Review consensus

Reviewers praise the S.T. Charge for its dependable grip and outdoor durability, and the Cushlon 3.0 and forefoot Zoom setup gives most players enough impact protection. The rubber-covered upper locks the foot down well, but it feels stiff and heavy, needs breaking in, runs narrow and ventilates poorly.

About the shoe

The Nike S.T. Charge is an outdoor-focused basketball shoe in Nike’s Street Tough (S.T.) line and follows the S.T. Flare. It was first sold only in China. Cade Cunningham debuted it at NBA All-Star 2026, and it reached the US in May 2026 as his “Detroit Tough” PE for $140. New features include a translucent XDR-X rubber outsole, which develops Nike’s XDR compound, and an all-new Monster Skin upper. Underfoot, a Cushlon 3.0 drop-in midsole is paired with a forefoot Zoom Turbo unit and a credit card-sized midfoot shank.
