Wale Wears The Nike GT Future “Copper Egg”

Updated February 16th, 2025: A new “Copper Egg” colorway of the Nike GT Future is revealed. Wale was once again spotted in this buzzing new basketball shoe during his performance at Nike’s officially Galaxy Foamosite party.

That sneaker Wale was spotted wearing? It’s the Nike GT Future, the latest model from Nike Basketball’s collective of performance-centric models that have been widely praised by all types of hoopers in the game.

Since its debut in early 2021, the Greater Than Series has delivered high-level models engineered specifically to the modern hooper intertwined with imprint decades for inspiration. Divided into three pillars of Cut, Jump, and Run (now Hustle), Nike is now introducing a fourth leg called the Nike GT Future.

After Wale was spotted wearing an orange pair, Nike NIL athlete AJ Dybantsa debuted the silhouette at Nike’s Future Game experience in Oakland. The shoe is confirmed to launch later this year.

Aesthetically, comparisons have been made to the Nike Zoom Hyperflight, the iconic Eric Avar-designed model that debuted back in 2001. It was most commonly associated with Nike’s speedy guards such as Jason “White Chocolate” Williams and Penny Hardaway. Exceptionally designed and truly unlike anything out on the market at the time, the Hyperflight legend continued in 2013 when it re-released for the first time. The tongue features perforations that also remind us of the Nike Zoom 2K3, a shoe closely related to the Hyperflight.
