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.
