Nike Vomero 18

Nike Vomero 18 review: what runners say

Fit

True to size. Upper roomier than other recent Nike models; suits wide or high-volume feet.

Feel

Deep, plush cushioning — soft without going mushy. The dual ZoomX/ReactX stack delivers surprising stability for the stack height, but sacrifices responsiveness and pop compared to its predecessor.

Durability

Soft rubber outsole wears quickly: lateral heel nubs already smoothed out by 64 miles. Less rubber coverage than the Vomero 17 outsole unit.

Best for

Recovery runs and easy days for heavier runners or those seeking maximum protection. Not suited for sustained paces, speed work, or mixed sessions.

Weak points

High weight (11.5 oz men's US 9) that hurts maneuverability at faster paces. 10 mm drop flagged as excessive by multiple reviewers; outsole deteriorates quickly.
