It's officially Goadome season, and Nike's going all in on its coolest ACG boot (and rightfully so). Next up, the model gets its most exotic makeover yet.
The newest Air Max Goadome Low arrives with black crocodile-textured leather uppers, creating a wild albeit extremely chic sneaker-boot.
It keeps all its signature details, like the Air-cushioned soles and ACG badges. But this pair's got more bite than the others.
Nike's Air Max Goadome first dropped in early 2026 as a low-top version of the classic ACG boot. As a short king, it admittedly looks more like a rugged dad sneaker than a boot. Still stylish, though.
It debuted in a few classic colorways, then Nike started having fun with it. It has since released polka-dot versions and a greasy collaboration with Taller de Rafa (complimentary).
Now we're getting blessed with these nice croc-skin versions, which feel like the classic Mauri Gators gone Swoosh.
Retailing for $175, the black croc Air Max Goadome shoes will release on October 15 on Nike's SNKRS app . There's also a "Midnight Navy" pair , dropping on October 2, and a pink croc-skin option whose release remains unknown.
Regardless, what a time to be a Goadome fan.

By the way, Morgan interviewed the bad gal, too.
