Nike’s Basketball program has been on a tear lately. Caitlin Clark’s first signature model is finally ready for prime time, Ja and Giannis are getting ready to drop their 4th and 8th signature shoes, respectively, and we’ve still got a Cade Cunningham signature silhouette somewhere on the horizon. As we wait for the Detroit star to put his name on a shoe, The Swoosh has made Cade the face of a new in-line silhouette, the ST Charge.
Gritty in Black
The Nike ST Charge EP Grit is the latest colorway of the armored hoops shoe to surface online, with new images showing full detail of the black pair with white paint splatter details. Unlike the recent Cade PE pairs, though, the new EP Grit colorway will join a few debut colorways as an overseas exclusive, with no plans for a stateside release.
Featuring a black base on the tough, TPU-layered midsole and lower upper, with more black on the chain link-style mesh above it, the tongue, and the laces. On the arrow-covered armored section, an all-over print white paint splatter adds some depth to the colorway, while a red logo on the tongue and icy blue accents on the outsole add even more subtle but colorful energy.
Nike ST Charge EP Grit Release Details
