With the WNBA season officially underway, there are few footwear storylines as captivating as the debut of Caitlin Clark’s first signature sneaker. And while fans will have to wait a bit longer for the arrival of her shoe, there’s another Clark-branded pair on the way that’s worthy of a closer look.
This time, it’s Clark’s go-to Nike Kobe 5 Protro model that yet again receives a specialized colorway tied to the Indiana Fever star. The Coconut Milk/Bright Spruce/Midnight Spruce/University Red/White colorway features a creamy Coconut Milk mesh and synthetic base that’s accented with dark spruce green across the upper, liner and outsole. Small hits of bright red are seen on the tongue and outsole, but the upcoming pair is otherwise devoid of accent colors.
