FA25 Future Runway

Introduction

In Fa25 we introduced the New Icons for HER in EMEA: Air Max Muse and Air Superfly. Born from sport and reimagined for life. 

Our focus was sharp: Elevate EMEA Front Runners. 
It’s all about those who set the pace, not the ones who follow it.

1. Elevate EMEA
Front Runners

Tyla x The Face

With Global superstar and Front Runner Tyla featuring in the global campaign assets, we took the opportunity to kickstart the energy early in July, when Tyla performed at Danish festival Roskilde. Partnering with The Face magazine, we focused on building momentum and visibility for Tyla as a Front Runner in 10 Things to Know about Tyla and on our @nikesportswear IG with a carousel of backstage assets with Tyla.

With Tyla organically opting for the Veneda Carter Air Max Muse, the energy around the moment grew as Veneda reposted the content to her own IG, resulting in elevated engagement and traction.

London: Fashion

With the goal to elevate Future Front Runners, we partnered with fashion incubator Fashion East in London.

Three up and coming designers (Jawara Alleyne, Ashley Williams and HRH) created unique shoe charms which were available exclusively across 2 Nike doors in London during London Fashion Week.

Chloé Caillet
Ibiza Takeover

Anchored around the Smiile Party at Pikes Club in Ibiza curated by Dj Chloe Caillet, the activation included a curated showroom, a Front Runners Lunch and a premium VIP experience at Pikes. Celebrities, DJs, artists, models, and athletes like Ana Furia engaged with Nike products in organic, elevated ways, generating buzz through styling, seeding, and visibility across music, fashion, and culture.

This approach positioned Nike to claim Ibiza’s cultural stage - an open, high-value space no sports brand has yet occupied.

Barcelona

During Barcelona’s Festival Season, the city transformed into a global hub of music, culture, and creativity, offering unforgettable experiences for Front Runners seeking inspiration and connection.

Through Spring Ceremonies, the South team created an immersive three-day journey fusing Nike product, music, culinary, and sensory experiences.
Curated by DJs Isabella, Toccororo, and Chloe Caillet, each ceremony transformed a hidden metro space into an enigmatic world featuring Muse and Superfly.

With this, we reinforced our role as a catalyst for creativity and self-expression.

Joburg

Joburg brought Future Runway to life with an editorial of their Front Runners in collaboration with The Manor. 

Spotlighting six trailblazing Front Runners, each making waves in their respective industries (sports, fashion, art)  - through the lens of our Muse & Superfly. Building on that momentum, the team hosted Sunday Best—a celebratory event that brought together style, great food, and exceptional company to honour these standout individuals in true fashion.

Bringing Paris Front Runners to Rock en Seine festival for an elevated experience.

The activation was a real success and highly appreciated by all the guest who loved the space design, the exclusive presence of hair and makeup artists, as well as dedicated food and beverage stands.

Each of them shared numerous stories (over 30) and/or posts on Instagram, showcasing both the Muse and Superfly they were all wearing, along with the Nike lounge set-up. The assets (logo, experience) were maximized to their full potential, reaching a combined audience of 680K.
