Did Justin Timberlake Almost Have His Own Jordan Sneaker? – Sole Collector

Justin Timberlake'srelationship with Jordan Brand can be dated all the way back to 2013 when the brand created a collection of exclusiveAir Jordan styles forhis "Legends of Summer" tour with Jay-Z, but it sounds like there was a chance that hecould've gotten his very own Jordanmodel.

As the latest guest on Complex's hit series Hot Ones, he revealed that he was in discussion with the brand and designer Tinker Hatfield about reworkingtwo or three silhouettes as well as possibly creating his own sneaker. Additional details regarding thediscussionwere not disclosed, so it's uncertain if the talks are ongoing.

"There was a moment where Tinker [Hatfield]and the brandwere going to make a new shoe for mefor a tour," Timberlake recalled."Our first meeting, Tinker was kind of sitting there and we're talking about inspiration, where we're headed, who are your idols, and he came back six months later and that's when we started talking about an actual sneaker.There are probably two or three other ones that we've talked about reworking or sort of innovating."

Jordan Brand did introduce the Air Jordan 3"Tinker" in 2018, although the design wasn't specifically linked to Timberlakebut was insteadinspired by anoriginal sketch of the popular model. Timberlake got his own version of theJordan 3 Tinker dubbed "JTH," which hedebuted at the NFL Super Bowl LII halftime show and new colorways were availablethroughouthis "Man of the Woods" tour.
