Zion Williamson’s unavailability to play has not affected his star power. Despite playing only 151 games in his career, Zion Williamson is already on his third signature sneaker with Michael Jordan‘s Jordan Brand. After dropping a preview for the world to see earlier in October, Zion Williamson is set to release his newest version of the Zion 3s called ‘Pink Lotus’ later this month.
The shoes are expected to be released on January 30th and will be priced at $140 retail. The monochrome pink shoes go with Zion’s ‘Out the Mud’ theme. The entirety of the shoe represents a lotus’ ability to flourish and bloom even in the muddiest of waters, which aligns perfectly with Zion’s motto.

According to Sneaker News, the unique pattern on the shoes is a 3D image of Zion’s feet splashing mud onto the shoes. The heel of the shoe has a red Jumpman logo encased in a black square. The all-pink shoe also has Zion’s logo on the back. While other iterations of the Zion 3s have already been widely accepted, his newest colorway is sure to set the tone for Zion’s goals as a professional athlete.
The Zion 3 was initially released in July 2023; however, its newest version is going to get fans excited for more collaborations from Jordan Brand and Zion. With Zion living up to expectations and putting an end to all the noise against him, his insane contract with the Jordan Brand is finally paying off.
