Interesting Ben 👏 I always preferred my vomero 15 to the Pegasus 37/38…. It felt like a shoe that the Pegasus “should have been” and the Pegasus should have evolved… but it hasn’t. Good to hear the 17 is a solid option
Vomero 14 was better than the Pegasus at the time. It was like a premium Pegasus, a responsive long run shoe. I had two pairs of them. The problem with that shoe was hot upper especially in the toebox and the fact that its midsole "died" quite quickly. After that there was a big change, 15 was totally different. In my opinion that shoe was made for ultra running which Vomero traditionally was 'til the v13. It was soft in heel and didn't feel as responsive as the previous version. That is why I preferred the React Infinity run. When the Novablast was launched, I didn't like to run in Vomeros anymore.
@@TimGrose yes Vomero is a premium option, whereas Pegasus is the average shoe for most purposes. It doesn't excel in anything but you can wear it for everything. That is why it has been a popular shoe for example among high school kids who can do everything from football to running and from gym to going to movies in that shoe. Parents buy one pair shoe that can do it all. The same applies to people who don't do sports at all although Hoka Clifton is threatening Nike Pegasus as a shoe of choice in dog walking and hypermarket/mall visiting. Pegasus has also been better than Vomero at gyms where people might wear the same shoe for classes, weight lifting, crosstrainer, running on treadmill and cycling. Recent models have provided quite good lateral stability and grip which is good in classes like HIIT. There are also much more stores that sell Pegasus and big chains put it in campaigns. We need also running shoes that are often available in double-digit prices. Most consumers don't want to try something new. They know what they wear and when they need a new pair, they want to go to a store and feel like that they can afford to buy a pair again.
Very interesting! You manage to cover all the main facts AND add your “meta” comments about who the shoe would be for and how it fits in the rotation while being entertaining and only needing 8 min for it: great content - thank you!
My favourite daily is the Puma Velocity Nitro (first iteration). Got it when it first came out (for about 45 quid!). Wore it out. Then tried various others. Novablast 3, Brooks ghost, pegs, Reebok floatride. None of them felt as good as the puma velocity nitro. So a couple of weeks ago, I hopped on to Vinted and snaffled a pair of the version 1 for 25 quid brand new. Absolutely delighted.
Maybe some more obscure picks here...but for years my go-to daily shoe is the Altra Escalante. Models 2.5 and 3 are among my favorites. Also really enjoyed the Topo Cyclone 2 from last year. Super light....and very comfortable for daily miles.
Thanks Ben. Would love to get back into a Nike and this one looks tempting but going to wait for the imminent launch of the Puma velocity nitro 3 and see how it goes down with the reviewers before making choice.
I’ve worn Pegasus since the 36s - but I’m finding them a bit stiff now. I have the invincible 2s, which I love, but I find they’re not stable enough for every day. The Vomeros sound like a happy medium! Thanks for a great review!
Vomero 14 was probably my favourite all time shoe, though the outsole wouldn't last the longest. Went through several pairs, and have one pair left still! Vomero 13 was good to me too, though quite a different shoe. Helped a lot when I was suffering with heel issues and kept me moving.
I had the Vomero 14 a few years back. I really enjoyed them, but struggle to justify the extra price over the Pegasus for an everyday shoe. If I can get them on discount then I might get another pair of Vomero's. They did last me more miles than any other show has.
I have bought the Vomero 17s because of your review and its great. Sizing Advice: My size for regular Nike Sneakers (AF 1) is 12.5 US. For the Vomeros I had to size up to US 13.
Best daily trainer that Nike has right now. (IMHO) The miles just feel so easy. Great comfort underfoot, and that Zoom X foam on top with the Cushlon 3.0 under it is 🔥.
Daily running shoes - rotating between Novablast 3 and Saucony Endorphin speed 3. For the muddy, wet and slippery days and parkruns - use Pegasus 39 shield
Great Vid! I just bought Vomero 17 today here in Nike Saudi Arabia.. can't wait to use it tomorrow. looks like a great alternate runners for my Pegasus 40.
