In August 2025, Nike gave us a first look at their new International Running Pack. The collection fuses the Swoosh’s rich running heritage with modern, next-level performance tech. Dropping just ahead of the 2025 Tokyo athletics championships, the pack celebrates Nike’s strong ties to the Japanese running scene.
Two of the four kicks are already live: the Vaporfly 4 ‘Pre Montreal’ and the Pegasus 41 SE ‘Waffle Racer’, both available now through Nike. If you’re after a pair, hit the links above.

Nike’s new International Running Pack brings four iconic silhouettes back with a modern twist. The Swoosh proves once again that heritage and innovation can coexist, reworking classic ’70s runners for today’s performance.
The pack includes the Vaporfly 4, tipping its hat to Steve Prefontaine’s Pre Montreal spike, the Alphafly 3 inspired by the OG Sting flat, the Pegasus 41 giving a nod to the legendary Waffle Racer, and the Vomero 18, a fresh take on the LD-1000 long-distance trainer.
And that’s not all! The pack also comes with a matching apparel collection, giving classic Nike Running styles a Japanese twist. It’s a lineup that celebrates both the brand’s heritage and modern innovation.
The Nike International Running Pack will make its official debut at the UNION RUNNING DEPT. BY NIKE in Tokyo on 30 August 2025. A global release will follow on 10 September via Nike and select retailers. As mentioned, the Vaporfly 4 ‘Pre Montreal’ and the Pegasus 41 SE ‘Waffle Racer’ are already available.
