Nike Wildhorse 8

Hoof it from the trailhead to the top, and handle winding paths, rolling hills and everything in between in the Nike Wildhorse 8. With an abundance of rugged traction, cushioned responsiveness and trusted containment to help keep you upright, it’s made for tough trail runs, the ones with limitless miles and gnarly terrain that are too enticing to turn down. This special design is part of our ongoing #IYKYK series. It traverses the Pyrenees mountains via the GR 11, using the coastal lighthouses as your guide from the Mediterranean Sea to the Cantabrian Sea.

Behind the Design

GR 11 is a bucket-list excursion for worldwide trail running enthusiasts. The painted red-and-white stripes on the midsole signify the signage colors used across the trail. The “lighthouse to lighthouse” landmarks on the insoles and splashes of yellow throughout represent beacons of light for the runners fortunate to complete the entire course. The deep blues herald the ocean waters that greet the runners at the 750-km trek’s start and finish. Greens and grays represent the rocks and limestone peppering the Pyrenees.

Smooth and Springy

Nike React technology is a lightweight, durable foam that delivers a smooth, responsive ride.

Feel the Connection

The rubber outsole is reinforced with abrasion resistance for durability and provides optimal grip—even on wet surfaces—so you can stay connected to the trail on ascents and descents, rain or shine.

Saddle Up

A midfoot saddle helps keep your foot contained and secure for lateral movement and landing, so that you can hit the trail with confidence.

Stay Cool

We infused modernized materials into the upper for a structured, breathable, lightweight feel that offers optimal ventilation.
