Nike Air Force 1 Vibram
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. Originally inspired in part by the Nike Approach hiking boot, Bruce Kilgore's legendary design returns with a rugged update featuring a durable textile upper and a Vibram outsole built to tackle terrain beyond the pavement. 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.

Nike Ava X
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.
