Nike isn’t leaving much to chance when it comes to Caitlin Clark shoes, avoiding leaks at all costs by letting Clark herself deliver first looks at the colorways set to define her debut model’s opening run. On the heels of a stunning overtime loss at the hands of Chelsea Gray, A’ja Wilson, and the rest of the Las Vegas Aces, Clark has taken to Instagram with detailed shots of a previously unseen Caitlin 1 “Hot Punch.”
Sneaker News can confirm that this isn’t a PE, but rather one of several public releases already planned for the model. The titular Hot Punch shade dominates the upper, while a softer Neo Pink takes over the midsole. That same Neo Pink appears within the layered side Swooshes, while Clark’s signature logo appears in a rich royal blue.
The Nike Caitlin 1 “Hot Punch” is currently expected to release Holiday 2026 for $140 in adult sizes. We’ll circle back with official images and a firm release date as the launch draws closer.
In other basketball sneaker news, it looks like Nike is preparing to debut a new Kobe model.
