A few months ago we reported that Tim Tebow signed a deal with Nike – it was one of his first endorsement deals after leaving college. Recently it was announced that Nike will be releasing a special Tim Tebow shoe in the coming weeks.

The shoe will be orange and blue. The left heel has the words “PROMISE” and “Sept. 27th, 2008,” remembering back to Tebow’s impassioned post-game speech after Florida lost to Ole Miss… a speech that lifted his teams motivation and resulted in a National Championship run.

The right heel has “2006,” 2007,” “2007,” “2007, “2008,” and “2008,” marking years where Tebow achieved certain milestones, like winning the Heisman, winning National Championships and making the All-American teams.

The tongue of the shoe will feature a prominent EA logo in reference to Tim Tebow being on the cover NCAA Football 11.

What do you think of the Tim Tebow shoe? Will you buy one? Post a comment and let us know.

EDIT: Have a picture of the shoe now.

Tim Tebow Nike Deal

It is being reported by ESPN and Gator Sports that Tim Tebow has entered, or will be entering into an endorsement contract with Nike worth a base of $300,000 per year. No one form the Tebow group has publicly confirmed the deal, but everything looks to be legit. Compared to some of the other super star athletes, a base of $300,000 doesn’t seem like a lot does it? Well, from what I’ve gathered is that this contract is heavily incentivized and Tim could see a lot more money based on several factors, like what round he is drafted, how much he plays, if he becomes a starter, where he plays, etc.

A deal with Nike makes a lot of sense for Tim Tebow. Not only does it provide financial support, but it will help increase his exposure through commercials, shoes, clothing, etc. The contract probably came easy seeing as the University of Florida has a Nike contract so the reps probably know Tebow well by now. Nike is getting a great deal out of this. If Tim becomes a star in the NFL they will have locked him up for a pretty cheap price. On the other hand, if Tebow doesn’t pan out then Nike won’t be out much money.

Nike also lost out big time on their deal with Michael Vick. Sure, Nike didn’t have to pay him all those millions of dollars but their image might have been hurt a little because of Vick’s off the field issues. By signing Tim Tebow they are guaranteed to get a high character guy and one hell of an athlete.
