Nike DNA N7
When asked to create artwork for the latest N7 collection, designer Chelysa “Chief” Owens-Cyr leaned into her belief that art is medicine. These special edition Dri-FIT basketball shorts showcase her contemporary take on Native and Indigenous art that celebrates the interconnectedness between culture and nature.
About the Designer
Designer Chelysa “Chief” Owens-Cyr, a member of the Fort Peck Assiniboine and Sioux tribes and the Pasqua First Nation, is a self-taught, contemporary artist. Inspired by her Indigenous culture and community, she uses art as her voice to tell their stories. “I believe through art we can keep our culture alive,” she says.
About the Design
The latest N7 collection celebrates Native and Indigenous culture and its interconnectedness to nature as a way to preserve and showcase traditions for generations to come. Each piece uses digital art forms to create a contemporary take on traditional Lakota beadwork designs and ledger art stories.
On-Court Comfort
With mesh on the outer face and smooth knit on the inner one, these lightweight-yet-durable shorts stand up to even the toughest rebound battles. Nike Dri-FIT technology moves sweat away from your skin for quicker evaporation, helping you stay dry and comfortable.
Off-Court Style
These 6" DNA shorts are designed for basketball, but don't let that be a limit on how you wear them. A waistband with drawstring pairs with trim at the hems for a vintage hoops look. They also offer plenty of storage to secure a roster spot in your off-court wardrobe.

How This Was Made
- The recycled polyester used in Nike products begins as recycled plastic bottles, which are cleaned, shredded into flakes and converted into pellets. From there, the pellets are spun into new, high-quality yarn used in our products, delivering peak performance with a lower impact on the environment.
- In addition to reducing waste, recycled polyester reduces carbon emissions by up to 30% compared to virgin polyester. Nike diverts an average of 1 billion plastic bottles annually from landfills and waterways.
