A vivid "Eggplant" colorway is going to be featured on the Hot Step 2 that Drake and Nike are planning to release. This release, which is appropriate for the summer of 2024 and offers sneaker aficionados a trendy footwear option, is part of the early lineup and comes in "Total Orange" and "White" varieties.

Drake and Nike's collaboration has been broadened with the release of the NOCTA Hot Step 2, which is an evolution of the 2022 Hot Step and features a sizeable yet fashionable structure. This model successfully combines modern elements with a nostalgic aesthetic, drawing influence from basketball shoes and turf trainers from the 1990s.

In addition to having a futuristic appearance, the footwear features ventilated mesh and synthetic leather additions, and it comes in a contemporary combination of Eggplant, Gunmetal, and University Gold. Adding a touch of refinement to the shoe are Gunmetal embellishments on the Swoosh insignia, midfoot TPU reinforcements, and heel sections.

Not only does the NOCTA insignia on the tongue provide an interesting statement, but the foam midsole featuring Nike Air cushioning ensures that the shoe is both comfortable and fashionable.

Be on the lookout for the Drake x Nike NOCTA Hot Step 2 “Eggplant” rendition that will reportedly hit the shelves in the coming weeks. Fans and other interested parties are advised to stay connected with Swoosh’s site for timely alerts on their launch.


In addition to the Eggplant version already stated, the Drake x Nike NOCTA Hot Step 2 will be released in different colors, including "Total Orange" and "White." The retail price of these shoes is $200 as well.
