The Nike Vapor X Posite "Eggplant" Releases Summer 2026
Updated about 4 hours ago
Quick Summary
Nike is extending the Foamposite color library into its court lineup, bringing the recognizable "Eggplant" treatment to the Vapor X Posite for 2026. The colorway follows the "Copper" and "Metallic Orange" editions already tied to the model and continues a pattern of translating classic Foamposite palettes into the tennis-ready silhouette.
The Vapor X Posite carries the same molded shell construction that made the original Foamposite famous, but it trades the basketball-specific setup for a lower, court-oriented profile. On this "Eggplant" version, royal purple blankets the majority of the molded upper, delivering the same bold tone that defined the classic Air Foamposite One colorway fans have known since the Penny Hardaway era. Black details break up the shell at key points across the upper, and a translucent plate finishes the bottom of the shoe.
The Nike Vapor X Posite "Eggplant" is set to release late Summer 2026 through Nike and select retailers for a retail price of $170, available in men's sizing. To stay informed on all things Nike and to stay up to date with the latest releases, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter.