Great shoe, and perhaps the best colorway too. The gradient paintjob on the midsole with matching bottom layer of the upper peeking through the outer mesh is beautiful.
I have this shoe saved in my wish list so I'm glad you liked it and also all your positive experience are stuff that I want in a shoe so thanks for sharing. I had vomeros and pegasus' but the latest pegasus was a big disappointment for me and I'm waiting for the 41 to drop because my thinking is that probably that one will be all new, the 40 was just an update but after this video I'm 100% going with the vomero.
OK, just ordered them right now! Tried the another Nike shoe a couple of months ago and like it so will try to Vomero. Really want a pair of SuperBlasts's but unavailable in my size right now for less than $400 in Canada. Luckily, I am not breaking any land speed records or going to the Olympics! :-). Thanks for the suggestion.
Love the runs round the Old Royal Naval College.. if it's a good enough location for a blockbuster Hollywood movie or two it's certainly do well for a shoe review!!
Hi Ben, first of all, thank you for all the great videos that you produce, they're all great! I've got one question which is: why do you never try any Adidas shoes? Are they all a straight no for your type of feet/runs?
I loved the Vomero 15s and now moved on to the 17s and I love them even more.. Exactly as you said, I run 5Ks and 10Ks in the Vomero 17s and they’re amazing running shoes overall. I’ve tried them on longer runs and there is where I felt they were slightly lacking in terms of cushioning and comfort for 2+ hour runs.
Bought the Vomero 17 a couple days of ago. Had my first run today. 8k. Felt s bit weird. My last shoe was the Brooks Ghost 18 so the the Nike Vomero is from another galaxy. I felt running on cushions. I think I need some more milrage to have a better opinion about the shoe
My favorite shoes depends on the training Session I`m in. TempoTraining Nike Zoomfly 5 and Brooks Hyperion Max (looking forward fot the update this year) Intervalls Brooks Hyperion Tempo Long runs Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23 Threshold Hooka Arahi. For trails Nike wildhorse 8.
Thanks for the review Ben! I've been waiting for this one. Interesting that you say it comes up narrow; I heard it fits on the wider side. It didn't feel narrow when I put it on but it might explain why I've had some rubbing in them (I've got wide feet). I've done 70k in them but gonna give them till 100 till I decide whether to stick or twist.
I'm a Nike guy when it comes to racing shoes and tempo shoes but I think they're not doing great in the daily trainer area. I tried these but ending up returning them. To me, they felt like a more dull and heavier Saucony Triumph 21. The upper is too thick and the majority of the cushioning is placed in the heel and overall, it doesn't really feel like ZoomX, the midfoot strike is pretty non-responsive and doesn't feel very cushioned. I think this shoe might be good for a heavy runner with a heavy heel strike but for me, I just didn't enjoy it at all, as compared to the Saucony Triumph which also has plenty of cushioning but with a better upper and a nicer ride.
Totally agree regarding the thick upper and heel cushion. The upper is too thick and it gets so hot after a few miles. I am planning to return it and get Saucony/Hoka.
The sweet spot for me was the Vomero 13. I ran London in a pair of 3’s and Edinburgh in some 5s so have been there since the early days. I ended up with 5 boxes of the 13 and am now on my last pair 😢. The design then changed and I’ve not gone back past the 14. Might be time to return…
Bought them the other day on Zalando for €115 which is about £100. I tend to use them for slower runs. For faster runs I use the Puma Deviate Nitro 2. I was able to pick both pairs up for €230 which is about £200. Bargain for 2 solid pairs of shoes with good grip and durability.
I kind of wish this would have popped up before I bought the 41's, which are comfortable, but the heel is a bit stiff compared to what I prefer or am used to. I love the Invincible runs but the 3's have terrible heel slip for me. So settled for the 41's. Didn't even know the Vomero's were a thing until today.
Heel counter on the Invincible 3 is a travesty, especially for a shoe generally appreciated for it's cushioned and supportive upper. The rest of the upper is not great either, in my opinion. I am not a fan of the plastic upper with no give. The shoe as a whole just doesn't fit my running style. Try using the runner's knot/loop to better anchor your heel in the shoe.
