoes in the meantime, including her first PE drop in the Kobe 5 Protro “Indiana Fever” from June 2025. The Kobe 6 Protro “Light Armory Blue” is next up on our release calendar, followed by the Nike Kobe 5 Protro “Rookie Of The Year” for Spring 2026.
For now, fans can look forward to a navy/yellow Caitlin Clark logo tee releasing through nike.com on September 1st (North America only). The rest of Clark’s logo apparel collection will launch October 1st.
“To me, this is more than just a logo, it’s a dream come true,” says Clark. “People always talk about leaving your mark on the game — and this is another way I can do that.”
