The Nike Caitlin 1 Snacks Down A “Cotton Candy” Colorway
What to know
ClosetKept AI- Nike Caitlin 1 signature model debuting October 1st with multiple colorway releases planned.
- Cotton candy-inspired colorway features Racer Blue base with Melon Tint accents on lateral/medial 'C' and '2' detailing.
- Alternating black and Racer Blue Swooshes; Melon Tint appears on outsole.
- Priced at $140 USD or regional equivalent; Fall/Winter 2026 release targeting Asia Pacific region.
We’ve counted over a dozen “leaked” colorways of the first signature Caitlin Clark shoes since Nike opened the floodgates with a first look earlier this summer, all but confirming a massive marketing push ahead of what might just be the brand’s most sought-after new signature model in years. Even in the homestretch before the model’s October 1st debut, new looks keep trickling out.
The latest is a cotton candy-esque spin on the Nike Caitlin 1 “Racer Blue” dropping next week. A light pink shade dubbed Melon Tint accents the “C” and “2” detailing on the lateral and medial sides, respectively, a choice that effectively draws out the skeletal shaping hidden in the larger ensemble. The Swooshes alternate between black and Racer Blue, while Melon Tint returns on the outsole.
The colorway is an interesting choice given the close “Racer Blue” resemblance, but the Beaverton brand has shown a willingness to revisit colorways before. Do note that the SKU shown below is associated with the Asia Pacific region, so the sneaker might end up exclusive to that market.
In any case, the Nike Caitlin 1 “Racer Blue/Melon Tint” is expected to release Fall/Winter 2026 for $140, or the regional equivalent, in adult unisex sizes. See official images below if you’re set on copping.
