- The colorway, dubbed "Yellow Zest," carries style code IH7423-700.

Caitlin Clark has revealed another colorway of her first signature shoe, debuting a yellow-and-blue Nike Caitlin 1 at a Fever appearance this week. The makeup leans directly into Indiana Fever branding — a bold yellow upper with blue across the Swoosh and outsole and green-gold accents — under style code IH7423-700, SneakerNews reported. It is expected to arrive during Holiday 2026 at $140, dubbed "Yellow Zest," per Sole Retriever.
The Caitlin 1 does not release until October 1, but Nike is already seeding colorways to build anticipation, the "Yellow Zest" following the "Racer Blue" debut pair on the same Opticast upper.
The read: this is what a franchise launch looks like when the athlete moves product. Clark's eight-year, $28 million Nike deal — the richest sneaker contract in women's basketball — is being activated as a full color-by-color rollout rather than a single hero release, and a team-colored PE like the Fever "Yellow Zest" is the tell that Nike expects retail demand tied to her market, not just to the shoe. In a record signature-shoe field of 33 athletes, Clark is being treated like a tentpole, and the drip of colorways before launch is the strategy.
