Nike to launch Apex performance running shoe in 2027
Nike is preparing to launch the Nike Apex, a high-performance running shoe, on January 7, 2027. The model is priced at $350 and is intended for both elite marathon runners and recreational athletes.
The shoe will utilize ZoomX LT, the most premium variation of Nike’s proprietary ZoomX foam. Originally derived from aerospace technology, ZoomX is known for high energy return. Nike has also developed SkyX, a more accessible foam option that uses a beaded foam and steam-molding process to mimic the performance qualities of ZoomX.
