The gorpcore movement has been one of the defining trends of the past few years, with more and more consumers latching onto sneakers that are both functional and street-worthy. In aiming to compete with brands like Salomon in that department, Nike is set to debut an all-new model called the Ava Rover. A collaboration with South Korea’s Hyein Seo is already in development, as are several inline options releasing Fall 2025.
Starting underfoot, the Ava Rover features a rugged ReactX sole unit consisting of molded, textured sidewalls and a rectangular tread pattern. Pixelated TPU material makes up the mudguard section, while a lightweight upper takes after Nike Running/ACG models (namely the React Element). As a whole, the model gives off a certain Nike ISPA/Yeezy 380 sort of vibe.
On top of the Hyein Seo Ava Rover, as many as three inline colorways are expected to roll out during the Fall 2025 shopping season. Two of the three options take on split color blocking, with the midsole and mudguard differing from the upper portion. One comes in “Black/Anthracite/Sequoia/Muslin,” while the other comes in “Black/Blue Sage/Grey Sage.” The third member of this initial batch stealthens up in “Black/Anthracite,” checking of an essential colorway for any new model.
The Nike Ava Rover retails for $140 and is set to debut during the Fall 2025 shopping window, meaning between July-September. The “Black/Anthracite/Sequoia/Muslin” colorway already has a confirmed release date of July 25th, suggesting the other two will likely follow soon after. See official retailer images of all three Ava Rover colorways below if you’re moved to cop a pair.
