9-10-1-1<\/h1>\n

Significance<\/strong>: Chris Paul and his wife Jada Crawley were married on September 10, 2011, hence the group of 9 and 10 dots on the heel of the left shoe. Two separate dots also appear representing the year 2011.<\/p>\n

Chris Paul<\/strong>: “There are nine dots, and then there are 10 dots. Then there’s one and one. That’s 9-10-11. That’s the day I got married this past summer. It was September 10, 2011. That’s on the left shoe.”<\/p>\n

61<\/h1>\n

Significance<\/strong>: 61 triangles are placed throughout the Jordan CP3.V’s midfoot area. These triangles pay tribute to Chris Paul scoring 61 points in a high school game for his grandfather who died at 61 years of age. Chris Paul has paid tribute to his grandfather in his previous signatures as well.<\/p>\n

Tom Luedecke<\/strong> (Jordan CP3.V designer): “There are 61 triangles on this shoe, which directly relate to Chris Paul’s grandfather.”<\/p>\n

Shoe Size<\/h1>\n

Significance<\/strong>: Chris Paul and Tom Luedecke came up with the idea to have the shoe size visible to the eye much like the heel detail on a bowling shoe. The Jordan CP3.V’s shoe size is placed on the outsole of the sneaker in representation of Chris Paul’s love for bowling. This is one of two details symbolizing Paul’s infatuation with bowling.<\/p>\n

Chris Paul<\/strong>: “Everybody knows that I love to bowl. When you go to the bowling alley and get your shoes, one of the first things you see is the size of them on the back. So, on the bottom of every shoe (CP3.V) is the shoe size. We didn’t do it just because we think people are dumb, it’s just a testament to how much I love to bowl.”<\/p>\n

5-2-4-9<\/h1>\n

Significance<\/strong>: Chris Paul’s son, Chris Paul Jr., was born on May 24, 2009. To highlight his proud father moment, Jordan Brand incorporated four groups to represent Chris Paul Jr.’s birth date, From left to right, a group of five dots stands for the month of May. Two dots, along with a group of four dots to the right, represent the 24th. Lastly, a group of nine dots symbolize the year Paul Jr. was born, 2009.<\/p>\n

Chris Paul<\/strong>: “There are five dots, then there are two dots, four dots followed by nine dots. That’s 5-24-2009. That’s the birthday of my son.”<\/p>\n

336<\/h1>\n

Significance<\/strong>: The numbers ‘336’ appear on each lace tip in representation of Lewisville, North Carolina area code. Chris Paul was born and raised here.<\/p>\n

Chris Paul<\/strong>\ud83d\ude15 It says ‘336’. That’s the area code for my hometown. That’s been on my shoes for the past three years. I did that so everybody back at home knows it’s for them.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

10<\/h1>\n

Significance<\/strong>: 10 dots are placed at the top of the Jordan CP3.V’s toe box in a triangular pattern. This is the second symbol on the CP3.V that serves as a nod to Chris Paul’s adoration for bowling.<\/p>\n

Chris Paul<\/strong>: “These dots are shaped together in the form of bowling pins. It’s just another way of showing I love to bowl.”<\/p>\n
