Nike’s Air Foamposite Pro Pearl Officially Returns In 2025

Nike is bringing back the iconic Air Foamposite Pro Pearl in 2025, nearly a decade after its last release.

The Foamposite keeps coming back, again and again. But this time, Nike’s not just riding the nostalgia wave. At the brand’s SNKRS Showcase event (yes, the one that previews basketball heat all the way through early 2026), the Swoosh finally gave fans what they’ve been asking for: the return of the legendary Air Foamposite Pro Pearl, a legendary sneaker grail.

Originally dropped in 1997, the Pearl Foamposite isn’t just another shoe. From its on-court presence to its star turn in Spike Lee’s He Got Game (worn by Ray Allen as Jesus Shuttlesworth), this sneaker became a classic when it was released. The Pearl White, Black, and True Red combo looked clean back then. And still does today. Of course, the creamy Foamposite shell, black nubuck eyestays, carbon fiber plate, and mesh tongue are timeless.

But if you’ve followed this shoe’s legacy, you’ll know it’s had its fair share of releases over the years. It retroed in 2002, 2009, 2010, and again in 2015 as part of the “Class of ‘97” pack—paired with the Hawk Flight model. And every time, fans had one question: Does the pearl still pearl? Over time, that signature pearlescent finish has shifted tones, sometimes leaning too silver or too creamy. This time, though the early previews of the 2025 release look more faithful to the OG than anything since the ‘90s.

Sneakerheads are already hyped. On Reddit, the reactions were loud and clear:
“The best foams,” wrote one fan.
“This colorway and the Dr. Doom’s is all I want when it comes to Foams,” added another.
And then there’s the inevitable: “Ok, I’ll bite!”

Whether you’re a ‘90s baby who remembers seeing Jesus Shuttlesworth hit the court in these or a new-gen collector finally getting a crack at the classics, the 2025 re-release is the one to watch. You’ve waited 10 years—don’t miss it.

Now, the question everyone wants to know the answer to: When can you cop? Nike’s Air Foamposite Pro Pearl is set to drop on November 8, 2025, for $230. The style code is HF0794-200, so jot that down. Expect it to land on Nike’s SNKRS app and at select Nike Sportswear retailers. And yes, it’ll probably sell out.
