Nike Vomero 18 SE

These shoes have a great cushion. As a runner recovering from a knee injury, these have given me the support I need getting back to road running. The stack height does not feel as high as it is- as someone who has tried a competitor with a chunky sole (you know the one), these are far superior and do not give me the awkward blisters that other brands gave. They run true to size. My only criticism is that I don’t love the spacing of the laces- but they’re just fine.

Last summer I challenged myself to run exponentially more miles for 2 months which led to the partial dislocation of my kneecap. My orthopedic doctor directed me to PT & to continue running as I could. I dialed down a lot while the pain is tolerable it is very noticeable after running. I have been using the Infinity Reacts for about 2 years. I saw the good reviews for the Vomero and thought I would treat myself - with the best interest in my knee pain of course ;) The Vomero did not disappoint whatsoever! Completely surpassed my expectations. I completed my first “long run” (5 miles) since last summer and had absolutely no pain at all. I am ecstatic to have found a perfect runner for me. The amethyst color is super stunning as well. The sizing was perfect. While the Reacts fit a little more on the snug side, the Vomeros were much more true to size.
