There’s no stopping the Y2K revival trend. Even as we start in on the second half of the aughts for fashion’s classic 20-year cycle, the styles of the late 90s and early 2000s are still dominating the sneaker space, especially in the women’s footwear industry. After bringing back the kitten heel-style Shox Z last year, Nike is adding even more turn-of-the-century energy to the silhouette, teaming up with Copenhagen retailer Naked for a Mary Jane retool of the lifestyle runner.

Naked CPH kicked off the year with a clean Salomon collab, and this custom retooling of the Shox Z is a perfect follow-up. The women’s exclusive colorway continues the industry trend of blending formal and sporty footwear for an office-ready Shox that doesn’t sacrifice comfort.
The Naked Copenhagen x Nike Shox Z Calistra will be released Spring 2026 through Naked CPH, Nike, and select retailers in-store and online. Available in women’s sizing, the retail price is set at $135. For all the latest Nike collab news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
