Vomero 5 in Time for Summer 2025Release Although launched in 2011 as one of Nike Running's marquee products it's now become one of the most popular lifestyle models the Cushlon-cushioned sneaker has taken on a healthy mix of original finishes and special edition makeups A-COLD-WALL* is still responsible for the model's most avant-garde update but the design has also been reworked enough by the Swoosh's inline team to distance it from its performance origins Many styles have featured "Metallic Silver' accents as a nod to the style's original run (pun intended) Although the impending release consists of shimmering metallic tones, its titular hue is a punchy "Sundial" that animates breathable mesh bases. Its presentation next to the aforementioned silver and "Black" components seemingly form part of a larger Batman-reminiscent collection given a recent Shox TL in a similar "Black/Varsity Maize" look the color trifecta readies the former runner for summer delivering an ensemble that's bold enough to enable even the most conservative dressers to take some risks throughout the upcoming season Enjoy official photos of the "Sundial"-accented Vomero 5 below.

Read our Cookie Policy We independently review everything we recommend $150 because that would also mean I’d have to give up my short and storied career as a running shoe reviewer The void in my absence would be unbearable to all two dozen of you even if that meaning has changed quite a bit over the past decade I’m the counterbalance to Meg’s love of max cushion here at Believe in the Run I must admit that I’ve relented when it comes to the max cushion movement What began as a soft mess has now become a bit of relief for these road weary legs But max cushion is here to say for the foreseeable future This is our second review of a shoe within the new Nike running alignment (we already reviewed the Pegasus Plus and the Pegasus Premium is coming soon) a brief overview of the updates to the Vomero 18 The Nike Vomero 18 holds true to its purpose as a max cushion shoe going above and beyond past versions with a 46 mm of stack height in the heel and 36 mm in the forefoot the midsole is a two-layer composite of Nike foams– a thin top layer of the bouncy PEBA-style ZoomX found in models like the Invincible and Vaporfly the same foam found in shoes like the Pegasus 41 and InfinityRN 4 Nike wants you to think the whole thing is ZoomX so it somewhat misleadingly prints the word ZoomX on the bulbous heel section which is– in reality– ReactX foam pretty much every other brand does this as well Part of that is the large volume of cushion part of that is the all-around foot comfort and padding found within the engineered mesh upper and its tongue Note the top layer of ZoomX and bottom layer of ReactX MEAGHAN: Nike announced the launch of the Vomero 18 along with a completely new road running shoe structure There are now three categories of cushioning and each offers a different purpose The Pegasus line provides responsive cushioning Each category comes with an “icon” model (i.e the Vomero 18) and a “plus” and “premium” option within their categories The idea is meant to simplify the lineups and create a more “intuitive” way to select a running shoe but it will be interesting to see where these lines go I was happy to hear the latest iteration is the “most cushioned Vomero yet.”  The update comes with 6mm more foam underfoot (now 46mm in the heel) a top layer of ZoomX and bottom layer of ReactX This is the first time we’ve seen ReactX foam in the Vomero family reduces the carbon footprint by 43% and increases energy return by 13% The outsole is designed with a high abrasion rubber more flex grooves throughout and the iconic waffle lug pattern for plenty of durability and traction the upper comes with a new engineered mesh and more padding through the collar and heel but let’s find out how it felt out on the roads THOMAS: I’ve had my ups and downs with the Vomero The trainer has tried to do a lot of things over the years and Nike has clarified Vomero’s role in the running lineup and the Vomero Premium will be Nike’s most cushioned and comfort-focused lineup It appears that Nike is off to a good start and the ZoomX top with a Cushlon 3.0 bottom had us holding our breath thinking it could be the return of the Nike Turbo I’ll skip that and the part about walking around so I didn’t have a hard reference point or really many expectations for this shoe I was also one of the few people to actually enjoy the InfinityRN 4 but has honestly been stale for at least the last three years the Alphafly Lite) had me rooting for Nike again and actually excited for what’s coming down the line I’ve put close