Max Cushioned Running Shoes(43)

Elevate your comfort in high-performance cushioned running shoes from Nike. Springy foam soles give you plenty of bounce, helping you to move easily and get more out of each mile. Plus, superior cushioning works to reduce impact on your joints, so you can train harder and for longer. For added responsiveness, look out for pairs of max-cushion running shoes with ReactX foam. This delivers an even bigger energy return than React foam, helping to keep you moving stride after stride. Heading out of the gym? Turn over our cushioned running shoes to find waffle outsoles for durable traction on the roads—designed to put you in control.

We build our maximum cushioned running shoes from lightweight materials, so there's nothing holding you back from pushing through your goals. Feather-light foam and Flyknit uppers have a barely-there feel, while working hard to boost your performance. In wet weather, opt for a pair with a water-resistant membrane to keep you dry. Getting ready for a warm-weather workout? Cushioned running trainers with mesh vents provide breathability, so you stay comfortable right up to the finish line. For extra comfort, padded collars and tongues hug your ankles and hold your shoes in place.

Join us on our greatest race yet. Nike's Move to Zero is our journey towards a zero-carbon and zero-waste future. To get involved, choose running shoes with maximum cushioning with the Sustainable Materials tag. It means we've made the shoes with at least 20% recycled content. Think durable polyester spun from old plastic bottles, carpets and fishing nets diverted from landfill. That's just one of the ways we're helping to protect the future of sport.
