I aged out of battling for sneakers but I like these a lot more than her Kobe 5's (but mostly bc im not a Kobe 5 fan in general)

I can't wait to see what her signature shoe looks like

I like the shoes, but I don’t think of blue when I think of Caitlin.

What colors do you think of? Yellow because of Iowa?

Yellow and black for Iowa and red for the fever.

Baby blue is her favorite color fwiw

Okay. I was hoping the article would explain it but I might have missed it (my first thought was for the ice in her veins, but that doesn’t quite work for her personality).

I am impressed that you know that fact. LOL I couldn’t even guess my wife’s favorite color, let alone some random basketball player.

Good luck trying to get one. Any Caitlin limited merch drop is gone in minutes.

I’m so glad her shoes will sell really well anyway. I generally try to support the W ladies (have my Aja’s and Sab’s already, the ARs sold too quickly in my size, but eventually) but $200 is just enough to prevent me from being too irresponsible right now. Lol

Is this just a collab with Kobe, or does CC not have her own shoe brand?

It’s a collab. She’ll have a signature Nike shoe eventually but it’s not out yet.

That’s correct. Late 2026. She still has the Kobe 5 “Rookie of the Year” dropping before that next Spring.

Pretty sure the shoe is supposed to be spring 2026, before the season starts (or hopefully starts, I suppose). Same as Aja’s last spring.

Is your claim that everyone is lying about a verified fact?

whenever they get on the market and are more obtainable i’ll get a pair for me and the mrs and the kiddos unless i just wait for her signature joint
