Guided by the philosophy of Colin Chapman—"simplify, then add lightness"—Nike strips back the design with the Ava X. The silhouette focuses on weight reduction without sacrificing structure, pairing a textile upper with synthetic leather overlays for durability. Underfoot, a Cushion 3.0 midsole provides responsive cushioning, while a high-abrasion outsole adds grip across varied conditions. The result is a lightweight trainer built with a more streamlined, functional approach.

Nike updates the Free Metcon 7 with improved midfoot containment while retaining its signature Nike Free flexibility. Designed for a barefoot-like feel, the shoe uses a lightweight upper that moves easily between dynamic training and explosive lifts. A redesigned lacing system replaces Flywire cables with a webbed structure integrated into an inner sleeve for a more secure fit. Underfoot, a dual-density foam setup delivers a stable heel and softer forefoot, balancing support and flexibility for high-intensity sessions.
