Caitlin Clark Debuts the Nike Caitlin 1 “Purple” On-Court

The Story

Caitlin Clark debuted a new "Purple" colorway of her signature Nike Caitlin 1 during a recent WNBA matchup

The low-cut basketball model features a soft lavender upper with layered multi-colored Swoosh branding

The colorway is expected to land during the Holiday 2026 season following the model's official debut in October

Nike and Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark continue to build momentum for her upcoming signature line with a first look at the Nike Caitlin 1 “Purple”. The superstar guard debuted the soft lavender pair on-court, offering fans a fourth visual preview of the low-cut basketball shoe ahead of its formal retail launch.

The latest version comes dressed almost entirely in soft lavender across the textured upper, laces, tongue, and midsole. A darker purple gradient adds visual depth along the upper while maintaining a tonal look, gradually transitioning into white accents toward the bottom of the shoe.

Layered Swoosh logos bring blue, white, and bronze details along the side panels, complemented by blue “CC” branding on the tongue. The shoe retains the low-cut build and textured construction seen on previous blue, yellow, and white pairs. The game also marked another career milestone for Clark, who became the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 200 three-pointers in just 74 games.

An official release date for the Nike Caitlin 1 “Purple” has not yet been announced, but the silhouette officially launches in the “Racer Blue” colorway on October 1, 2026.
