In 1986, the worst nuclear disaster in human history occurred at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Reactor No. 4 went into meltdown and exploded, blanketing the surrounding area with radioactive waste and causing a massive evacuation.

HBO's miniseries documents the disaster from the perspective of the plant workers, cleanup crew, and citizens who lived through the disaster. Chernobyl premieres May 2019 on HBO.

Running has become more than training for the next finish line. It's sunrise run clubs, destination marathons, and post-run coffee stops that turn a workout into a community. From early coffee meetups in Austin to race weekends across the country, Nike's Ava X is built for the lifestyle surrounding every mile. A lightweight textile upper with synthetic leather accents delivers breathable comfort in a sleek, packable silhouette, while a Cushlon 3.0 midsole provides soft, responsive cushioning for everything from recovery walks to morning shakeout runs. A supportive fit and durable outsole with textured grip round out a sneaker designed to move effortlessly between the run, the café, and wherever the rest of the day leads.
The Air Force 1 has spent more than four decades proving it belongs almost anywhere. Now Nike takes the iconic silhouette back to one of the ideas that helped shape it.

Nike Air cushioning preserves the everyday comfort that made the AF1 a cultural icon, while the trail-ready sole adds dependable traction for mountain hikes, weekend escapes, and everything in between. It is a fitting evolution for Nike's best-selling sneaker, reminding us that the Air Force 1 has always been built to explore beyond the court.
