The Caitlin Clark sneaker train has left the station, and we’re not expecting it to slow down for years to come. As Clark and the Indiana Fever get set for their tough first-round playoff match-up against the Las Vegas Aces, Nike is prepping for their own postseason push, debuting the Nike Caitlin 1 alongside a major ad campaign and matching clothing line.
After the first push of Caitlin colorways, a second wave will bring even more color to the Opticast upper, including a new Racer Blue Pink pair with a two-tone construction that adds splashes of pale pink to the “C” and “2” shaped texture. The colorway brings the clearest mix of colors to the upper yet, showing just how interesting the color combos can be on future pairs of the Caitlin 1.

Starting with a Racer Blue base, the Opticast upper paneling layered on top switches to a pale pink shade that pops as the raised Cs and 2s get closer together on the side panel ribs. The tongue and outsole add more vibrant blue, with a metallic green double C logo on the tongue tag and two shades of blue and metallic silver on the Swooshes.
The Nike Caitlin 1 Racer Blue Pink will be released Holiday 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online, possibly as an exclusive colorway for China. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $140. To keep up with all the latest Nike Caitlin 1 news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
