Do I need to be an athlete?

No. Nike selects a wide range of testers — casual walkers, students, parents, and professionals all qualify.

Do I have to buy anything first?

What Is the Nike Product Testing Program?

This is the Nike Product Testing Program. Athletes, students, gym-goers, runners, and even people who simply walk a lot or love comfort have participated. Nike wants to understand how products perform in everyday life — not just on professional athletes.

Why Does Nike Give Products for Free?

Before releasing new shoes or clothing, Nike needs real-world performance insights:

  • ✨ Comfort during daily use
  • 🔥 Durability in different conditions
  • 🏃 How it performs in sports, exercise, or casual movement
  • 📦 Whether materials and fit meet real expectations

Your job is simple: use the product as instructed and then provide honest feedback.

Who Can Apply?

You don’t have to be a professional athlete. Nike selects a wide range of testers:

  • ✓ Active people
  • ✓ Casual walkers
  • ✓ Students
  • ✓ Parents and professionals
