For NYC Sneaker Fans: Corteiz x Nike Shox R419 in Metallic Silver, First Look

Corteiz, the London streetwear label founded in 2017 by Clint Ogbenna (Clint 419), has shared a first look at its next Nike collaboration, the Shox R419. The pair Clint showed on his own Instagram is the Nike Shox R4 in Metallic Silver, photographed beside a silver Mercedes.

The name adds Clint's well-known number to the R4, and reports say the 419 is stamped straight into the sole mould. The four-column Shox heel stays, while the side panels pick up Corteiz details. According to Sole Retriever, the silver pair adds black to the laces, sockliner and top of the tongue, where a red C and a CRTZ SHOX logo carry the co-branding. The Game Royal pair is listed under style code IQ9951-400.

Three colorways are reported: Black, Metallic Silver and Game Royal, all in unisex sizing. Only the silver pair has come from Clint himself; the other two appear in campaign footage and press coverage.

An apparel line is due alongside the shoes. Sneakerjagers counts nine pieces: short- and long-sleeve football shirts, nylon tracksuits and shorts in black, royal blue, silver and red, with a utility vest with zip pockets as the centerpiece. Other outlets also mention track jackets and pants, an AeroLoft vest and pro base layers.

Timing varies by outlet. Sole Retriever says Holiday 2026, while Sneakerjagers points to late October and early November via the Corteiz webstore and Nike SNKRS, with 31 October mentioned for the UK. A European date and price have not been confirmed, according to Sneakerjagers.

The Shox is a new platform for the partnership. Nike sued Corteiz in 2021 over the similarity between its name and the Cortez, then the two released their first official collaboration in 2023 on the Air Max 95. More Air Max 95 colorways and an Air Trainer Huarache pack followed. Sneakerjagers notes the R4 was already a London staple in the early 2000s, and Sneaker Freaker points to Clint's love of football, especially the Brazilian national team.
