Game On: This Nike Capsule Comes Correct for Paris 2024

The Summer Games are just around the corner, and if two weeks of world-class sports don’t inspire you to get off the couch, maybe, just maybe some shiny new sports gear will. The common consensus between athletes is that you perform best when you feel you’re looking your best, and for that reason, Nike have gone all out with their Paris 2024-themed offerings. But the top-of-the-range tech and thematic releases haven’t just been made for the pros – they’re also available to the everyday athletes who also play their part in keeping the Beaverton machine turning – and there’s plenty on offer in Nike’s latest edit.

Going Wild

Kicking the celebrations off in style, the Swoosh have dropped a 55-shoe-strong ‘Electric Pack’, which pays homage to Tinker Hatfield’s ‘Safari’ print. The huge collection calls back memories of the brand’s ‘Neon Ambush’ in 2012, with silhouettes spanning a whopping 32 sports (bonus points if you can name them all!). As well as sporty football, running, basketball and skateboarding styles, the pack also contains some lifestyle faves, and with so many pairs on offer, you’re bound to find a souvenir to celebrate the occasion here.

Setting the Pace

As the super shoe race heats up, all eyes are on the men’s and women’s marathons on August 10 and 11. But given Nike’s track record, the Alphafly 3 stands a pretty good chance at taking home gold. If you want to try your hand at running 26 miles in one of the world’s speediest running shoes, the ‘Safari’ Alphafly 3s are available to shop now, but for the everyday runner, the Pegasus 41 is a more suitable option. And if you’re enjoying summer in the Northern Hemisphere – a pair of wrap-around, road-tinted sunglasses will help you spot that finish line from a mile away.

Ballin’ Out

Basketball fans are also spoilt for choice, with a ton of ‘Team USA’ hoopers shooting goals. Sitting alongside the ‘Electric’ G.T. Hustle and G.T. Cut, Nike have prepped red, white and blue versions of Ja Morant’s Ja 1, Kevin Durant’s KD17 and G.T. Cut Academy, alongside a selection of jerseys and off-court staples for Team USA, Canada, France and Greece. Even if you can’t sit courtside in the French capital, there’s nothing to stop you looking the part as you cheer your team on from home.
