Nike ST Flare Joker HF0232-500

The Nike ST Flare has already debuted overseas, but will it ever come stateside? While street ballers would surely welcome another outdoor-focused sneaker option, the model remains an Asia-exclusive… at least for now.

Following a not-so-subtle Air Yeezy–esque duo, we’ve uncovered a new colorway reminiscent of The Joker from the animated Batman series. The upper takes on a palette of “Dark Iris Purple/Iron Purple/Photon Dust/Black,” punctuated by a hot pink sock liner, cyan blue tongue piping, and light brown on the rear portion of the outsole.

The Nike ST Flare “Joker” drops in China for a price that translates to about $125. If you’re an interested buyer located stateside, your best recourse is the aftermarket. See official images below and hit our Sneaker Release Dates page to browse more upcoming basketball shoes.
