Nike Air Native N7


Nike has created the first-of-a-kind performance shoe designed to address the specific fit and width requirements for the Native American foot. The Air Native N7 was created to help promote fitness amongst Native Americans, a community with high obesity rates. Research shows Native Americans have taller and wider feet than general so the the Air Native will be wider with a larger toe box and have other modifications to help with comfort. The shoe will also have "several "heritage callouts" including sunrise to sunset to sunrise patterns on the tongue and heel of the shoe. Feather designs adorn the inside and stars are on the sole to represent the night sky."

It will be distributed solely to American Indians and all proceeds from the sale of the shoe will be reinvested in health programs for tribal lands...Ill 'kicks AND charity...That's good ish...
