The Nike Air Max Goadome Low "Black Croc" Releases October 2026

Nike is bringing back the Air Max Goadome Low this fall with the "Black Croc" colorway, a head-to-toe black build that puts its heavily textured leather upper front and center. The release follows the Taller De Rafa collaboration on the same silhouette and continues a stretch of attention on the low-cut version of the long-running ACG model.

Crocodile embossing runs across nearly the entire upper, from the toe box through the side panels and around the heel. Rather than repeating the same scale throughout, the pattern shifts between larger and tighter textures depending on the section, giving the shoe a layered look despite the single-color palette. Black laces, stitching, and lining tie everything together, and small Swooshes near the heel are integrated into the design without introducing a contrasting color. Perforations along the sides and collar break up the embossed surface between sections.

The sole keeps the rugged character the Goadome is known for. A black midsole carries visible Air cushioning at both the heel and forefoot, with ACG branding molded along its side wall. A thick black rubber outsole with deep lugs sits underneath, staying true to the model's outdoor foundation. A "Navy Croc" version using the same textured treatment in a dark navy finish is also on the way.
