Every year, millions of pairs of athletic shoes are thrown away, clogging landfills and wasting a lot of good material. So we’ve created a solution to allow you to recycle your old shoes! Reuse-A-Shoe, part of our Let Me Play campaign, is one of Nike’s longest-running environmental and community programs, where worn-out athletic shoes of any brand are collected, processed and recycled into material used in sports surfaces like basketball courts, tennis courts, athletic fields, running tracks and playgrounds for young people around the world.

Bring a new, top-of-the-line playing field to your neighborhood & join theses athletes on a massive LA mural.

Kobe Bryant, Paul Rodriquez & Serena Williams represent some of the greatest athletic achievements of our time, but today, more importantly, they’re representing the need for equal opportunity in the athletic arena.

On October 21st, 20,000 women and girls all across the country will be coming together to run in the Nike Women’s Marathon and join in the battle against cancer.

With the summer coming to an end it’s time to clear your mind and gear up for the 5-mile race that’s part hang-out, part work-out. The Nike Run Hit Remix is back in full effect at the LA Memorial Coliseum on Saturday, September 15th at 9am ET.
