Building on the recently announced general release of the Shox Z Calistra ballet sneaker, Nike details the all-black colorway featuring polished black uppers, subtle red accents on the heel and outsole, and modern Shox Z cushioning. It launches alongside the Pale Ivory version on Naked's website on May 7 for $159.
As covered in prior reporting on the Shox Z Calistra's path from Naked and Labelhood collaborations to inline rollout, the all-black general-release pairs channel a sleek black-swan aesthetic. The design blends early 2000s ballet-inspired elements—like Mary Jane straps—with updated techy uppers and Shox Z columns in the heel for futuristic cushioning. Red hints on the heel and outsole add subtle contrast, distinguishing it from fully monochromatic looks while nodding to collab energy. Priced at $159, this colorway drops May 7 on Naked's site, broadening access to the model.
