@@SagasuRunning As someone who really didn’t like the IR 3, I actually quite like this as an iteration. I know many won’t feel this way, but I think Nike’s running lineup is stacked enough that there doesn’t necessarily need to be a dedicated place for this shoe in it. I’d say it’s a great commuting/casual running shoe and that’s alright

I would agree. The Nike running lineup doesn’t need the Infinity anymore. So making it a fitness shoe that can transition someone into the Nike running line makes sense. The connection I pointed out the the WellCollective is a clear strategy. I also don’t like the IR3 upper for running, it was fine for casual wear. But the IR 1-3 midsole is something I have close to two thousand miles into over the 3 generations. I spent ALOT of time in that shoe over the years.

Got mine the other day (a retailer jumped the gun I think). Did a slow 10k in them yesterday and at least i can run in this shoe , something I couldn't do with the IR , IR2 and IR3 versions , likely due due to the bulkiness of the React in those versions. ReactX is so much softer. Its heavy in hand for sure , but I didn't notice it so much on foot. Lets see how it goes. I'm waiting for the Vomero 17 also.... Interestingly I'm neither a heel striker or a slow/ beginner runner, I am more a forefoot/midfoot striker. I cannot run in the Invincible series , even the 3. The extremely wide flares on the forefoot lead to this.
@SagasuRunning
Жыл бұрын
Interesting. You didn’t find the ReactX too soft when landing in the forefoot? I was getting a massive pancaking of the shoe there due to how flexible the forefoot it (to help the runner though the heel to toe rocker). It seems we are opposite. I got on very will with the IR1-3. Never had an issue with forefoot running in them… I have to admit. The IR4 seriously tempered my expectations on the Vomero 17. I’m still going to cover it… but have low expectations now. Hopefully it exceeds them. I am very intrigued by ReactX though. I look forward to it in more sure so we can actually see how it performs.

353g in a US 10. Wow! Welcome to my world of daily trainer weights - but in a UK 13/US 14 :) This is going to be on the way to 500g for me! My "record" in a running shoe is almost 450g in the adidas SolarGlide 4 GTX which was so bad I ran a mile in it and had to run back to change shoes. That's not really one am looking to break :) I did briefly try the 1st version of his shoe as was half price but still felt wasted my money but at least it wasn't this heavy just really wide for my narrow feet. This one seems both wide and heavy. Kind of makes the Boston 12 seem "light" and that is 340g for me. I also think this shoe line has got rather forgotten. Didn't they initially boast that runners got injured far less in this than anything else or something like that. That never made a lot of sense. Seemingly nor does this as a "proper" running shoe - well for us who do not obviously heel strike. I did think that it was going to be a bit softer but that's no good if they are sort of as heavy as hiking boots and seemingly with rubber to match. Agree though could be good for heel strikers for easy runs and maybe more casual runners.

It’s about the same when you compare them. With compression molding you have the pre-production of manufacturing the blanks, which you don’t with injection molding. However injection molding can require more tooling post molding and the QC process is more involved with softer materials. Actual mold production and lifespan differs between the two as well. Many other factors also contribute to cost. I’m glad my content is interesting! 🙌🏻

Vomero 16 is 376g for me in a US 14. Peg 40 371g and Peg 39 about 355g. How does that compare in a US 12? My guess about 30g lighter. For a daily trainer none of these felt heavy per se but equally hardy Endorphin Speed or Peg Turbo racer/trainer type shoes but then again never billed as such. I did find it a bit odd that whilst the Peg 40 and Peg 39 are very similar a upper "upgrade" added 16g. With this shoe being way heavier, I agree with SagasuRunning that a much lighter Vomero 17 over 16 is very unlikely. Hope it turns out better than this new one seems to be though!

The only way you ever see this manifest on the consumer side is some type of product matrix comparing one product to another. Nike haven’t done one of those for running in many years. Even then they never want to say a specific user for a product like a running shoe as they don’t want to pigeon hole it to that one market.

@AnDre-fj5lb The Infinity 3 is a great shoe. I literally have close to 3000 miles in the Infinity series, most of that in the 1, a big chunk in the 2 and a little in the 3 (I didn’t like the upper for running, but the midsole/outsole was still very good). I’m not slamming the Infinity series here. Even with the 4, while I don’t think it is a very good dedicated running shoe (a step backwards from the Infinity 1-3)… it’s an outstanding fitness shoe that you can run in (not just jog in) the will protect and help newer runners grow in confidence and ability. A bridge form the Well Collective to Nike Running… as I explained in the video I can see the consumer journey from Motiva to a infinity 4 to Zoom Fly 5 or Invincible 3…. It makes total sense and is very clearly executed.

@@SagasuRunning ok now I get the point, so you literally prefer 1-3 infinitys. you think the new nike running line looks more fancy, but they are less functional?

I thinks the Infinity 4 is a all together different shoe for a different user than the 1-3 was. The first half of this review I come at it as someone expect more of the Infinity 1-3… but then I switch and try to explain why I think there has been such a change. I think Nike has been nailing their updates this year. The Vaporfly e, Invincible 3 and Peg 40 are all outstanding updates and considerably better than their predecessors. But the Infinity 4 is a different shoe for different users now… and that’s ok.

I don’t live in the US. I’m in Taiwan and this shoe is available in most Nike retail locations. This colorway is 1 of the 3-4 launch colorways.

It’s considerably heavier… especially on foot. The I3 runs much lighter/smaller than it is. This one does not.
