Nike Men's Air Zoom Structure 22 Running Shoes

Product Information

The Dynamic support of the sole unit which i felt more closer to the heel felt unbalanced. This was mostly due to the height of the heel. That is not going to happen in these Zooms. Nike built in plenty of room for those toes to spread out. It gives supreme comfort during the workout, and you’ll feel great after you're done. When you have a classic like the Structure which has been around for 22 versions, it would be silly to just kill off the name and forget it ever existed. There is no unnecessary padding, and the upper has a tailored feel to it. The material also has proven to be breathable while maintaining durability. It took 1.5 to 2 miles on each run before I began to feel comfortable. It almost felt as if the sole unit never truly broke in, as my feet had to adjust to the shoe on every run.. The whole shoe was stiff, but especially the sole.

Those models run anywhere from 110 to 130, while the Zoom Structure are right in the middle with a price tag of 120. It possesses all the long-distance comfort features that Vomero versions before the 14th version had, such as a plush, well-fitting upper, a super durable outsole and a soft midsole with deep cushioning. On the medial side, the midsole is built up more than on the lateral side so there is a noticeable level of under-arch support without the firm poking sensational.The problem, however, is that looks alone do not make a shoe. The sole unit was too firm, unresponsive and it took a couple of miles on every run to feel comfortable running in them.

After my first run in the Structure 23, I understood why Nike refrained from categorising the shoe as a stability shoe. I used my Structure 24 for mainly easy, middle distance runs which is what it feels most comfortable doing although it is capable of slightly faster efforts. The best thing about the Structure 24 is that it doesn’t feel like a firm, stiff stability trainer that pokes your arch. It’s a comfortable, stable and versatile trainer which can handle most runs. One thing I would agree on, is that for the first mile the shoes need some warm-up. After that, i usually feel like I’m running on clouds. Overall, the Nike Zoom Structure was a disappointment. I had my hopes up for a new brand and a brand that recently has been on the feet of so many championship runners. It’s very important to know your running gait so that we can advise and fit the correct shoes according to your own individual requirements. Can’t get into store? Try a wet foot testIn the running shoe world, it’s very rare that an update undergoes such a big change that it is unrecognisable. The only other example I can think of is the Nike Vomero 14. The Nike Structure has never been a soft shoe. It was the firm midsole that gave it its highly stable ride.

Please note that the onus is on the customer to choose the correct size and that all size charts are a suggested guide to measurements based on information supplied from the manufacturer. Stability is high even though there is no firmer wedge or medial post. This is due to two main reasons:

Nike Air Zoom Structure 23 Upper Unit

The Nike Air Zoom Structure 22 is a running shoe designed for people with flat feet. It helps runners to train with appropriate support. Plantar fasciitis or flat feet problems can be treated by regular stretching but wearing a shoe that supports the arch and heel correctly is a more lasting solution and that's where the Zoom Structure 22 comes in. The product is also a good choice for anyone who trains daily with a view to covering longer distances as it its hard-wearing and offers good support over an extended period of time. Support On Hard Surfaces Consider coming into a store and doing a video gait analysis. Gait analysis monitors your body’s movement and your feet (sports biomechanics) whilst running. It’s commonly used to help athletes run more efficiently and to identify movement related problems for people with injuries who are seeking new running shoes. However, the upper is a disappointment because the other elements of this shoe made the flywire ineffective. Nike Zoom Structure 22 Conclusions There are also no longer reflective strips on the sides of the toe box like on the 23, but there are still reflective strips on the sides of the heel counter. I remember watching a Galen Rupp interview years ago in which he said that he has always been a “Structure guy” and does all his training in the Structure.

The following size chart is a guide to Nike clothing and footwear sizes with a comparison to European and US sizes. However, the Zoom Structures were average, at best. Yes, I was able to log my miles, but the sole unit was too firm and the upper too washy.

The Structure 23 is no longer a traditional stability shoe with a firm ride and a harder medial post. During gait analysis you will be asked to walk and run on our in-store treadmill whilst your movements are recorded using the latest Daftfish software. A slow-motion, detailed analysis will show and explain your biomechanics, specifically looking at pronation, the inward-turning movement that occurs when your foot touches the ground. During walking and running this acts as cushioning for the body.
