If a modernized version of a shoe like the 2015 Free RN Flyknit 4.0 was re-introduced, we imagine it’s going to do very well. It’s not that people dislike flexible footwear rather, it has a lot to do with Nike botching the Nike Free assortment. Nike Free used to be a thing several years ago, but this sub-category has fallen out of favor. The high-volume midsole of the ZoomX Invincible Run Flyknit is made entirely of the ZoomX foam, thus making it the bounciest-soft running shoe we’ve wear-tested so far.

The Vomero 16 has been around for a while now, and it’s nearly identical to the Vomero 15. Usually, a ZoomX midsole builds up the expectation of a soft and bouncy ride, but the new Vomero has a somewhat firm ride due to the liberal use of a firmer EVA frame and updated outsole geometry.

It was not at all what one expected it to be. The Structure 24 is more of the same.Īnother Nike shoe got redesigned from the ground up – the Vomero 15 with its new Zoom X and Zoom Air midsole. Instead, it’s now a supportive neutral trainer with plenty of ride comfort for high-mileage runs. It ceased to be the traditional stability running shoe with a firm ride and medial post. The Structure 23 took an interesting turn. The Alpha was underwhelming to say the least, if our in-depth review is anything to go by. The notable exceptions would be the ZoomX Invincible Run and Alphafly Next% – which is a Vaporfly Next% with a Zoom Air bag.

The Nike Pegasus 38 Shield is a new addition.Īs far as the Nike running catalog is concerned, not much has changed during the last couple of years. This article has been updated with current models for February 2022.
