In this story:

On Thursday morning, Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark's first signature Nike basketball shoe finally hit shelves. It did not take long for the Nike Caitlin 1 "Caitlin Blue" and "Warning Code" colorways to sell out in almost every size online.

Now, athletes and fans can either try their luck on the sneaker resale market or wait for future releases. Below is a breakdown of every option to help shoppers choose the best path.

The Nike Caitlin 1 "Caitlin Blue" colorway was released on October 1, 2026. It had a retail price of $140 in adult sizes. Fans can find the shoes on sneaker resale websites StockX and GOAT. Currently, the average resale price is $188, with most asking prices below that on StockX.

The "Caitlin Blue" colorway reflects the sky's depth and the infinite possibilities it represents. It also nods to Clark's unlimited range on the court. The blue evokes the inspiration and imagination Clark wants players and fans to feel when they lace up her shoe.

The Nike Caitlin 1 "Warning Code" colorway dropped on October 1, 2026. It retailed for $140 in adult sizes. Shoppers can still buy the kicks on StockX and GOAT. Currently, the average resale price is $191 on StockX. Unlike the "Caitlin Blue" colorway, the asking prices aren't much lower.

The "Warning Code" flips the original scheme and offers a new perspective. Yellow shades evoke a natural warning, just like the passion and intensity Clark shows on the court.
