Air Jordan XXXVI 'Taco Jay'

Prep for the game by lacing up your AJs, win the game by channeling the heat of “Taco Jay.” The 36th generation of Air Jordan celebrates the newest superstars to build the game, and this model is all about Jayson Tatum. Bridging tunnel style with performance tech, the design pays homage to Jay's intensity on the court—and fiery hot-sauce-and-cheese inspired colors nod to his favorite post-game food.

Crave the Look

Jayson Tatum's favorite food is tacos, which is why he goes by the nickname Taco Jay. Fun taco graphics abound while "TACO JAY" is written on the insole and pull tabs.

Add Spice to Your Game

Bold colors add energy to every step while nodding to Tatum's toppings of choice: extra cheese and hot sauce.

Light Feel, Big Energy

A full-length Zoom Air Strobel unit is stitched directly to the upper, sitting right under your foot to minimize weight. Meanwhile, an energy-returning Zoom Air unit is stacked underneath the forefoot to add an extra burst of responsiveness off the dribble.

Secure for Takeoff

High collar and top eyelets provide side-to-side stability, whether you're cutting off the ball or taking off to finish.

More Benefits

• Multidirectional outsole pattern provides stop-and-go traction for players who stay on their toes and use quickness to get to their spots.
• Dynamic, flexible tongue includes targeted padding over the top to ease lace pressure, providing plush comfort without added weight.
• Hollowed-out section between the outsole and midsole helps reduce weight and exposes the shoe's stabilizing shank (a piece of durable plastic that helps keep the shoe from twisting).
