And that gift is no less than a pair of Air Jordan 4s! Well, Santa might be an entendre for his employer because he is a Jordan brand athlete. Because, well, as sad as it is for every child out there, Santa isn’t actually real. Even though everyone wished he was.
The shoe in question is actually the Air Jordan 4 Retro in the “Red Thunder” colorway. And that shoe originally retailed for around $190, but the current price starts at a whopping $350 and can go all the way up to $420. Wow, Santa sure was feeling generous towards him, wasn’t he?

In an interview with Complex, Hamlin revealed, I get my monthly shipment which is really, really good. It’s good to get things a month in advance before they come out. It’s cool, I’ve got them on my suit, my shoes, my gloves. When you meet the celebrities who come out to the races for the weekend, you shake their hands and I’m the only guy with the Jordan logo. And they say to me, “Oh man, Jordan Brand, that’s cool.” It’s because it’s out of the realm of what people perceive Jordan Brand to do.”
Turns out, Hamlin gets so many that he has to distribute some, “All the new stuff that comes out, we make sure we take care of them with all the Jordans that they need. I get one of everything that’s made, and I can’t keep it all. So I go through it all and give the rest to the team guys.”
