Overview

  • Nike introduced Clark’s interlocking‑C logo and set her first signature shoe and apparel collection for 2026.
  • A navy and yellow logo T‑shirt arrives in North America on Sept. 1, with a broader logo apparel line launching Oct. 1 for all ages.
  • A 21‑second teaser spot debuted as Clark shared a “tune in” preview on social media.
  • Clark becomes the third WNBA player with a Nike signature line, following A’ja Wilson and Sabrina Ionescu, after a reported eight‑year, $28 million deal signed in 2024.
  • Analysts point to strong demand after June’s Fever‑colored Kobe sellout, as Clark remains sidelined with a right groin strain and has not played or practiced since July 15, though she joined Sunday’s pregame shootaround.
