Nike and Justin Timberlake are Dropping a $500 Nike Victory Tour 4 Made in Italy

Golfers have been patiently waiting for Nike to launch its Victory Tour 4 silhouette as pros like Rory McIlroy have been taking the course in the sneaker for months. While they’ve launched the first GR colorway of the sneaker and recently added it to its collection celebrating Augusta’s 13th hole, an ultra-premium version of the shoe made in collaboration with Justin Timberlake is expected to hit shelves very soon.

While the Timberlake connection may seem out of left field, Justin is an avid golfer and has been part of the Nike family for years, famously getting multiple Air Jordan collaborations throughout the 2010s. Marking his first collaborative endeavor with Nike Golf and his first publicly available release from The Swoosh since 2018, Timberlake gives the Made in Italy sneaker a clean oatmeal-shaded upper contrasted by hits of pink tint and hot lava. Premium tumbled leather is the base around the toe and midfoot and finds a home on the heel overlay.

Smooth leather lines the mudguard, running back to the suede collar and heel overlay. Updated branding with the Italian phrase “Raggio Di Sole,” translating to “a ray of the sun” or “sunbeam” in English, is found on the tongue alongside a graphic of a golf ball and a cup of coffee. The coffee theme also appears on the cork insole as stained circles are found near the forefoot of the insert. Here, we also see a logo for Montebelluna, a city in Italy that has become famous for its footwear manufacturing. It is home to a Nike factory that makes footwear for its top-tier athletes.

Justin Timberlake reserves his mark for the lining of the tongue, which features a tag written in Italian that notes the year of production for the shoe, the lot number (1,981), and the designer, the latter seeing the superstar’s signature. Final details include the tonal midsole, pink outsole with spikes, and a custom “A Ray Of The Sun” branded box with matching socks.

The Justin Timberlake x Nike Victory Tour 4 Made in Italy will release on April 18, 2025, through Nike online. Limited to 1,981 pairs, a nod to the year Timberlake was born, the retail price is $500.
