Maximum Cushioning for Road Runners
The Nike Vomero 18 is a road running shoe designed for maximum cushioning and comfort, released in February 2025.
Key Features and Design:
The Vomero 18 boasts the highest stack height in the Vomero franchise's history, providing unparalleled cushioning. This is achieved through a dual-density midsole combining ZoomX foam (for responsiveness) and ReactX foam (for stability and durability). The upper is made of engineered mesh for breathability and features plush linings for comfort. A rubber outsole provides traction, and the shoe's rocker geometry promotes a smooth heel-to-toe transition. The design incorporates feedback from women runners, aiming for a balance of comfort, support, and style. The shoe is available in youth sizes for the first time, featuring ReactX foam.
Target Audience and Use Cases:
The Vomero 18 is suitable for a wide range of runners, from beginners to experienced athletes. Its maximum cushioning makes it ideal for everyday runs, recovery runs, and longer distances.
Pricing and Availability:
The Nike Vomero 18 retails for approximately $150 USD and is available at Nike.com and select retailers. The shoe is available in various colorways for men, women, and children.
