Nike N7 Returns With Football-Inspired Summer 2026 Lineup

Nike is continuing its long-running N7 initiative with a new football-inspired collection for Summer 2026, celebrating Indigenous communities both on and off the pitch through apparel, footwear, and storytelling rooted in Native culture.

Timed alongside one of the biggest summers in global football, the latest Nike N7 Collection features a range of sportswear and footwear designed with Indigenous athletes and communities at the center. The collection includes a mesh football jersey, matching shorts, training apparel, Max 90 T-shirts, and special-edition colorways of the Nike Gato N7 and Nike P-6000 N7.

Across the collection, Nike pulls inspiration from Indigenous weaving and textile traditions, with graphics and color palettes informed by the natural landscapes of the Southwest. Earthy clay tones, water-inspired blues, and rugged terrain hues are used throughout the apparel and footwear, reflecting Native craftsmanship and storytelling through sport.

Leading the campaign is Madison Hammond, a member of the San Felipe Pueblo (Katishtya), Navajo (Diné), and Black communities, who also became the first Native American player to compete in the NWSL. Joining her is midfielder TJ Kahoalii, who is Tolowa Dee-Ni' Nation and Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian). Together, the campaign continues Nike’s focus on representation and visibility for Indigenous athletes across sport and culture.

“Collaboration was central to this collection,” said Lauren Thomas, Expert Designer for N7 and Jordan Brand, and a member of the Mi'kmaq First Nations tribe. According to Nike, many of the collection’s details were shaped through conversations with Hammond surrounding football, personal style, and cultural identity.

The collection also ties back to Nike’s broader N7 mission and the N7 Fund, which supports Indigenous and Native-serving nonprofit organizations across North America. Since 2009, Nike states it has contributed more than $15 million to Indigenous-focused organizations through grants and funding initiatives.

The Nike N7 Collection will release on June 18 via Nike.com and select retailers across the U.S. and Canada.
