The Nike ST Charge has created its own motion. After initially being billed as an overseas-exclusive model built for the streetball game, the rugged silhouette has made its way to the United States by way of Cade Cunningham. He’s notched multiple colorways under his belt, including a bold red colorway he wore during the 2026 NBA All-Star Game, a Detroit Tough rendition, and the upcoming Bowie colorway. Now, we have early previews of the first collaborative colorway on the model thanks to Frank Nitty’s DEAD Serene.
DEAD Serene x Nike ST. Charge Details
DEAD Serene, owned by Big 3 and Drew League star Franky Nitty, goes for an eye-catching aesthetic on its debut Nike collab. “Built to celebrate success, culture, and the ones bold enough to stand out. This colorway isn’t about fitting in—it’s about being impossible to ignore,” said Nitty on Instagram. The collab colorway starts with a blue mesh base that shifts to purple as it meets the spike-like Monster Skin that wraps around the silhouette. Black on the tongue and sockliner, and silver metal eyelets help to ground the model. The rubber armor matches purple with speckles of blue from the upper for good measure.
DEAD Serene branding appears throughout the shoe, including the heel tab, left tongue tab, across the purple laces, and the included accessories. The theming continues underfoot with “DEAD” and “SERENE” appearing on translucent Under the tongue features a stylized version of ski-goggled version of Nitty.