Bought it but was too big. Wearing them around the house the cushion seemed nice but it didn't feel like it had much of a rocker. Sent them back and didn't buy the smaller size.
Would this be good for sprint training on the track (especially on a harder recortan track)? I've started to run sprints in my New Balance Rebel v3 that I used on the treadmill before for 2k and 5k and unfortunately it's way too roomy in the front, plus the lockdown is mediocre, so it's not stable enough for sprinting on a track.
Hi Ben. I just bought this vomero 17 but I got a women size 39 as 40 is big for me. I would like to know if there is no downside in women shoes and if its just the same with men shoes. Thank you for your feedback.
Hello, Ben my query is this shoes can cause pain in arch of foot? As you describing this shoe makes clunky sound. Please suggest me any shoes that supports the foot arch.
I liked the cushioning of the Vomero but I seemed to get shin splints every time I ran in them. Pegasus have also gone really stiff and non responsive (in wide fit anyway). Invincble didnt suit me either. I used to always wear nike but now feel none of their shoes suit me
I'm a Vomero runner for years now 😂. Tried some Brooks last year, but al returning already. First 50K in my new Vomero's were good, and I look forward to the next 550K
Honestly for the price or much less you can get the adidas boston 12, it has better foams overall, it is lighter better overall durability in the sole and you can use it all day like as a travel shoe.
Hi Ben. Great review. Just one question... You said you went half a size down to a UK 11, but on your reviews of the Pegasus 39 & and 40, you said for you a UK size 12 was perfect. I also have a Peg 39 for reference and am wondering if I should be ordering this Vomero in half a size down or a full size down? Thanks!
Hi Ben, for at least 10 years I'm been a member of the Brooks family: Adrenaline for roads and the GTX and now Cascadia for trails. But I notice that you are mostly use Asics and Nike. Any thoughts on Brooks? In these matters it is worth exploring different options or sticking to what you know if it does appear to be working?
Appreciate your reviews Ben, esp since you have a narrow heel like me (I remembered that correctly, yes?)! I'm looking for another shoe for rotation with my Sauconys and debated going back to the ASICS GT-2000 (wore them a few models ago) as I'm not thrilled with the ON cloud flyers I was talked into at the shoe store, lol. I don't like a lot of cushion, prefer the feel of the road but still have some support/cushion which is why I use my Guides a LOT. But again I need another comfy daily trainer and just cannot decide which way to turn. I loved my ADIDAS Adizero Boston 9s, but then they went to the more plush under foot, yuck. My head is swimming with so many options...your opinion? The heel lock down is HUGE for me, so when ppl have mentioned the GT-2000 have some slippage in the current model, I'm leery about going back to them. Wondering if I give Nike a try with these as I've not run in a Nike in many years. Appreciate your input...God bless, Megan
Which nike would you use for training for a marathon? (I have now pegasus with 950km, so looking for new ones). First marathon was in september (4h48m42s). Training for Ghent Marathon now (24 march). Race shoe is now hoka rocket x2
I am in the hunt for some new shoes and checking all your shoe videos. I have some pegasus turbo 2 for speed work and some pegasus 38 or something which are 3 years old. Would you recommend the pegasus plus over the vomero 17? Would you recommend both the pegasus plus and Superblast over the vomero 17 and novablast 4? Great videos Ben as usual. Thanks
Quick weird question, but what is the exact length of your foot, because if i look up the UK 11 in cm its 30cm and my feet is 29.2 cm. Not sure if i should take a size up or take the UK 11?
Thanks for your reviews!! You got my LIKE!! One quick question: Which is better running shoe for recovery and slow-pace daily, NB1080 v13, Nike Vomero 17 or Novablast 4???
watching the review of both the pegasus 40 and this i dont know which one to get, the pair i get will be for longer runs, edging more for the vomero after this but still unsure, any help?
Hey Ben! Currently training for London and looking for another shoe to add in. Do you reckon these would be any good for track intervals? Current rotation is: easy/recovery - old (500k+) Superblast, track - Streakfly/Mach 5, Intervals - Endorphin Pro 3 (race shoe), Steady runs & Long Runs - fresh pair of Superblasts, Race - Pro 3 or Vaporfly.
