Caitlin Clark had one word to describe fashion in Indiana Fever’s partnership with the Netflix series Stranger Things. The Fever is diving back into the Upside Down, set to debut their eerie alternate jerseys inspired by the fan-favorite show in this basketball-pop culture crossover.
As anticipation mounts for the final season of Stranger Things, the Indiana Fever took to X/Twitter to unveil their return of their themed jerseys for the second half of the season. The post featured members of the squad modeling the eerie new threads, paired with a haunting caption: “Looking more like Hawkins, Indiana. See what’s lurking behind our walls.”

This limited-edition jersey changes the Fever’s classic look to a darker, retro twist with red and black hues, vintage font, Demogorgon claw accents, and a “011” wristband, inspired by the show’s character, Eleven.

Coupled with this, of course, were the beloved one-word reactions of Indiana’s roster. Some called it “epic,” “fire,” and “pretty dope.” But Caitlin Clark dubbed it as “spooky,” in a deep, very mysterious tone.

The Fever, even with Caitlin Clark sidelined, will wear these jerseys starting on Thursday’s match against the Las Vegas Aces at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse, followed by their matches on July 30, August 9, 12, 26, 29, and September 9. Stranger Things fans, buckle up, this team is bringing the weird, the wild, and their own flavor of Hawkins heat.
Speaking on Saturday’s interview with Glamour’s Samantha Barry, Caitlin Clark opened up about the grind of her WNBA life, and how her body and mindset continue to adapt to the daily demands of pro basketball.
“This is the first time I haven’t felt like a young body that can run around and sprint every day and just continue to do that,” Clark said. “Being a professional athlete, you really have to take care of both your body and your mind. It’s been a journey learning about that.”

Caitlin Clark also shared how she’s consulting with a sports psychologist, trusting them as a key part of her routine as she continues to recover from her groin injury. The Indiana Fever star got struck thrice with injuries this season, with her left quad injury missing her five games last May and June.
