Nike Basketball’s GT Future continues to build momentum heading into 2026, and its latest reveal taps directly into one of the brand’s most iconic themes. Unveiled by longtime Nike designer Frank Cooke, the upcoming Nike GT Future “Galaxy” introduces a bold, space-inspired finish that immediately connects to the legacy of Foamposite-era storytelling while pushing the silhouette forward.
First introduced during last year’s All-Star Weekend and later co-signed by Wale, the GT Future has steadily gained traction as a modern performance model with clear design callbacks. Its molded upper and futuristic shape borrow cues from classics like the Foamposite One and Hyperflight, giving it a familiar yet evolved identity within Nike Basketball’s lineup.
This “Galaxy” edition builds on that foundation with a darker blue base, layered with scattered star detailing across the upper. However, instead of recreating a static space print, the design leans into motion. A burst of color radiates from the midfoot and wraps around the heel, creating the effect of a universe forming in real time. Subtle black Swooshes blend into the upper, allowing the graphic to take center stage.
As expected, the theme is completed with a glow-in-the-dark outsole, reinforcing its connection to past “Galaxy” releases while adding a modern edge. The execution feels less like a retro callback and more like a reimagining of the concept for a new generation.
The Nike GT Future “Galaxy” is currently scheduled to release in Summer 2026 for $220 USD. An exact launch date has not yet been confirmed.
