Nike Unisex Zoom Rival Waffle 7

Effortlessly Cross from Training to Race Days With Nike’s Versatile Cross Country Shoe

The Nike Zoom Rival Waffle 7 is the perfect choice for entry- to mid- level cross country athletes looking to reach all their season goals. The shoe can easily cross over from training runs to high-effort races, so you can pick up the pace and fly towards any finish line in comfort.

Instead of spikes, the Zoom Rival Waffle 7 has a full waffle outsole designed for maximum grip on nearly any surface. Whether the cross country course features roads, trails, gravel, mud, and more, you’ll be ready to tackle whatever it throws at you in confidence.

Underfoot, there’s a minimal stack of foam, absorbing shock throughout runs while keeping the shoe agile and lightweight. The 7th iteration also saw an upgrade to the upper construction. An ultra-light, open-hole mesh upper ensures maximum breathability and water drainage to keep you dry and comfortable on any terrain. Nike also reinforced high-wear areas around the upper for more durability through all your cross country mileage.
