Runners Unite!

[frgtn340]

I would just like to see what everyones favorite nike running shoe is and why! The vomero's are like Nike's Flagship shoe. What are your opinions?

 

[shoes604]

Pegasus. I like the 'full length air'.

 

[jeffgdula]

Vomero 4. End of thread.

 

[swerv1n]

My running shoes must have air......so i'ma say right now AM 2009 or my Nike Shox TL3

 

[t21d]

Sorry but AM2009- are made for running ERRANDS

My top 5 :
Adidas Tyranny circa 04
Mizuno Wave Renegade circa 05
New Balance 2001- built and weighs like a tank
Nike Equalon- fairly light and airy
Puma Tenos- a bit too big, otherwise comfortable out of the box.

The thread was about nike runners.

Sorry- Nike Equalon- light airy and affordable. In addtion, I do HAVE a pair of 09'ers. They're comfy but clunky.

I doubt you have a pair of 09s if you describe them as "clunky."

how do the Vomero compare with asics gel nimbus 10? That's what I am currently running on and looking to get a new pair...I love asics, but if theseNike's are just as good I may give them a try.

 

[thesenator2345]

If you're buying them to actually run it, Nike running shoes aren't an elite running shoe. Asics Gel-Kayano XV or the Mizuno Wave Creation X are theway to go. Nike doesn't make a running shoe that would even be in my Top 10.

Then you haven't tried any of their new stuff.

favorably. I have several nimbuses. I returned the 10s after one run. They simply don't fit my foot as well as they used to or as well asthe Vomero 4s. The vomero 4 is a bit cushier but just feels better all around to me. I rotate shoes when I run, but I generally run in lunar trainers, freeeverydays, vomero 4s, mizuno waver riders or asics nimbuses or kayanos (I used to run in kinseis but sold all 4 of my pairs).

I really gotta try those Vomero's... Jeff why are they better than AM 2009s again?

 

[gregodensbedpan]

Structure Triax series.

Not sayin' they are "better," just better for running. They were made for runners. They are more flexible, responsive andcushioned. They fit better on your foot too.

 

[jc619er]

Structure Triax definitely. Very supportive and very cushy. Love that line.

 

[frgtn340]

Hey jeffgdula, you you normally train with your frees and runlonger with your vomeros? My feet hurt after a while on the frees...I can do about 2 miles max. The vomeros for me are everyday

 

[frgtn340]

I personally like the am2009's...Great shoes if you have to stand around all day

Do both have more impact protection than Zoom RS's??

fixed.....

I forgot some people are slow.....i shoulda said i need my running shoes to have air.....AND LOOK GOOD and BE NIKES like the thread asks.
Vomeras might feel alittle better but i need my shoes to look good too. I dont need the most super supportive running shoe ever made when i run my AM 2009 - 95- 97 - Plus - Plus 360 - all do just fine for me. Maybe if u an olympic crosstrainer i could see goin all out on some Vomeros or whatever else is suited for ajogging junky. I'm a casual gym treadmill jogger occasionally outside

 

[seven654three]

I'd go with Vomero's as well, but im also intrigued by the Nike Lunar Glides. I also co-sign that AM 2009 arent exactly the best choice for a purerunning show. They are very comfy for everyday wear, thats about it.

I've never even tried the RSs on but I can't imagine either has less.

 

[krenz19]

Vomero's are probably one of the best cushioning shoes out right now

 

[jw air]

op nice avy

 

[sole investigator]

I'm currently running in the Lunaracers and the Pegasus 25 SE and I like them both, but am looking at possibly buying the Lunarglides or the AM 2009'sas well.
