Hold onto your hats, Kim Kardashian fans and Pilates princesses, because NikeSKIMS is officially launching in Australia.
After launching internationally last September, Kardashian’s activewear brand in collaboration with sports giant Nike is finally making its way Down Under. Little ol’ Australia is always slept on, but we’re no longer forgotten!
NikeSKIMS a separate activewear label to Nike, and is co-founded with SKIMS. Think of it as the Pilates princess branch of Nike’s activewear universe — less marathons, more matcha lattes post-reformer class. Designed with Skims’ signature body-hugging silhouette and Nike’s performance tech, the range is aimed squarely at the low-impact, high-aesthetic crowd.
The Aussie launch isn’t unplanned timing; it comes in coordination with NikeSKIMS’ Spring ’26 Collection, which is also the brand’s first head-to-toe system of dress. Inspired by ‘the modern ballerina’, the collection is intended to represent elegance, grace in motion and strength in form.
The collection’s campaign launch video featured featured supremely talented BLACKPINK member LISA along with a cohort of professional dancers rocking the new range. They’re all dancing, body rolling along, and serving absolute face. As far as campaign videos go, this one piqued my interest right off the bat.
“When I’m performing, it’s all about looking great while still being able to move and dance,” LISA said to Nike. “The NikeSKIMS collection is so comfortable and light that I feel confident wearing it everywhere — from rehearsals to traveling or even relaxing at home.”
NikeSKIMS’ Spring ’26 Collection is comprised of five different collections within the wider range: Matte, Stretch Knit, Ribbed Seamless, Weightless Layers and Woven Nylon. Each of the different fabrics is designed to be lightweight, breathable and functional, combining Nike’s technology with SKIMS’ aesthetic.
“This Spring ‘26 Collection celebrates the timeless poise and elegance of ballerinas but with a distinct modern twist,” Kim Kardashian said to Nike.
“We obsessed every detail — from the soft lines and feminine colours to the premium materials. Each piece is a statement of beauty and allows women to move with confidence and grace.”
The Spring ’26 Collection also marks the brand’s first venture into footwear. Sure, Nike has done a bucketload of shoes in the past, but this is the two brands’ first ~collaboration~, so they’re marking it as a first. And the shoes in question?
Tabi’s, baby.
A polarising choice! They’re not for everyone, but those who love them, love them.
The NikeSKIMS Rift Satin ($240) has the same tabi-toe design of the original Nike Rift, a strap across the midfoot, satin upper material, minimalist midsole and a textured logo outsole. It’s like a hybrid between a ballet shoe and a sneaker, but also looks like it would be great for bouldering?? She’s giving hybrid.
NikeSKIMS officially launches in Australia on Friday, February 5 at 9am, and is available to shop both on the SKIMS and Nike websites. Sizes range from XXS to 4XL, and prices begin at $35 and go up to $240 so it’s a pretty encompassing and inclusive range.
If you wanna start planning what you’re going to add to your cart, you can preview some of our favourites from the NikeSKIMS range below.
14 Pieces Our Editors Are Shopping From The NikeSKIMS Range
NikeSKIMS Matte
The matte collection is all about soft, smooth and sculpting fabrics. It uses Nike’s Dri-FIT technology, so it will help wick sweat away, and has two levels of compression.
NikeSKIMS Stretch Knit
NikeSKIMS Stretch Knit is more inclined to those who love a hot girl walk or a chill, low intensity workout class. The fabric is soft, drapey and lightweight — perfect for a barre or lowkey mat class.
NikeSKIMS Weightless Layers
The Weightless Layers range is a small but mighty part of NikeSKIMS’ Spring ’26 Collection. It’s ultra lightweight, breathable and slightly sheer, so it’s great for layering over sports bras for a chic sporty look. As for the leggings, they have an opaque V covering your bits, so they won’t be on full show. You could pair them with the Stretch Knit Wrap Skirt, or rock them on their own.
NikeSKIMS Ribbed Seamless
If you lean towards the worn-in aesthetic and go for activewear that doesn’t really feel like activewear at all, you’ll love the Ribbed Seamless NikeSKIMS range. Made with a nylon and elastane blend, this collection is soft, stretchy and versatile, making it the perfect uniform for running errands pre or post workout.
NikeSKIMS Woven Nylon
The Woven Nylon range is the smallest from the spring collection, comprised of one belted coat in two different colourways: black and chocolate brown. It’s a relaxed, light-yet-warm material that’s designed to act as a third layer, whether you’re commuting to and from your workout class or going for a chilly morning walk.
NikeSKIMS launches at 9am on Friday, February 5, so set your alarms and get your card details ready!