to 30 miles on that shoe and it’s for sure the most exciting Nike shoe in years outside of its race-day staples I try not to weigh shoes or even look at the weight of shoes before a review but I did come into the Vomero knowing it weighed a lot There are not a small number of adequate trail shoes that weigh as much as the Vomero I thought this shoe would be a Ben Folds brick but I was pleasantly surprised that it was more of a comfort cruise through steady seas it runs much lighter than its suggested weight which is an acceptable trade-off for the loads of luxury surrounding the foot from top to bottom The engineered mesh upper features a half booty from the toe to the midfoot and a tongue that’s thicker than a concrete milkshake The Vomero foregoes traditional eyelets for Nike’s loop-style lace system with a secure attachment point at the bottom A faux microsuede heel counter gives a bit of extra support it offers just the right amount of rebound to avoid feeling like a marshmallow Which is kind of the problem I always had with the Invincible– it was too unstable and the shallow heel collar always gave me heel slip and the React X is stable enough to balance out the top layer of ZoomX It’s a surprisingly stable shoe for how much stack height it comes with I didn’t have any issues with the 10 mm drop but I know plenty of people would like to see that taken down to at least 8 mm With the high stack and soft combination of foams otherwise you may have some trouble getting up to the toes MEAGHAN: I typically like the aesthetics of Nike shoes and the extra padding around the collar and tongue adds to the overall comfort and plush feeling I found the shoes fit true to size with some decent room in the toebox (not super typical for Nike shoes) My favorite update to this shoe was the increased stack and addition of ReactX foam it’s great the foam reduces carbon footprint and all that jazz but I’m just happy with how it feels out on the roads It’s soft and comfortable but also comes with some nice bounce I think the rockered geometry also helps with the smooth transition and turnover The added stack was especially nice in the forefoot where I felt the previous version could bottom out a little The Vomero 18 felt cushioned throughout and the miles just seemed to click by I was expecting all that rubber on the outsole to make the shoes feel somewhat blocky The added flex grooves allowed the shoes to bend more naturally with my stride I still feel like Nike trainers are designed with more structure and support than other typical trainers While we see a lot of similar trends in uppers adding generously padded tongues and collars Comfort is well thought out in the Vomero 18 upper It’s no easy task to get an upper that works on both Meg’s and my feet low-volume foot felt cozy without having to crank the laces down There wasn’t even any puckering over the vamp Running on the ZoomX ReactX combo is smooth and well-cushioned without feeling dead but it’s plush and surprisingly stable This midsole is made for cruising comfortably The word that comes to mind is “flow.” It is a shoe you can run mindlessly in The outsole is hardy but doesn’t interfere with the smooth underfoot feeling and the thicker rubber will help with durability the weight could probably be trimmed up a little bit but I sense a trend within Nike that weight will not be a focus within the Structure/Vomero/Pegasus lines What we’ve seen so far gives us a glimpse into what we’ll see in the near future I’m really trying to figure out if Nike’s focus is on creating the best running shoes or creating the best lifestyle shoes that you can run in but a slippery slope once you start skating on it The full-length Zoom Air unit in the Pegasus premium (which admittedly looks cool as hell but also makes the shoe a beast) the mediocre attempt at replicating the Peg Turbo with the Pegasus Plus and now the wildly cushioned and built-up Vomero 18 I’m not saying it’s necessarily a bad thing especially if they keep up with the fantastic performance line And that’s kind of where the Vomero 18 fits in but it’s also probably your mom’s favorite walking shoe but I’ll lean towards running shoe because I legitimately have enjoyed all my runs in the shoe Last couple things: the tongue is absurdly thick The whole thing is going to be quite warm come summer but there are plenty of sections of exposed midsole MEAGHAN: My main complaint about the last iteration of this shoe was the weight it’s a little on the heavier side at 8.65 oz (246 grams) but it’s distributed well throughout the shoe so it really didn’t bother me out on the roads I also think we’re just getting used to shoes being heavier