Nike | ISPA Universal

Progress, experimentation and craft. At it again, the ISPA Universal creates space for those who seek deeper meaning and connection to the products they use. From its modularity (replaceable components for a longer-lasting product) to the zero-glue design and so much more, the ISPA Universal lets you step into the future of footwear.
Inside and out, every detail has a purpose. The absence of glue means less waste. Bio-EVA foam, used throughout the design, is made from bio-based feedstocks derived from sugar cane. (Translation? We're working to replace petroleum-based ingredients with alternatives as we continue our Move to Zero journey towards zero carbon and zero waste.) And each pair comes with two sets of moisture-absorbing, 40% cork insoles—once the first set breaks down, you can simply replace the insole instead of replacing the whole shoe.
And don't let all that newness fool you—the look is rooted to our sneaker history. Inspired by 4 Nike icons—the Air Max 270, the Zoom Type, the Zoom Pegasus 37 and the Solarsoft HTM—the ISPA Universal harnesses computer-driven data to create a one-of-a-kind pair inspired by our heritage. Every pair is buffed by hand too, resulting in a unique artisan finish that differs from shoe to shoe. Breath of fresh air, anyone?Nike ISPA: a philosophy entwining the concepts of improvise, scavenge, protect and adapt. This chapter of ISPA explores the concept of modularity and material choice as a design solution to help make the world a better place. Guided by the principles of durability, longevity and waste reduction, we're committed to leading footwear design into a space that allows humans and nature to live in harmony.
