Solid shoe all around. Very satisfied, broke them in after second session and felt amazing on meet. Thinking on getting one more pair Baige/White color but they showing sold out.

Zoom it
A heel Air Zoom unit helps keep you supported and springy throughout your match.
Stick and cut
The herringbone traction pattern is made from our new rubber compound that's lighter than Vapors of the past. It allows you to decelerate, plant and back into position without feeling like you're rounding off your cuts.
Lighter load
We brought back the firm midfoot plastic piece seen on past Vapors to provide optimal stability and transitions when cutting from side to side. The supportive piece also allowed us to remove the rubber in the midfoot, which helps reduce the overall weight of the shoe.
Transfer the power
A firm foot frame wraps around the supportive midfoot plate and spans from heel to toe, giving you more of a secure feel. It helps give you the stability to transfer power during aggressive slides, cuts and pivots.
Lightweight upper
We reduced the weight of the engineered mesh while maintaining durability in high-wear zones by the toe.
More benefits
- The full midfoot fit band allows you to pull the laces tighter to enhance the fit and enable faster cuts.
- The midsole foam in between the plastic and rubber, which wasn't on the Vapor 11, helps keep you light on your feet.

Excellent return from Nike
DimitrisA906727373 - 08 Apr 2025
Great shoe, it fits really well and Nike seems to have found it's way again by going back to basis. What stops me from giving 5/5 starts is that although it offers an excellent fell and fits like a glove around your foot, I would have liked better support/fit around the ankle (the opening seems to need a bit more cushioning like the Air Max has to offer). Maybe bring back the laces v-shape from older models, it used to offer a bit of a tighter fit. Overall great shoe, I would highly recommend!
Offer the white options with the clay soles!

Finally getting back to what made the 9.5 great but it is beyond me why they offer the two predominantly white color-ways in hardcourt but not clay. I’ve never been required to wear white on hard courts but frequently am required to on clay. Is it absurd? Of course, but I don’t get to make the rules…