with all the stack THOMAS: Robbe dips into the Peg Premium and styling but I’ll save that for the Peg Premium review I’ll stay on the Vomero 18 even though I am excited to discuss the Vomero Plus and Premium we have race-day shoes that get down to insane weights without sacrificing cushioning daily trainers have tossed out weight concerns and focused on comfort I can’t recall the number of daily trainers over 11 oz./312 g  we have reviewed in the past four years Some actually work if the weight is distributed well and the foam is amazing Although the Vomero 18 weighs 11.7 oz./332 g the shoe still works and achieves the intended result I can’t help but wonder what this shoe would be like if you could find a way to knock some weight off I wouldn’t recommend the Vomero 18 for all your training It is really good at cushioning and comfort but isn’t a versatile training solution You will want another shoe for your tempo days ROBBE: The Vomero 18 is a max cushion winner for me And as someone who doesn’t love max cushion it’s doing a pretty good job of catfishing me I definitely wouldn’t mind grabbing this shoe again and again for more long runs or easy days but if you’re looking for a ton of comfort in a Nike running shoe at a very fair price point MEAGHAN: It’s nice to see Nike showing up strong in the daily trainer world For a while it seemed like we got amazing race shoes… and that was it The Nike Vomero 18 is definitely my favorite version of the shoe yet and I’m excited to see what else is coming in this new category (spoiler alert: we saw the Vomero Plus and Premium versions at The Running Event if you’re looking for a structured but bouncy daily trainer You nailed the race shoes but left us wanting more in the training department the last three shoes I’ve reviewed have all been exceptional The Pegasus Premium is in a class of its own and the Vomero 18 nails cushion and comfort we got a sneak peek at the future of Nike running You can pick up the Nike Vomero 18 for $150 on February 27 I’m not that excited about the 18 reading the review Says this isn’t available till the end of February 2025 but it’s currently 5th in your daily trainer rankings I get you’ve reviewed it but how is this a “top ranked trainers right now” when I can’t get a pair for over two months BITD it was mileage in heavier trainers and speed and race in flats I appreciate that the industry has a lot of goldilocks shoes out there but having a nice plush daily trainer like the new Vomero 18 is a nice option the $150 price shoe with ZoomX and ReactX compared to other models with similar midsole in nike lineups are all $20+ more This is a great value despite the

But even though the colourways are super low-key the hype surrounding this retro silhouette still rumbles on But this Zoom Vomero 5 isn't just about its incredible looks, either. Because when this model first debuted back in 2011, it was actually a really good running shoe designed for really good runners That's why it comes equipped with a Cushlon foam midsole that's infused with Zoom tech for max comfort As you might've already expected, the Nike Zoom Vomero 5 ‘Light Bone’ is set to drop sometime this summer. It'll be available at Nike, the Snkrs app, and select stockists, and will set you back £145 a pop. In 2025, Nike is completely revamping its running lineup into three pillars The Nike Vomero 18 is the Icon entry in Nike’s max cushion/cushioned comfort pillar Nike will release the Vomero Plus and Vomero Premium models (which I’ve seen and am excited about) to create a full suite of max cushion shoes To get a feel for how the line will eventually look, we can review what Nike did with the Pegasus pillar. Nike built out its responsive cushioning/responsive ride pillar with the Nike Pegasus 41, Nike Pegasus Plus, and the upcoming Nike Pegasus Premium The way the shoes and their use cases are laid out makes sense but the individual performance of each model within the pillar varied Nike will build out a Structure/supportive cushioning/stable support pillar in 2025 as well, but all we’ve seen so far from that pillar is the Nike Structure 25 If Nike can add some fun back to the support category it will be a nice change of pace for those who want added stability in their running shoes Those seeking support are often given short shrift in terms of aesthetics and attention Will the Icon entry for the Vomero pillar fare better than the Icon entry for the Pegasus pillar (which received middling reviews) At WearTesters, we’ve been Vomero fans for a while, and last year’s Vomero 17 was Nike’s best daily trainer So we certainly hope Nike gets this one right The Nike Vomero 18 ushers in some big changes to