Nike Air

Stay supported as you smash through your training goals in Nike Air Zoom shoes. We make them to promote powerful, explosive movements for intense bursts of activity. For a snappy, responsive feel underfoot, discover pairs with lightweight uppers that set you free to fly. Our company's journey began with a game-changing pair of running shoes, and we've been innovating ever since.

At the heart of these trainers is the Nike Air Zoom unit. It uses the same compressed-air technology you'll find in our standard Air unit to absorb shock and impact—without weighing you down. Plus, we've added internal tensile fibres. These help the cushioning snap rapidly back into place for exceptional energy return to power you forward. We also make the units with a slimline outsole, getting you closer to the ground for great manoeuvrability.

At Nike, we know every sport and every athlete is unique. That's why we design Nike Air Zoom shoes in a range of styles to suit the needs of your discipline. You can choose breathable mesh uppers that flex with you for a barely-there feel. If you need extra durability, look out for leather pairs. Plus, we have designs with lightly textured outsoles that are ideal for smooth, hard surfaces. And to get stability and traction on the turf, go for studded options built with field sports in mind.

Nike's Move to Zero is our journey towards zero carbon and zero waste to help protect the future of sport. To join us, choose some Nike Air Zoom trainers with the Sustainable Materials tag. It means we've made the shoes with at least 20% recycled content. Think durable polyester spun from old plastic bottles, carpets and fishing nets diverted from landfill. And since 2008, we've made all our Nike Air units at our Oregon and Missouri facilities with at least 25% post-manufacturing waste.
