Through the Swift and Stride Collections, Nike unleashes running essentials that set new standards for performance apparel. These innovative lines address the specific needs of both female and male runners, introducing thoughtfully designed pieces that combine functionality with style.
The collections feature advanced performance features such as Dri-FIT technology, comprehensive UV protection, and strategic 360-degree reflective elements – technical advancements that enable athletes to maintain peak performance regardless of weather conditions or time of day.
“The Swift collection represents our commitment to understanding the needs of female runners,” said Kema Ferrall, Senior Director of Global Women’s Running Apparel. The line includes ten versatile pieces designed specifically for women, with refined hems and enhanced comfort features that minimize distractions while running.
The Stride line features five essential pieces, including a revolutionary packable Repel UV jacket. Each garment is rigorously tested to ensure optimal breathability and functionality, while incorporating practical storage solutions for today’s runner.
Product Line Manager Patrick Montoya emphasizes, “We created gear that matches the determination and adaptability of runners.” The collections underwent extensive athlete testing across a range of body types and experience levels, resulting in refined designs that serve diverse running communities.
The Nike Swift and Stride collections will be available globally through nike.com and select retail partners beginning January 1, 2025.