the model by replacing the Vomero 17’s ZoomX and Cushlon 3.0 midsole with a ZoomX and ReactX midsole The ZoomX is a thin layer on top of a big hunk of ReactX because the total stack height in the heel is 46mm with 36mm in the forefoot for a 10mm drop (the same drop as in the previous Vomero) That’s a 6mm increase from last year and the largest stack height ever for a Vomero model Nike’s max cushion pillar is off to a great start The Vomero 18’s weight increases by 19% for both men and women over the Vomero 17 Nike tweaked the rocker geometry of the midsole to help the Vomero 18 feel more balanced and smooth at its higher weight The Nike Vomero 18’s turnover is really good for a max cushion no one will call the Vomero 18 clompy or bulky That’s one of the keys to creating a well-loved max cushion shoe But there is a big caveat about that underfoot feel. The massive amount of ReactX made the midsole feel more like the Nike InfinityRN 4 than the Vomero 17 but it feels more like the InfinityRN 4 with a soft top layer of ZoomX underfoot – well without the everpresent arch from the InfinityRN 4 The InfinityRN 4 was a very good shoe that was only polarizing because of the aforementioned arch so it makes sense to sprinkle some of its good parts into other models but it means that the Vomero 18 doesn’t feel as much like a Vomero as it does a frankensteined hybrid For those who haven’t tried the InfinityRN 4 the gist is this: while the cushion is there and works well it doesn’t feel as squishy or bouncy as the Vomero 17 Below that chunky midsole is a reworked outsole which has thick waffle-patterned rubber in all the potential high-wear areas and tries to save some weight with a less dense boxy pattern at the middle of the forefoot It’s a pattern that won’t be as durable as the previous model (all rubber everywhere) but will be durable enough for the typical 300-500 mile running shoe lifespan Though the engineered mesh upper and lacing are different from the Vomero 17 Nike did add a heel pull tab that is helpful in putting on and removing the shoe The Nike Vomero 18 fits true-to-size lengthwise but isn’t particularly accommodating for wide footers If the Vomero 18 gets a wide version like the Vomero 17 I’d recommend most wide footers opt for the wide version in order to be completely comfortable efficient ride where the extra cushion shined enough to make the weight increase a non-issue The Vomero 18 is the most effective at easy or recovery running paces with some extra effort on the wearer’s part it can go uptempo for short periods of time This is a change from previous Vomero models as Nike has doubled down on the cushion aspect at the expense of the speed aspect (leaving the latter to the Pegasus pillar) The Nike Vomero 18 also has enough cushion to be a great option on long runs and can even handle all the planned marathon training long runs of 20+ miles The outsole gripped multiple surfaces and did well on looser surfaces The waffle pattern continues to deliver fantastic results The majority of shoes that fill the exact same use case as the Vomero 18 are found at the $160 price point so we get the rare instance where the Nike model is priced lower than most of its competitors and long training runs are its sweet spot and where its smooth turnover shines Fans of  the Vomero and InfinityRN series alike should give this new shoe a shot It’s pretty close to the best of both worlds; and though it might not be able to go as fast as it used to it aligns well with Nike’s new 3-pronged (pillared?) [Editor’s Note: works for me] approach to running 6’6″ 195lbs): Runs daily with a once a week rest day Runs a lot of miles due to testing needs and a growing affinity for long-distance races While Nike did provide a pair of the Nike Vomero 18 to facilitate this review the company had no involvement in this review $150 for sneakers and you complain being charged $11 for a carton of eggs All shoes and gear reviewed on WearTesters havebeen tested using our rigorous methodology. WearTesters is reader-supported If you buy products using links on our site Be one of the first to try our new activity feed the Vomero 18 is Nike’s most cushioned shoe ever—but does it make a difference today’s running shoes are getting thicker and more cushioned brands can now stack more foam underfoot without sacrificing performance The previous stack ceiling used to look more like 30-40 mm but as the new 46 mm Nike Vomero 18 proves adding more foam meant creating a less stable platform but modern engineering has tackled that issue head-on such as wide underfoot platforms with flared soles at the base helps stabilize the foam and enables taller stack heights to