Although the average sneakerhead is rocking the Vomero series in a more lifestyle-oriented casual setting, specifically with the Vomero 5, Nike continues to innovate on the performance running series. The Vomero franchise has long been synonymous with plush, supportive rides, and the latest iteration, the Vomero 18, cements its reputation as a go-to option for daily runs, recovery sessions, and long-distance training. The Vomero 18 debuts as a centerpiece in Nike’s simplified and streamlined approach to running footwear, designed with insights from women runners but engineered to suit all athletes.
The Nike Vomero 18 combines cutting-edge technology with modern aesthetics to deliver the ultimate running experience. The shoe features a dual-cushion system of ZoomX foam and ReactX in the heel and forefoot. It offers unparalleled comfort and energy return with its increased 46mm stack height — the tallest ever in the Vomero line. The durable rubber outsole ensures reliable traction across all surfaces, while the rocker geometry provides a smooth heel-to-toe transition. The upper’s stretchy engineered mesh enhances breathability, allowing for a lightweight, adaptive fit. The lead colorway, Atmosphere Pink, symbolizes the joy of running, with its vibrant hues and sleek design appealing to both style and function.
“We heard from runners that when they think of maximum cushioning, they envision a soft, plush experience that alleviates feeling the impact of the ground underfoot. We obsessed the details to give the running community that sensation with best-in-class design and technology,” says Ashley Campbell, Running Footwear Product Line Manager. “That ethos is apparent throughout the Vomero 18, a shoe purpose-built to give every runner — from the everyday to the elite — the ultra-comfortable ride that is both supportive and easy on the body, and equips runners to achieve their goals.”
The Nike Vomero 18 will release February 27, 2025, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in unisex sizing, retail is $150. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
