Ideal Player: Play/Guardia/Leggero
Come calza: Regolare

The Nike Caitlin 1 "Caitlin Blue" is Caitlin Clark's first signature shoe — and the Racer Blue is not just a color. It’s the sky above Iowa, the infinite range of a shot starting from half court, the color Caitlin has carried with her from college to the WNBA to the pinnacle of world basketball. The most anticipated shoe of 2026 is finally here.

Caitlin Clark has changed basketball. Not just women's basketball — all basketball. The Indiana Fever guard has driven the WNBA to unprecedented audience levels, won the FIBA World Cup title with the USA in 2026, led the Fever to the top of the Eastern Conference. And now she has her very own Nike signature shoe — custom-built for her game: that lightning step-back that creates space from nowhere, that explosive first step no defender can anticipate, that ability to score from any position with a confidence that makes the extraordinary seem normal.

The heart of the Caitlin 1 is the Nike Opticast technology — a revolutionary upper in flexible and durable cast-PU, with "CC" and "22" shaped nodes distributed across the entire upper. They are not decorative: they are designed to reduce aerodynamic drag and improve on-court efficiency, hugging the foot with lightweight and precise support that doesn’t weigh down or restrict. The Air Zoom Turbo unit in the forefoot area — flexible, bendable, responsive — converts every step and every step-back into pure energy. The full-length Cushlon foam midsole completes the cushioning system with controlled softness in every condition.

Caitlin was involved in every stage of the design — obsessed with detail, color, function. The CC logo and number 22 on the tongue, the insole with her signature: every millimeter of this shoe tells something about her.
