Where to Buy the Nike Caitlin 1

There's a major battle going down in the WNBA postseason between Caitlin Clark's Indiana Fever and A'ja Wilson's Las Vegas Aces, but there's something that links the two on the court: a Nike signature model. A'ja is currently on her second signature sneaker, the Nike A'Two, but Clark is on the verge of releasing her debut shoe with The Swoosh, the Nike Caitlin 1. It's one of the most anticipated signature debuts this decade, and Nike knows it, with plans to release two different colorways on launch day.

The Nike Caitlin 1 in the Caitlin Blue and Warning Code colorways will be released October 1, 2026. The adult pairs will retail for $140, while the GS and PS retail for $115 and $105, respectively. Here is everything you need to know to buy the Nike Caitlin 1 Caitlin Blue and Warning Code on release day.

Where to Purchase the Nike Caitlin 1 Caitlin Blue and Warning Code

The Nike Caitlin 1 in the Caitlin Blue and Warning Code colorways will be released on October 1, 2026. Retail is set at $140 in adult sizes. Since these are the first two colorways of Clark's debut signature sneaker, demand is expected to be high. While plenty of retailers will carry the sneaker, including Foot Locker, JD Sports, DICK'S Sporting Goods, and more, it's highly likely they will sell out on release morning.

Nike will be your best bet, as they will offer the most stock. Both colorways are releasing on the SNKRS App at 10:00 AM EDT (7:00 AM PDT) on October 1. Make sure your SNKRS App is updated, and you have your current shipping and billing information on your account. The release will be done via a LEO (let everyone order), so entering as quickly as possible will be necessary. You will have around 2-3 minutes to enter the drop, and shortly after this passes, Nike will notify if you have secured the pair or if you took an L.

Some retailers are hosting raffles, including Foot Locker, Feature, Champs Sports, and DICK'S Sporting Goods. To increase your odds, have friends and family also enter raffles through these retailers. Most retailers, including some that have raffles, will be hosting first-come-first-served drops on release morning. If you have the Sole Retriever mobile app, we'll send direct notifications when retailers release pairs on October 1.
