In honor of National Indigenous Peoples Day in Canada, Nike proudly unveils its Summer 2025 N7 Collection, a thoughtfully designed line of essential daily sportswear celebrating the strength, culture, and future of Indigenous communities across North America.
This season’s collection blends style, performance, and cultural significance, reinforcing Nike’s long-standing commitment to Indigenous representation in sport and community empowerment through its N7 initiative.
A Collection Rooted in Purpose
The Summer 2025 N7 Collection features unisex wardrobe staples including a Club pullover hoodie, crew T-shirt, Club Flow mesh shorts, and a 7/8-length Nike One women’s tight. Anchored in versatility, the white tops and black bottoms are adorned with a multicolor N7 logo, offering everyday comfort and cultural pride.
Completing the collection are two coveted footwear drops:
- The Nike Dunk Low in an exclusive turquoise colorway, designed specifically for this N7 release.
- The return of the Free Forward Moc 2, a moccasin-inspired design originally debuted in 2014, updated with a geometric N7 footbed and tongue detailing.
Both sneakers are subtle yet powerful nods to Indigenous traditions, combining storytelling with performance innovation.
Representing the Next Generation
At the heart of the campaign are two Indigenous athletes: SilentRain Espinoza, softball player for the Atlanta Smoke, and Ryan Helsley, MLB pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. Their involvement exemplifies the collection’s mission: to ensure Native youth see themselves reflected in sport and culture.
“This collection is a reminder of something I realized in college,” says Espinoza. “That I’m playing for more than myself—I’m inspiring the next generation of Native athletes as an example and a role model.”
“Nike embraces that mission through N7,” adds Helsley. “That dedication really drove me to want to be a part of this season’s collection.”
The campaign’s visuals feature a gritty, wheat-paste art backdrop, developed in collaboration with Indigenous artists. These textures explore contemporary Native identity and celebrate the voices shaping today’s Indigenous narratives.
More Than Fashion: Investing in the Future
Nike’s N7 initiative isn’t just about design—it’s about investment. Coinciding with the collection’s launch is the announcement of the 2025 N7 Fund grantees. Since its inception, the N7 Fund has awarded over $13.4 million to more than 300 Indigenous-led organizations, supporting youth-focused initiatives in sport, wellness, and leadership development.
In 2025, 17 organizations will receive grants, including:
- Wings of America
- The Notah Begay III Foundation
- Native American Community Academy Foundation
- Alaska Native Heritage Center Native Youth Olympics
- 4 The Future Foundation, and more.
The N7 Fund continues to empower communities from coast to coast, channeling the power of sport to uplift Indigenous youth and create lasting change.
