SNKRS US has Corteiz’s Shox R419 in Metallic Silver and University Red for Friday, November 20, at $190. Nike GB and Nike Spain listed the Game Royal pair for November 1; neither lists the Metallic Silver yet.
From R4 to R419
Nike’s SNKRS pages say the Shox R4 debuted in 2000. Clint Ogbenna, who founded the London streetwear brand Corteiz, reshaped it, per Nike’s listing.
He added a frame around the toe for his C-Star logo. CRTZ Shox logos sit on the tongue, the heel and the outsole. Nike says the TPU overlay takes its lines from the original’s debossed contours.
How to get a pair
It’s first come, first served on SNKRS and Nike.com in the US, in men’s sizes. Nike’s European stock feed shows 22 sizes of the silver pair, but no UK or Spain date. The Game Royal pair was £174.99 on Nike GB. More from the brand on our Nike page.
