About this product
The Nike Rival Waffle 7 is a highly versatile, spikeless cross-country and track shoe engineered to handle both training and race-day efforts.
Widely praised by athletes for its feather-light feel and aggressive traction, the Rival Waffles 7 features a full-length Waffle outsole that delivers relentless grip across dirt, grass, and rugged terrain. Re-engineered with an updated open-hole mesh upper, it ensures elite breathability and rapid water drainage, making it the ultimate tool for conquering unpredictable courses.
UPPER
- Advanced Drainage Mesh: Ultra-breathable, lightweight open-hole mesh that sheds water instantly when running through wet grass, mud, or rain.
- Rugged Reinforcements: High-wear zones across the upper are strategically reinforced, providing excellent durability and protection against trail debris without adding weight.
- Plush Mesh Tongue: A soft, padded mesh tongue contours to the top of your foot, effectively relieving pressure and discomfort from tight racing laces.
MIDSOLE
- Minimalist Midsole Foam: A low-profile, lightweight foam midsole delivers just the right amount of underfoot comfort and impact protection while preserving a responsive, close-to-the-ground feel.
OUTSOLE
- Full-Length Waffle Outsole: A comprehensive, rubber Waffle tread pattern that bites into loose surfaces, ensuring powerful toe-offs and maximum stability during sudden pace changes.
- Spikeless Versatility: The aggressive rubber lug design provides spike-like traction on turf and dirt, while remaining fully compatible with hard-packed tracks and gravel paths where metal pins can't be used.
