Bill Bowerman, Nike's original innovator, put our blueprint in place. He also inspired the design details of our Blueprint collection, like the speckled Swoosh logo. Plus, a snappy and responsive Air Zoom unit helps you spring from one step to the next. Abrasion-resistant rubber helps add durability to the outsole while a Waffle-inspired traction pattern adds grip. Heel extension helps optimize your landing space when your foot hits the ground. Padded tongue and collar lining help provide extra comfort.
