In an era characterized by the relentless proliferation of leaks, Nike has strategically introduced the SNKRS Showcase series in October last year, a proactive measure to unveil footwear plans ahead of unauthorized disclosures.

Building upon the success of the inaugural showcase, a second installment arrived in June, spotlighting another wave of captivating releases, including the return of the Nike Gato. Originally introduced in 2010 as a futsal-inspired shoe, the Gato was revisited by the Nike SB team and featured in a notable collaboration with Supreme in 2018.

About the Nike Gato “White Gum”

Now, the Gato is making its triumphant comeback, sans the SB label, reflecting the enduring appeal of soccer-inspired silhouettes. Four colorways—white, gray, maroon, and green—were initially teased in June, and we are now privileged to present an official glimpse of the “White Gum” pair.

This iteration boasts a pristine white textile base complemented by white leather overlays and a gray suede overlay at the toe. The Cushlon-backed sole unit features a white midsole paired with a gum outsole.

Release Details

The Swoosh has indicated that the Nike Gato will return during the upcoming holiday season, available through Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of US$110.
