How to apply in Nike Voice of the Athlete Program
This official initiative gives real athletes the chance to test unreleased shoes, clothing, and accessories — helping Nike refine every new launch.
What is Nike Athlete’s Voice?
It’s a worldwide testing platform where Nike sends prototype gear to runners, gym lovers, team players, and fitness enthusiasts.
The mission is clear: to collect genuine feedback on comfort, durability, and innovation so that each product can be perfected before going public.
