Silver Surfer Shox R419 Follows Mystique Eleven Days Later

Corteiz releases the Nike Shox R419 Silver Surfer online on Sunday, November 15 at 7 PM London time, eleven days after the blue Mystique pair opened the three shoe pack. Silver Surfer was the colorway Corteiz showed first in October, and it ships second. Corteiz and Nike collaboration apparel launches alongside it, shipping is worldwide, and sign up runs through r419.com.

Sunday, November 15, 7 PM in London

The Silver Surfer goes on sale Sunday, November 15, 2026 at 19:00 London time, which is 2 PM in New York now that both cities have left daylight saving. Corteiz is routing the release through r419.com sign up, the address it also used for Mystique, with apparel pieces launching in the same window and worldwide shipping on.

That makes two R419 dates eleven days apart. Mystique opened on Wednesday, November 4, also at 7 PM London time, carrying style code IQ9951 400 in Game Royal, University Red and Black. Silver Surfer now has its own night, and Black Widow, the black pair coded IQ9951 002, still has no date from Corteiz.

Silver Surfer Was Shown First and Ships Second

Hypebeast and Captain Creps both led their October coverage with the Shox R419 in metallic silver, and the blue pair surfaced about a week later. Sneaker News published its first R419 story on October 19 and did not get to the Game Royal pair until October 27. The silver shoe carried the reveal; the blue shoe carried the first sale.

Corteiz has done this before with Nike. Coverage of the R419 noted ahead of time that all three colorways might land on separate days, the way earlier Corteiz and Nike releases were staggered, and the pack is now running to that pattern. Each colorway gets its own evening and its own wave of attention.

The outside dates were wrong in both directions. A UK report floated October 31 and never held. Sneaker Bar Detroit listed the metallic pair for November 20 through Nike SNKRS, five days after the date Corteiz has now set for its own site. Nike has not confirmed a SNKRS launch for any R419 colorway.

Chrome Upper, Black Tongue, 419 in the Sole

The Silver Surfer is coded IQ9951 001, listed as Metallic Silver, Metallic Silver, University Red and Black. Silver covers the upper, while the laces, lining and tongue run black, which is why Captain Creps called it close to full chrome without quite getting there. One release listing describes a carbon fiber pattern along the sides and across the black tongue.

The base shoe is the Nike Shox R4, the running model with four visible cushioning columns at the heel. On the Silver Surfer those columns stay silver, framed by a black heel cage above and a black outsole below. The R419 name swaps the R4's number for 419, the figure from Clint419, the handle founder Clint Ogbenna uses online, and one outlet reports the number is stamped into the sole mould.

The name comes from Marvel. Silver Surfer, Black Widow and Mystique are all Marvel characters, and the Silver Surfer, a chrome skinned herald who first appeared in Fantastic Four #48 in 1966, is the obvious match for the one pair finished in metal. Most listings give a retail price of $190 for each pair, with Sole Retriever listing $180.

Mystique Went to Harajuku Before It Went Online

Mystique's first sale was not in London. Corteiz ran a Tokyo pop up at The Hall Harajuku, in Jingumae, Shibuya, on Saturday, October 31 and Sunday, November 1, from 11 AM to 6 PM, with Mystique and the Corteiz and Nike apparel on the rails. Mystique went online worldwide three days later.

Tokyo got the blue pair before the web did. Corteiz has named no pop up for the Silver Surfer.

The apparel is where the details stay thin. Earlier reporting split between a nine piece line of football shirts with nylon tracksuits and shorts in black, royal blue, silver and red, and a second list of track jackets, track pants, an AeroLoft vest, base layers, jerseys and shorts. The silver in the first list lines up with this week's shoe. Neither list has been confirmed by Corteiz or Nike, and Corteiz has named no individual pieces for the November 15 launch.

Forget the Day of the Week. Corteiz Keeps the Hour.

Corteiz has moved its release day from Sunday to Friday to Wednesday and back to Sunday since summer, and has not moved its release hour once. The August 2 store opening was a Sunday at 7 PM London time. The October 23 opening moved to a Friday, at 7 PM. Mystique took a Wednesday, at 7 PM. Silver Surfer returns to Sunday, at 7 PM.

The Nike thread is older than the Shox. On April 1, Corteiz's Lotto drop handed out scratch cards whose prizes included 95 pairs of Nike Air Max 95 Honey Blacks ahead of their release, and Hypebeast ran the first preview of the Corteiz and Nike apparel collaboration in November 2024. The Shox itself has been a running Nike story this year, from the Shox BB4 reissue at Third of June in August to the R419.

Silver Surfer, IQ9951 001, opens at 7 PM London time on Sunday, November 15, the second of three pairs, with Black Widow still unscheduled.
