Design features include pizza graphics

The shoe upper uses College Grey shaggy suede with Pink Glaze accents. A rat tail extension appears on the heel to mimic a rodent's tail. The insoles form a full slice of pizza when placed side by side.

Hardware nods to transit systems

A yellow MetroCard-inspired hangtag is attached to the shoe. Embroidered lettering on the tongue displays NYC intersected by a small Swoosh logo. The translucent rubber outsole frames soft pink midsole branding.

Retail price and availability details

The retail price for this model is set at 150 US dollars. Customers can purchase the item directly through the Nike website starting in October 2026.
