    Have you ever walked on Air? Step into the Air VaporMax 2023 to see how it's done. The innovative tech is revealed through the perforated sockliner (pull it out to see more). The stretchy Flyknit upper is made with at least 20% recycled content by weight.
    Lighter Than Air
    You'll be walking on Air and feeling lighter than it-this shoe weighs less than any other model with this Air unit so far.
    Flying High
    Stretchy and supportive Flyknit upper creates a striking visual that's seamless, breathable and feels as light as air.
    More Benefits
    The first 1-piece Air unit to run the entire length of a shoe, it allows for smoother transitions and adds unbelievable cushioning.
    Seamless collar sculpts the ankle and helps reduces hot spots.

    Nike Air VaporMax
    After the 7-year journey from ideation to release, the Air VaporMax represents a new era in Nike innovation. To truly capture the feeling of “running on air,“ the designers restructured the Air unit to be attached directly to the upper. As you step down, each lug gets pushed into the Air unit, ramping up the pressure. Then, as you step off, the pressure releases creating springy bounce with superior flexibility. Made for runners, the futuristic technology was quickly adopted by the street, bringing this light-as-air feeling to the masses.

    I had bought first version with almost 300 EU, the knit is comfortable and breathable, easy to put on, definitely cool looking shoe, kind of strange feeling when walking, never use them for running for giving me the feeling I will risk damaging an ankle, now catching dust on the shelve, I will take invincible run any time.

    One of the most comfortable pairs I own is my Vapormax 360 from 2020. I’m definitely a Vapormax fan but Nike does try basically everything with the shoe; sometimes it works, other times it doesn’t. Personally I’m not a fan of the VM Plus because I can’t stand the material they use on that shoe. I think Vapormax is still “catching on” and has done so much later than Nike anticipated or preferred but generally I’m glad they are always doing something with it.

    I own everything from Yeezy to New Balance and I wore my OG Vapormax flynit out. First pair of shoes that I’ve ran into the ground in decades. Just picked the Oreo colorway on sale for Black Friday. I look forward to breaking them in. Great shoe in my opinion. I also have the Scorpions and I can’t stand them. They hurt the outside of my feet for some reason. Thanks for posting this vid, it covered everything that I wanted to know.

    I like the Vapormax plus! They tend to make a squeaky sound when you first get them but over time it seems to go away. The Vapormax 2021 not necessarily a fan of them and I want to try the 2023 but I am trying to wait for them to go sale hopefully in the winter.

    I bought a pair from watching your vids and then got rid of them. The insole is so thin it feels like you are wearing football boots on concrete. You can feel the pattern of the air bubble through your feet. It's not comfortable

    I tried the Vapormax in 2019 and within 10 seconds... "Nope!". But a few weeks ago there was a pair in a thrift store, the Plus Black Gold for $25 in not far off new condition - that's a no brainer. I tried to get through the "barrier"...and after a few hours, I have to admit I kind of like them. Whilst they won't be competing with Invincibles, Novablasts, UBs, Infinitys' etc,. that firmish but cushioned, insulated feel does have some appeal and was actually pretty good for all day wear. I find them not unlike Nike AF1s in cushion feel - and that I don't mind at all.

  • @martinnohl
    @martinnohl 9 місяців тому

    Vapormax are definitely not for everyone. Your foot shape really does matter. You have to try these on before you buy. If they fit your foot correctly like mine do, these are the most comfortable shoes I own. My favorite for fit and comfort are my 2019's. The upper material is very supportive. Not as much of a fan of the knit pairs I have owned. The foot seems to float around a little loose in the shoe. Durability is an issue as well with the knit shoes. If you have ever worn football cleats, the Vapormax have a strangely similar feel to that, but they are very light and grip many surfaces well. I use mine mostly for golf. They are a fantastic alternative to using actual golf shoes.

  • @marcuspascall6867
    @marcuspascall6867 Рік тому +1

    My experience with the VaporMax wasn't the best, I was gifted a pair of the flyknit 3's and honestly they didn't last very long... some of the rubber caps came off of the air unit in a short space of time, I also observed this with my niece who also had a pair of the 3's. I honestly got way more performance and longevity from my airmax 720's which I still have and wear from time to time. The 720's are a much stronger sneaker in my opinion, too bad they aren't making them anymore....

    The OG Vapormax were great, but I was really disappointed with the revamped version with the smaller air unit - they just felt mediocre. Although not perfect, at least the OG Vapormax had a unique feel to them (kind of the whole point right?)

    Vapormax are dope..... They have definitely improved over the Og pure platinum model that I still have . The break-in factor (for me at least) is all but gone compared to what it used it be IMO. Just one of those situations where everything isn't for everybody.

    Big air bubbles are a gimmick. I bought 4 Vapormaxes on Mercari cuz they look cool, but man, they compress under my 200+ lb body, and make weird squitchey squitchey sounds. But they look cool as all get-out! A solid Saucony or New Balance foam sole is far better.
