Product Information
Full details
The Nike Vomero 18 is designed for adult runners who prioritize maximum plushness and soft landings during daily training, recovery sessions, or long-distance mileage. Featuring Nike’s tallest stack of foam ever, these trainers provide exceptional shock absorption for heel-strikers; however, the high-stack design may feel less stable for runners who prefer a more grounded, responsive feel during speed work.

FAQs
Are the Nike Vomero 18 shoes suitable for wide feet?
The engineered mesh upper is designed to be accommodating and flexible, though those with very wide feet may find the internal sleeve construction quite snug.
Can I use these for speed training?
While capable, the Vomero 18 is optimized for comfort and distance. For high-speed training, a lighter, more responsive shoe with a lower stack height is typically recommended.
What is the primary difference between ZoomX and ReactX foam?
ZoomX is incredibly light and provides maximum energy return, while ReactX is engineered for durability and longevity, providing a stable foundation for the softer ZoomX.
How often should I replace the Vomero 18?
Most high-cushion running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and weight, or if you notice the foam no longer provides adequate impact protection.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the foam cushioning and the structural integrity of the upper. Spot clean with mild detergent and air dry only.
Do these shoes come with a removable insole?
Yes, the insole is removable, which allows you to insert custom orthotics if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing technique to a 'window lacing' pattern to relieve pressure on the midfoot area while keeping the heel locked.
Outsole collecting debris in pods
Use a soft-bristled brush or a toothpick to gently clear rocks or dirt from the grooves between the rubber pods after runs on gravel or uneven paths.
Upper material losing breathability
Ensure the interior is fully dry after each run. If moisture persists, sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoe overnight to absorb odors and moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your Nike Vomero 18, ensure you have the correct size for your gait; the full-sleeve construction provides a snug fit, so some runners prefer a half-size larger for long-distance swelling. If the shoes become wet, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with newspaper or a microfiber towel to absorb moisture. Avoid using heat sources like hair dryers or radiators, as extreme heat can degrade the integrity of the foam midsole. For cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe the mesh upper; avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can weaken the adhesives and synthetic materials.
