Nike’s ultra-stacked Vomero Premium push is a stepping into the New Year with a powerful stride, looking to be one of the top running shoes of 2026, not only for timed miles, but also across the comfort-obsessed lifestyle side of the industry. Nike is getting set for a strong showing from the Vomero Premium with plenty of colorways for the new year, including a new women’s exclusive that perfectly blends a black base with subtle pops of color.
The Nike Vomero Premium Black Sapphire Rose is covered in a base of pitch-black reinforced mesh and continues the blackout theme to the massive 55mm stacked midsole. The splashes of color come from a sapphire blue Swoosh on the side panel and a matching tongue logo with hot lava red dot overlays on the AIR branding across the bottom of the side panels. The Air Zoom unit underfoot doesn’t get a matching color accent like pairs in the past, with a fully blacked out midsole minus a small hit of lava red on the Air Zoom logo.

The running industry’s most prominent super-stack, the Vomero Premium, features a huge chunk of ZoomX foam for a midsole that surrounds two Air Zoom bubbles in the midfoot. With 55mm of added height on the shoe, the Vomero Premium isn’t just a cloud-like running shoe; it can also add a couple of full inches for those nights you want to look a little taller without heels.
The Nike Vomero Premium Black Sapphire Rose will be released January 15, 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in women’s sizing, the retail price is set at $230. For all the latest Nike running news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
