Although Victor Wembanyama’s sophomore season ended abruptly due to a blood clot discovered in his shoulder, Nike is still looking to drop products with the out-of-this-world NBA athlete. We’re still awaiting images of his Dusty Cactus colorway on the GT Hustle 3, a sneaker he consistently rocked throughout the 2024-2025 NBA season. Still, pictures of another Wemby GT Hustle 3 have appeared.
Unlike the pair that dropped as part of the Black Label Collection for NBA All-Star 2025, this Nike GT Hustle 3 for Wemby features an alien color palette of barely volt mixed with black and purple hues. The knitted upper showcases a Barely Volt hue on the top half, gradually fading into black toward the sole unit. Swoosh branding on the midfoot and GT Hustle 3 text on the tongue come in purple agate, contrasting the black and volt green hues surrounding it.
No direct references to Wemby are found on the front of the sneaker, but his alien logo, which has been seen on other sneakers for the French superstar, like the GT Hustle 2, makes an appearance on the heel tab. The galactic-like midsole finishes the sneaker, which features a gradient purple and black finish alongside volt speckle paint details. It comes cushioned with Air Zoom units in the forefoot.
The Victor Wembanyama x Nike GT Hustle 3 Barley Volt Purple Agate will release in Summer 2025 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is $190. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
