Nike Ava Edge
The city becomes a concrete playground with the Nike Ava Edge, navigating everything from morning commutes on crowded sidewalks to late night rooftop bars and adventures. Inspired by the geometry and interconnected grid networks of modern cities, the upper layers are formed by weaving textiles with breathable mesh netting to create a flexible and protective fit around the foot. An oversized midsole uses performance-level SCF foam for soft cushioning through long days on concrete, while a flexible, perforated rubber outsole wraps onto the midsole for added durability and leaves a distinctive imprint behind with every step. Combining technical construction with an urban-focused silhouette, the Ava Edge takes the active lifestyle of the Ava lineup off the running route and into the everyday rhythm of the city.

The Oldest Restaurant in the World
Nearly 300 hundred years is a long time to be in business — especially if that business is the restaurant business. Serving food is no laughing matter. Fickle trends, a bad review, or one off-night from a server can mean the difference between thriving and closing. That is what makes the longevity of Madrid's Restaurante Botín so impressive.
