The commercial opens to show many legs running barefoot in the surf of the ocean while music plays. The camera rises to show that the legs belong to a bunch of running men with white polo shirts on. The camera shoots from a higher vantage point to show a group of men running along the coast. The run past usually places items such as a man hole cover, a free standing fire escape and a man reading on a park bench. A bus rushes by and the scene changes to a busy dirty city street. Close up on the runner’s red Nike shoes. Then the words “Run Barefoot. Nike.com.”
