Jordan revealed the latest Mexican breakfast-inspired sneakers -- the Tyson Tatum 1 sneakers. The shoe is available in a 'Huevos Bancheros' PE edition and was styled by Orlando Magic player Paolo Banchero. The sneaker model is based on Boston Celtic player Jayson Tatum, a four-time NBA all-star.
Paolo Banchero took inspiration from huevos rancheros, a classic Mexican breakfast consisting of eggs, tortillas, and salsa. As a result, the sneaker's design on its uppers contains most colors similar to huevos rancheros. Specifically, the mesh panels, TPU frame, and heel molds are beige identical to a cooked tortilla. The colors of egg yolk and black pepper are also shown through the lacing system and borders of the TPU frame. The interior lining is similar to salsa and chorizo, and the tongues are similar to avocado and chilies. Additionally, the insoles have wording that says, "Gameday Brunch, Now Serving Huevos Bancheros."
