As Iowa women's basketball preps for the 2026-27 season, they will do so stylishly after Caitlin Clark gifted the team pairs of Nike "Caitlin 1" shoes.

Caitlin Clark, a three-time WNBA All-Star, has gifted the Iowa women's basketball team a pair of her newly-released signature Nike shoes, the Caitlin 1s. This generous gesture comes at a perfect time as the team prepares for the 2026-27 season. Following the gift, Clark, Nike, and Dick's Sporting Goods have set up a pop-up shop near the Pentacrest to celebrate the release of her Caitlin 1s and her Nike signature collection.

The Iowa women's basketball team will also participate in the Nike Basketball Nothing Special to See Here* Iowa Takeover on the Nike Basketball Court, where they will break in the new shoes in front of passionate Hawkeye fans. The event will include a hot-shot shooting challenge, knockout, a 3-point contest, and a half-court shooting contest.
