Nike put the WNBA’s 30th anniversary on two of its most familiar court shoes, turning the Air Force 1 ’07 and the Dunk Low into collector bait with just enough anniversary flash to feel special. The Air Force 1 arrived in Sail, Action Red, Light Photo Blue and Multi-Color, while the Dunk Low came dressed in Action Red with a WNBA 30-Year Anniversary patch at the heel and an iridescent, multi-color Swoosh.

That pairing makes sense. The Air Force 1 and Dunk Low are Nike’s cleanest bridges between hardwood history and streetwear rotation, the kind of silhouettes that can carry a logo story without turning into costume. Here, the WNBA treatment stays sharp rather than loud: the Air Force 1 leans into a brighter, mixed palette, while the Dunk Low keeps its punch to a red body and the glint of that Swoosh hit. It is anniversary dressing with wearability built in.

Nike.com listed the Air Force 1 ’07 WNBA 30th Women’s Shoes at $125 and the Dunk Low WNBA 30th Women’s Shoes at $130. Both pairs were scheduled to release on April 24, 2026, giving fans a clean buy-in point for a drop that sat inside Nike’s wider WNBA anniversary hub rather than standing alone as a one-off colorway.

The broader celebration began on April 7, 2026, when the WNBA launched its 30th season campaign around films, Court Origins Nights, a Legacy Trail merchandise program and Top 30 Plays. The league also set Friday, May 8, 2026 as the 2026 season tip-off, folding the sneaker release into a bigger run-up that treated the anniversary as a season-long statement, not a single marketing beat.

Nike’s anniversary assortment stretched beyond the classic retros, too. The brand’s hub also included A’Two “WNBA 30th” by A’ja Wilson, Sabrina 3 “WNBA 30th” and Book 2 “WNBA 30th,” a spread that made the message clear: the league’s influence now reaches from signature performance models to the most collectible corners of sneaker culture.