You are amazing and always love following along with you and your training and races! You seem to eat beans in your diet often. I know you are vegan so I was wondering if they ever interfere with your gut or digestive system during training...?? I'm pescitarian. Had to eliminate dairy and beans from my diet during marathon training because I became very sensitive to both... Thanks for sharing your tips. I'm always motivated by you and your enthusiasm!!
Hoka Mach 5 will be way less durable, depends what you want and how many shoes are in your rotation. If your going for just a one shoe daily trainer then vomero, otherwise maybe have a daily trainer (vomero, 1080, Pegasus) and then the Mach 5 as more of a speed shoe. Up to you tho.
I guess just because a shoe CAN last 800k, does not mean you should take it that far. Typically the midsole has lost a lot of protection and performance far before that. I think leg saving occurs most efficiently somewhere around 300ish (or less) miles on a pair of shoes.
I've watched other reviews on this platform, but it's your take that I wait for the most. Appreciate it!
Interesting Ben 👏 I always preferred my vomero 15 to the Pegasus 37/38…. It felt like a shoe that the Pegasus “should have been” and the Pegasus should have evolved… but it hasn’t. Good to hear the 17 is a solid option
Price differentation I guess? If the Pegasus had the some foam(s) as a Vomero what would be the point of both.
@@TimGrose very true mate!

the vomero 15 and 17 dont even feel remotely similar, coming from an elite hs runner, the vomero 17 is so much better
Thanks for confirmation biasing my current rotation of Vomero 17 and Vaporfly 3.
Very interesting!

I put 1000 miles on the Vomero 16. I weigh 95kg. Most durable shoe I've ever owned.
Vomero 14 was probably my favourite all time shoe, though the outsole wouldn't last the longest. Went through several pairs, and have one pair left still! Vomero 13 was good to me too, though quite a different shoe. Helped a lot when I was suffering with heel issues and kept me moving.
I am loving the 17. Finally a great Nike trainer again that I can run in.

Rebel V3. Just grabbed them on sale from NB and loving them!
Daily running shoes - rotating between Novablast 3 and Saucony Endorphin speed 3.
For the muddy, wet and slippery days and parkruns - use Pegasus 39 shield
Great Vid! I just bought Vomero 17 today here in Nike Saudi Arabia.. can't wait to use it tomorrow. looks like a great alternate runners for my Pegasus 40.
Great shoe, and perhaps the best colorway too. The gradient paintjob on the midsole with matching bottom layer of the upper peeking through the outer mesh is beautiful.
Curious that you have different sizes in this, Pegasus and Alphafly so UK 11/11.5/12. I am a UK 13 and feel fine in the same size in all of them.
Thanks Ben! My current daily is a pair of Asics Novablast 3 Lite
Those died after 220km for me, i expect peg/vomeros to last 4-5x that
My favorite daily shoes is Hoka Arahi 6. Light, comfortable, and stable. Still cannot find other shoes as good as this for my daily run.
How about the Puma Nitro Deviate 2 as an alternative? Puma Grip, a plate and £90 with a discount code.
My daily is the Pegasus 39’s. I love them. I even bought an extra pair for when I finish these.
But must admit the comer o sounds like a nice option.
The new cushlon middlesole is very stable , durable, and comfortable ! I don't have the Vomero 17 , but I do have the Structure 25, and I love them .
I have this shoe saved in my wish list so I'm glad you liked it and also all your positive experience are stuff that I want in a shoe so thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the suggestion.
As soon as I can get it on sale I'll be buying it!! Thanks for the great review Ben! 👍👍😁
I got one today for 135 bucks. Didn’t know it was a bargain
Purchased this shoe earlier today. Excited to try it out.
How’s the result ?
My all time favourite shoes were the Vomero 10s but havent had any since....these look good.
Love the runs round the Old Royal Naval College.. if it's a good enough location for a blockbuster Hollywood movie or two it's certainly do well for a shoe review!!
