Caitlin Clark unveiled her first Nike signature sneaker, the Caitlin 1, on June 17, 2026. The Indiana Fever guard joined Angel Reese, Breanna Stewart, Sabrina Ionescu and A'ja Wilson as the latest active WNBA player to earn a branded model.

The release follows Clark’s hints throughout the week, including a new Instagram name and a bracelet marked "10‑01‑26" that foreshadowed the October launch. Nike’s design process involved mood boards and Easter‑egg details, from initials‑shaped Swooshes to under‑foot messages.

Key features include Nike Opticast technology that slashes drag and boosts court speed, as well as color palettes that reflect Clark’s expressive style. The shoe drops at $140 in North America and $135 worldwide, accompanied by an 18‑piece apparel line.

Clark’s arrival in the sneaker market follows a resurgence of WNBA signature models since 2011, marking a new chapter for female basketball branding and expanding consumer options for fans.
