WNBA sneakers, who wears what on court and which players' shoes sell on resale

Source: Colendri, WNBA 2026, on-court minutes tracked through October 4, 2026.

Add Jordan, which Nike owns, and Nike's brands are on the floor about 74% of the time. In 2022 it was about 78% (69.5% Nike plus 8.4% Jordan), according to KixStats figures reported by Boardroom. The newer brands have chipped away a little. Skechers, New Balance and Curry each now have about 1% to 2%.

The models tell a clear story too. The Nike Kobe 6 is on court for 10.5% of minutes and the Kobe 5 for 7.3%, ahead of the Ja 3 (6.6%), adidas Crazy Energy+ (5.0%), A'ja Wilson's A'Two (4.8%) and Sabrina Ionescu's Sabrina 3 (4.1%). Caitlin Clark's own Kobe 6 colorway was worn by 11 different players this season.

Sabrina sells the most pairs, Caitlin sells the priciest

Fans buy a different mix than players wear. We counted every completed GOAT and StockX sale over the past 12 months of shoes tied by name to a WNBA player.

Sabrina Ionescu's line led with 30,699 sales across 193 listings, at a median of $123. The best seller was the Sabrina 3 'Blueprint' (2,743 StockX sales at a median $135). That is more resale sales than Kevin Durant's KD 17 and 18 (26,612) or Devin Booker's Book 1 and 2 (26,307) over the same 12 months. The NBA still has the biggest line by far, though: Ja Morant's Ja 1 to 3 sold 161,324 pairs.

Sabrina Ionescu's shoes outsold Kevin Durant's and Devin Booker's on resale this past year.

Caitlin Clark's numbers come from just a few shoes. Her four Kobe Protro player editions, plus the first few pairs of her new Caitlin 1, sold 24,021 pairs on just eight listings, at a median of $320. On StockX, where we know retail, 11,610 of 11,612 sales were above the retail price. The typical sale was 67% over retail.

GOAT and StockX completed sales, October 5, 2025 to October 4, 2026. Retail as listed on StockX.

Most signature pairs sell near retail

Outside the Clark Kobes, WNBA shoes are not a premium market. A'ja Wilson's A'One and A'Two sold 12,140 pairs at a median of $110, and about half of the StockX sales (4,451 of 8,843) were above retail. Only about 4 in 10 Sabrina sales on StockX (9,020 of 21,556) beat retail, and the typical one was 7% under.

That is good news if you want to wear them. You can buy most Sabrina and A'One colorways on resale for about what Nike charges, sometimes less.

Smaller lines are a mixed bag:

• Jewell Loyd's GT Cut 3 player editions: 1,313 sales, median $210, about two-thirds above retail.
• Angel Reese's Reebok Angel Reese 1: 689 sales, median $133, 78% of StockX sales above retail.
• Paige Bueckers' GT Hustle 3 player edition: 560 sales, median $144; 72% of StockX sales were under retail.
• Breanna Stewart's Puma Stewie line: 177 sales across 27 listings, median $88.

League-branded pairs, like the Kobe 3 Low 'WNBA All-Star' and the Jordan 3 'Desert Camo', added 1,549 more sales at a median $113.

What about Caitlin Clark's own shoe?

The Nike Caitlin 1, her first signature model, launched on October 1 at $140. Four days in, we have recorded only about 10 resale sales, which is too few to say anything. Her Fever went out in the first round, so the shoe will not be on the playoff stage. We will come back to it once it has a few weeks of sales.

What it means if you are buying

The WNBA has two very different resale markets. Caitlin Clark's Kobes trade like hyped Kobes, well above retail: the middle half of sales were between $285 and $361. Almost everything else, including Sabrina's and A'ja's lines, the two that are still in the playoffs, sells close to retail. That is a pattern in past sales, not a prediction of what playoff runs will do. Our look at whether big NBA games sell sneakers found that scoring and winning barely moved a player's shoe sales.

Methodology: completed GOAT and StockX sales recorded by SneakerPulse, whole UTC days October 5, 2025 to October 4, 2026, sales between $20 and $30,000, footwear only, no cleats. A player's line means listings whose name carries the player's name or shoe: "Sabrina" (Nike), "Caitlin" (Nike; four Kobe 5 and Kobe 6 Protro player editions, plus 10 sales of the Caitlin 1), "A'One"/"A'Two"/"A'ja Wilson" (Nike), "Jewell Loyd", "Angel Reese" (Reebok), "Bueckers", "Stewie" plus a model number (Puma), and "WNBA" for league editions, which leave out shoes already counted under a player. Napheesa Collier (45 sales) and Arike Ogunbowale (74) are left off the chart. NBA lines for scale: "Ja 1/2/3", "Book 1/2", "KD 17/18", "LeBron 22/23/XX" (Nike). Kids' and women's sizes are included. A shoe on both marketplaces counts on each. Medians are of all sales in a line, so a line with pricier colorways has a higher median. Retail comparisons use StockX listings with a StockX-listed retail price. StockX sells new pairs only; GOAT also sells used pairs. StockX has a source gap from May 22 to July 3, 2026, which lowers StockX counts for every line over those weeks.