Eagerly Waiting for pegasus 41 launch in April, before deciding on the vomero 17
I've never found a Nike shoe that works for me, maybe I'll give this a go.
Hi Ben, first of all, thank you for all the great videos that you produce, they're all great!

Got Nike Vomero 17 this week and I love it 🎉
Thanks for the review Ben! I've been waiting for this one. Interesting that you say it comes up narrow; I heard it fits on the wider side. It didn't feel narrow when I put it on but it might explain why I've had some rubbing in them (I've got wide feet). I've done 70k in them but gonna give them till 100 till I decide whether to stick or twist.

Are they comfy for marathon?
This is my favourite daily trainer out there. I see version 18 is being released in Feb 2025, so i’m very much looking forward to that release🔥
I can`t decide betwen vomero 17 and Novablast for my next daily trainer. I guess i`ll go for the cheaper one at the moment.
Excellent shoe. Get the wide / extra wide. Reminds me a little bit of Brooks but with a bit more umph
I kind of wish this would have popped up before I bought the 41's, which are comfortable, but the heel is a bit stiff compared to what I prefer or am used to. I love the Invincible runs but the 3's have terrible heel slip for me. So settled for the 41's. Didn't even know the Vomero's were a thing until today.

Saucony ride 16’s by far the best daily.

Shoe of the year. Criminally underrated
I got them for 100€ in discount and will test them tomorrow. Thanks for advice
Hi Ben. I just bought this vomero 17 but I got a women size 39 as 40 is big for me. I would like to know if there is no downside in women shoes and if its just the same with men shoes. Thank you for your feedback.
Women shoes just narrower than men. Anything else is quite the same
Hello, Ben my query is this shoes can cause pain in arch of foot? As you describing this shoe makes clunky sound. Please suggest me any shoes that supports the foot arch.
This shoe is an absolute banger. The perfect long run shoe.
Loving my Novablast 3, grip is terrible this time of year though
Vomero 17 or Saucony Triumph 21? I need room on the toebox...and one just one pair for everything.
i know its out of topic, but can you make a review of the Puma Magnify Nitro 2? Continue the nice work. Best regards.
Have you tried the Winflo 9s? Great daily trainer and on par with the pegasuses imo
I liked the cushioning of the Vomero but I seemed to get shin splints every time I ran in them. Pegasus have also gone really stiff and non responsive (in wide fit anyway). Invincble didnt suit me either. I used to always wear nike but now feel none of their shoes suit me
my current daily is the new Asics Novablast 4
This with glycerine 21 or triump 21 .....which is good
Would you say they're comparable to the Tempo Next %?....that was my favourite shoe to train in but sadly they're not making it anymore :/
I'm a Vomero runner for years now 😂. Tried some Brooks last year, but al returning already. First 50K in my new Vomero's were good, and I look forward to the next 550K
Where do you get your running socks from? They always look really neat. Particularly the green ones.
Honestly for the price or much less you can get the adidas boston 12, it has better foams overall, it is lighter better overall durability in the sole and you can use it all day like as a travel shoe.
Hi Ben. Great review. Just one question...
You said you went half a size down to a UK 11, but on your reviews of the Pegasus 39 & and 40, you said for you a UK size 12 was perfect. I also have a Peg 39 for reference and am wondering if I should be ordering this Vomero in half a size down or a full size down?
Thanks!
In your guys opinion, between this one and the Nike tempo next %, each one the best?
Hi Ben, for at least 10 years I'm been a member of the Brooks family: Adrenaline for roads and the GTX and now Cascadia for trails. But I notice that you are mostly use Asics and Nike. Any thoughts on Brooks? In these matters it is worth exploring different options or sticking to what you know if it does appear to be working?
Would you compare these to the Hoka Clifton 9? Are these 2 similar to you?
Hi mate I've look and seen sacouny kinavara for good price but what shoe do you recommend?. Max speed 120 want daily shoe
Great review.. thank you.
