Andrew Rizzo Since 2008, Nike has been committed to helping fight cancer through its partnership with the Kay Yow Cancer Fund, dressing its foremost basketball sneakers in pink colorways and donating a portion of proceeds to support the cause. Here we get a first look at a potential 2026 release, a pink take on the impending GT Cut 4 basketball silhouette.
Emerging as part of a broader wave of GT Cut 4 styles alongside red, blue, and yellow takes, the design keeps things straightforward with a monochrome pink colorway accented by metallic silver on the Swooshes and lace tips. The heel does away with the model’s usual encircled “GT” branding, replacing it with the Kay Yow ribbon logo.
Kay Yow was a legendary American women’s basketball coach, known for her incredible collegiate success and for coaching the U.S. Olympic team to a gold medal in 1988. Perhaps the most recognizable example of Kay Yow Nike sneakers comes via Kevin Durant’s line of “Aunt Pearl” releases, one of the most iconic and universally beloved design themes in the shoe game.
No release info for the GT Cut 4 “Kay Yow” has been announced as of this writing, but we’ll update our coverage as soon as that changes. For now, enjoy official images below.
