I have always swayed from Nike as I use to get bad blisters from them, tried the Vomero 18 as I was on the market for something reasonable priced, I’ve run a total of 230km in the Vomero and had 0 blisters, I’ve run easy, tempo and long in the ranges of 5 - 30k in these trainers and they have been my favourite trainer to date, the only fault I have found with these is that on a sunny day they can get quite hot which some people may not like.

"Vomero" Translated
MegaSpent - 18 Jul 2025
I'm guessing that "Vomero" translates to "springy foot pillow" because that's how they felt the first time I wore them. I've worn the Phantom Flyknits for years, and they're still a fantastic shoe (I have eight pairs that I now wear as daily shoes), but at 64 years old and in excess of 60,000 miles of running, I need as much cushion as possible. Thanks, Nike!

I wanted it to be love but...it's not. I am a big fan of Nike shoes and the Vomero line in particular. The Vomero 17s were perfection (I had multiple pairs) - responsive, the right amount of cushion, and a roomy toe box. I was excited to give the Vomero 18. For me, the 18s have too much cushion for my liking to the point that they feel clunky, the responsiveness is lacking, and the toe box is far too narrow. I didn't give up on Nike here. I bought both the Pegasus 41s and the Pegasus Plus and while they both felt better on my foot, I felt there was too little cushion in the forefoot for everyday running for me, but they did feel responsive :) I am now back to the drawing board and testing out other brands in hopes I find something like the previous iterations of the Vomeros.