Appreciate your reviews Ben, esp since you have a narrow heel like me (I remembered that correctly, yes?)! I'm looking for another shoe for rotation with my Sauconys and debated going back to the ASICS GT-2000 (wore them a few models ago) as I'm not thrilled with the ON cloud flyers I was talked into at the shoe store, lol. I don't like a lot of cushion, prefer the feel of the road but still have some support/cushion which is why I use my Guides a LOT. But again I need another comfy daily trainer and just cannot decide which way to turn. I loved my ADIDAS Adizero Boston 9s, but then they went to the more plush under foot, yuck. My head is swimming with so many options...your opinion? The heel lock down is HUGE for me, so when ppl have mentioned the GT-2000 have some slippage in the current model, I'm leery about going back to them. Wondering if I give Nike a try with these as I've not run in a Nike in many years. Appreciate your input...God bless, Megan
Which nike would you use for training for a marathon? (I have now pegasus with 950km, so looking for new ones). First marathon was in september (4h48m42s). Training for Ghent Marathon now (24 march). Race shoe is now hoka rocket x2
I need a replacement for my Nike Tempos...how do they compare
my fav is invincible 3 - grey and red
Can you run easy pace for more than 30km with it?
I am in the hunt for some new shoes and checking all your shoe videos. I have some pegasus turbo 2 for speed work and some pegasus 38 or something which are 3 years old. Would you recommend the pegasus plus over the vomero 17? Would you recommend both the pegasus plus and Superblast over the vomero 17 and novablast 4? Great videos Ben as usual. Thanks
I had a vomero16 and the cushioning was surprisingly me😊
Is it in any way similar to pegasus turbo 35? (If we can ignore the weight)
I’m gonna be real basic right now, Pegasus 39 is good but has a tendency of roiling your foot
Quick weird question, but what is the exact length of your foot, because if i look up the UK 11 in cm its 30cm and my feet is 29.2 cm. Not sure if i should take a size up or take the UK 11?
Thanks for your reviews!! You got my LIKE!!
One quick question: Which is better running shoe for recovery and slow-pace daily, NB1080 v13, Nike Vomero 17 or Novablast 4???
1080
I much prefer the Pegasus Turbo, it's so much more comfortable for daily running. Less durable but it's worth it (if you can still find it).
watching the review of both the pegasus 40 and this i dont know which one to get, the pair i get will be for longer runs, edging more for the vomero after this but still unsure, any help?
got it for $80 after watching your video! so excited
Second :) I always loved the Pegasus have had every one since the 36, might have to give the Vomero a look.
Can we use this for daily use including gym
Hi Ben, how do you compare vomero17 and superblast? If I’ve already had superblast, is it necessary to buy vomero17 for rotation?
I think the answer is no. They are targeting the similar areas.
And how is Invincible 3 in comparison with these shoes?
Good Luck Ben
Hey Ben! Currently training for London and looking for another shoe to add in. Do you reckon these would be any good for track intervals? Current rotation is: easy/recovery - old (500k+) Superblast, track - Streakfly/Mach 5, Intervals - Endorphin Pro 3 (race shoe), Steady runs & Long Runs - fresh pair of Superblasts, Race - Pro 3 or Vaporfly.
I hope you are sub 2:20 with that arsenal lmao
Where did you get those blue socks?
You are amazing and always love following along with you and your training and races!
You seem to eat beans in your diet often. I know you are vegan so I was wondering if they ever interfere with your gut or digestive system during training...?? I'm pescitarian. Had to eliminate dairy and beans from my diet during marathon training because I became very sensitive to both...
Thanks for sharing your tips. I'm always motivated by you and your enthusiasm!!
Anyone know the difference between standard and extra wide sizing ?
This or the Hoka Mach 5?
Hoka Mach 5 will be way less durable, depends what you want and how many shoes are in your rotation. If your going for just a one shoe daily trainer then vomero, otherwise maybe have a daily trainer (vomero, 1080, Pegasus) and then the Mach 5 as more of a speed shoe. Up to you tho.
I guess just because a shoe CAN last 800k, does not mean you should take it that far. Typically the midsole has lost a lot of protection and performance far before that. I think leg saving occurs most efficiently somewhere around 300ish (or less) miles on a pair of shoes.
Vomero 17 vs superblast 2? Someone help pls😊
