New Member






Miami Heat's Dwyane Wade will now be joining the ranks of some of NBA’s greatest players such as Kobe and LeBron in Nike Basketball roster. More precisely, a new member to Nike's Jordan Brand. Commenting on his signing with Jordan Brand, Wade said , “For me, the move to Jordan Brand is a dream come true. As a kid, I grew up on the south side of Chicago idolizing Michael Jordan and have worked hard to achieve the same success that he’s had on the court. I have enormous respect for this brand and all that it stands for. I’m humbled to be a part of the Team Jordan family and I’m looking forward to a great future.”

While having Wade leave the Converse team is sad news for the brand, Converse made a well-wishing statement for this switch, “CONVERSE has enjoyed being a part of Dwyane’s meteoric rise to the top of the basketball world. We have had an amazing professional and personal relationship with him and we thank Dwyane for his commitment to our brand. As he joins Jordan Brand, we know his Chicago roots and his on-and off-court style will be a great fit.”

Though there are no news yet on specially designed Jordans for Wade, but we will definitely be watching out for the possibility. via: solecollector
