Nike Shox R4 "Cave Purple"

TLDR: The Nike Shox R4 ‘Cave Purple’ combines Y2K aesthetics with futuristic vibes: black upper, purple side panels, shiny chrome details and, of course, the visible Shox elements. It will be released in summer 2025 for €150.

Futuristic bounce and Y2K vibes are back – in the form of the new Nike Shox R4 ‘Cave Purple’. As one of the most iconic silhouettes of the early 2000s, the Shox R4 remains an integral part of Nike's retro running line in 2025 and celebrates its comeback in a striking yet elegant colourway.

The ‘Cave Purple/Off Noir/Black/Metallic Silver’ colourway combines rich purple sidewalls with a deep black upper made of Off Noir materials that extends over the toe box, collar and signature Shox springs. Chrome accents on the tongue and heel add a subtle flash, perfectly rounding off the futuristic design.

Despite its eye-catching look, the ‘Cave Purple’ remains comfortable to wear. Thanks to the visible Shox technology in the heel, the shoe not only offers retro charm, but also genuine comfort and cushioning.

It will be released in summer 2025 at a price of 150 € and will be available both online at Nike.com and from selected retailers. An exact release date has not yet been announced, but the drop is expected in the coming weeks.

You will soon be able to find the Shox R4 ‘Cave Purple’ at Nike.com and in stores with a Nike account, presumably also at major retailers such as Foot Locker or Snipes.
