NegativeThe update doesn't improve the experience: heavy and sluggish even for easy runs, though it protects the legs well and looks good, maybe for the odd 5K or lifestyle wear. For a cushioned shoe for extensive use there are better options, and within Nike's range he much prefers the Vomero 17.

NegativeMore comfortable than v3, with a softer, stretchy Flyknit upper, good lockdown, better durability and stability. But it gained an ounce and feels heavy, and the ReactX lacks energy return. Average with no major flaws, at $160 he can't recommend it over rivals like the MaxRoad 6.
