Nike Vomero Premium Reviews

Loves it: no stability issues and great on long pavement runs, comfortable down to 6:00/mile.

Over 300 miles across roughly six months, mostly runs of 4 to 7 miles. They like the squish and spring, found it quick on some middle-distance training runs, and call the wide platform mostly stable, with good durability despite rough conditions. Downsides: the tall stack makes a rolled ankle worse, the shoes began to squeak, long runs left their hips sore, and the price is a sore point, so they probably would not buy another pair.

8.5/10. It breaks Nike cushioning records, feels incredibly plush and is surprisingly stable for its height. Its limited use cases make the price hard to justify for many; walking and short runs won't reveal its support shortcomings.

A- overall: perhaps the plushest, bounciest trainer one tester has run in, and impressively stable for its height. Great for easy runs on tired legs. The high weight limits its use, and the high-coverage outsole should justify the $230.

One tester found it too heavy. The plushest in the line, surprisingly steady for 55 mm, and another tester gave it 12/15. A third tester dissents: one of the heaviest road shoes they've reviewed, easy runs felt hard, and it's a 'trend that went too far'.
