Nike Caitlin 1 Launches October 1 for Indiana Fever Guard

Nike Caitlin 1

Nike and Caitlin Clark have officially unveiled the Caitlin 1, the Indiana Fever guard’s first signature basketball shoe. The shoe releases October 1, 2026, at $140 in North America and $135 globally through Nike.com and Nike Basketball stockists worldwide.

Clark has worn Nike Kobe models throughout her WNBA career, including collaborative Kobe 5 and Kobe 6 editions. The Caitlin 1 marks her debut as a signature athlete with Nike. Clark said the shoe reflects her playing approach, stating, ‘Having my own shoe has been a dream for as long as I can remember, and seeing it come to life is pretty incredible. I wanted it to reflect how I play, fast, confident, and ready to let it fly.’

The Caitlin 1 introduces Nike’s new Opticast upper, constructed from PU nodes with varied Z-heights designed to reduce drag and improve movement on court. The shoe pairs Cushlon cushioning with a forefoot Air Zoom Turbo unit positioned closer to the foot than other Air units for a responsive feel.

The initial launch features a blue colorway. Clark has teased additional makeups, including an all-black version and a green pair. An 18-piece apparel collection of jackets, hoodies, and t-shirts releases alongside the shoe on October 1.
