Nike is celebrating Halloween and the superstar status of A’ja Wilson with a festive new release: the A’One “Candy Corn Queen.” This special edition of Wilson’s debut signature shoe is a playful and vibrant tribute to the holiday, designed to merge the fun of “Spooky Season” with elite, unapologetic performance on the court.

The sneaker’s design is a striking study in color, directly inspired by the classic seasonal treat. The upper features a crisp white base that seamlessly transitions into a bright gradient, fading from a vibrant Chrome Yellow at the toes to a bold Safety Orange at the heels. This eye-catching aesthetic is further highlighted by glossy, candy-like accents on the Nike Swoosh and Wilson’s signature branding. The design is all treat, no tricks, reflecting the product description which dubs her the “Halloween Queen.”

Beyond the playful aesthetic, the A’One is built for getting buckets. It’s engineered to be unapologetically light, featuring plush Cushlon 3.0 foam underfoot for optimal energy return and quickness. The shoe also includes a generative micro-tuned traction pattern and a stability band for the lockdown support Wilson needs to be a dominant two-way player. The Nike A’One “Candy Corn Queen” is set to be released on October 22 ahead of Halloween.
