Nike Shox R4 "Brazil" Brings Shox Energy to the Seleção

Nike’s focus is firmly planted on Brazil heading into this summer’s World Cup. Between Jumpman-branded second kits, a matching Air Jordan 3 retro, and a broader push across football culture, the Swoosh is leaning all the way into O Canarinho. Now, it taps a silhouette born during the heyday of Brasil futebol: the Nike Shox R4 "Brazil."

The Nike Shox R4 "Brazil" pairs early-2000s performance tech with unmistakable federation cues. A black and metallic silver upper sets the base, while vivid blue Shox columns energize the heel. A yellow Swoosh slices across the sidewall, nodding to the nation’s signature palette without overloading the design.

The clearest signal comes on the tongue. Official CBF cresting sits front and center, complete with stars above and “Brasil” text beneath, confirming this is more than a loosely inspired colorway. It’s an earnest tie-in with the Confederação Brasileira de Futebol — a detail that elevates the release beyond simple association.

While the Shox line has recently found traction through women’s-focused marketing and fashion crossovers, this drop steers the model back toward sport heritage. The sculpted sidewalls and piston-like heel cushioning still feel futuristic, but the storytelling is rooted in football culture at its peak.

With a retail price set at $160, release details for the Nike Shox R4 "Brazil" are still under wraps. Given Nike’s broader Brazil push this season, expect the Nike Shox R4 "Brazil" to arrive right as global attention shifts to the pitch.