feel more secure And if there’s a shoe that typifies this shift Nike’s latest lineup revision uses three categories: the “Vomero silo” for maximum cushioning; the Pegasus line for everyday running; and the Structure family as the go-to supportive option Within each category are three models: a base or icon model The premium and plus will utilize more advanced technologies such as additional ZoomX foam or Air Units Two current shoes in the cushioned category—the Infinity Run and Invincible—will eventually be phased out Let’s dig into the Vomero 18 to see how Nike’s max cushioning family actually performs Weight: 11.5 oz (men’s 10) / 9.2 oz (women’s 8) Men’s $150 at Running Warehouse Women’s $150 at Running Warehouse I’m aware that I subconsciously form preconceived expectations about how the shoe will perform when I received the Vomero 18 in late November This gave me a great opportunity to take my first run with a completely open mind I initially felt that the comfort level was off the charts The Vomero 18 is by far the most comfortable iteration I’ve tested in Nike’s Vomero line Everything about the shoe is plush and luxurious especially the heavily padded engineered-mesh upper the Vomero 18 instantly felt familiar—like I’d been running in it for months breaking in a new running shoe feels like adjusting to driving a car that’s not your own I naturally settled into my preferred cadence without having to think about it I assumed it was around the same height as its predecessor When I later got the specs from the Nike rep I was dumbfounded to find out the Vomero 18 had a whopping 46 mm of foam under the heel making it Nike’s thickest cushioned shoe ever I was doubly shocked at how stable the shoe felt Although brands are getting better at making taller-stacked shoes less tippy The Vomero 18 didn’t feel particularly high at all compared to other shoes of similar height I’ve tested A few design elements contribute to the Vomero 18’s more grounded feeling the shoe has a wider base platform than previous Vomero models the dual-density midsole combines foam and a new version of React X that Nike claims has 13 percent more energy return React X is meant to provide structure and support on the bottom more energetic ZoomX—found in Nike’s Alphafly and Vaporfly lines—is layered on top for a bouncier ride The one downside to having this much cushioning (and foams) is weight The Vomero 18 weighs 11.4 ounces for men and 9.2 ounces for women making it among the heaviest shoes of this type it’s certainly not a shoe made for uptempo running I found the Vomero 18 bulky and cumbersome to carry through the stride and I could certainly feel its weight underfoot easy runs and everyday mileage when comfort and a plush ride are a priority my relationship with the Vomero has improved over the years I’ve found each incremental change inched the shoe towards my plusher preference After running in the Vomero 18 over several distances at a variety of paces I’ve found it to be one of the best training shoes from Nike in some time I’ve found Nike’s everyday trainers to be a bit underwhelming compared to the competition in recent years and the Vomero 18 is a step in the right direction While Nike has concentrated on dominating the carbon fiber racing shoe market with their flagship Alphafly and Vaporfly racing models and Brooks have stepped in to capture a significant share of the everyday comfort trainer market it’s clear that Nike is making a change by revamping their trainer roundup Nike has made a bold commitment with the redesigned Vomero 18—outside those who prefer a minimalist feeling I’d recommend this for every type of runner As long as you don’t need to pick up the pace the Vomero 18 delivers everything I’d want in a maximum cushioned shoe Asics Superblast 2, Brooks Glycerin Max Notes: Nike has officially released the Zoom Vomero 5 in a creamy “Alabaster” colorway is crafted with a white mesh base and hairy suede overlays in a complementing off-white hue Hints of Black land on the lining and the TPU caging by the panel and heel while branding lands on the leather panel swoosh Bill Bowerman-stamped insoles and stamped mini heel swoosh The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 the women’s Nike Zoom Vomero 5 “Blue Tint,” adds fresh appeal This version showcases a refreshing “Blue Tint” hue throughout the upper and midsole also dressed in “Blue Tint,” delivers superior comfort for all-day wear Whether you’re running errands or working out this sneaker provides the support you need This subtle detail enhances the light blue color The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 “Blue Tint” will release on March 31, 2025.
