Vomero Plus: The best Max Cushion Trainer on the Market.

FutureOldHead · Jun 6, 2026

4/5

Overall

Amazing step in feel. Cushioning hasn't lost its bounce after a 150ish miles ran. My go to shoe for all doubles, recovery runs, and long runs. Amazing for any time your legs are feeling a little beat. II have run faster efforts in it but would not choose it for any workouts. Massive improvement on the stability issues found in the Invincible shoe line.

Overall

Very comfortable and cushioned. Having been a Nike shoe tester since 1976 and putting on the first pair of Waffle Trainers (blue/yellow) and now a Vomero Plus, we have come a long way!! We have also come from $29.95 to $180.00, that hurts!! But it is a great shoe!!
