The Nike Air Foamposite Pro “Pearl” is making a triumphant return during the Holiday 2025 season. A cult classic in Nike’s Foamposite lineage, this sneaker holds a special place in sneaker and pop culture history.

What sets the Foamposite Pro “Pearl” apart is not just its innovative design but its rich legacy. Originally released in 1997, this silhouette took the sneaker world by storm with its futuristic design and unparalleled performance on the court. However, its cultural status skyrocketed when Ray Allen famously wore the shoe in Spike Lee’s iconic 1998 film, He Got Game. Playing the character of Jesus Shuttlesworth, Allen’s effortless style and undeniable skill brought the “Pearl” to the forefront, cementing its place in sneaker history.

The 2024 iteration stays true to its roots, featuring a pearlized Foamposite upper paired with sleek black accents and a glossy black Swoosh. The icy translucent outsole adds a touch of modern flair, while details like the red pull tab stitching hint at its rich basketball heritage. The durable construction and futuristic aesthetic remain a testament to the innovative spirit of Nike during the late ’90s.
