Name: Nike NOCTA Glide “Black”
Colorway: Black/Black/Iron Grey/University Gold
SKU: DM0879-002
MSRP: $160 USD
Release Date: Summer 2025
Where to Buy: Nike

Drake and Nike are turning back time to revisit their NOCTA Glide sneaker from 2023. The shoe appeared in a wide variety of colorways via early in-hand imagery, however, it only ended up releasing in three looks, alongside distribution of an EYBL-themed pair.

While the collaborative line’s footwear focus has since shifted to the Hot Step 2 and Air Force 1 Low “Love You Forever” series, the Swoosh has just offered a first look at a new “Black” rendition of the NOCTA Glide. Returning with its Zoom Flight 95-inspired tooling, the shoe combines black with “Iron Grey” while offering a hint of “University Gold” at the outsole and silver at the heel of the sockliner. Tonal NOCTA branding appears at one of the heel’s midsole bubbles, the tongue and the sockliner.

At the time of writing, neither Drake nor the Nike NOCTA team have indicated when this “Black” version of the NOCTA Glide will be dropping. Stay tuned for updates as we currently expect it to arrive on shelves later this year via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $160 USD.
