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.

The CURREX RUNPRO proves that one of the most effective running upgrades isn't a new pair of shoes. It is what goes inside them. Developed by German sports scientists and backed by biomechanical research, the performance insole is engineered to improve comfort, stability, and efficiency with every stride.

As the top aftermarket insole in U.S. specialty run stores and a leader in Europe, the RUNPRO offers a science-driven way to get more out of every mile.

The adidas Originals Samba has earned its place as a timeless streetwear staple by staying true to the design that made it iconic. Born on the soccer field, the silhouette pairs a full-grain leather upper with gritty suede overlays and signature gold foil details for a look that feels both classic and contemporary. A synthetic leather lining enhances comfort, while the gum rubber midsole and durable cupsole provide lightweight cushioning and dependable traction for everyday wear. Sometimes the best updates come from leaving a legend exactly as it is.
