The Zoom Vomero 5 shows no signs of slowing down. First released in 2011 as a performance runner, it made a comeback in 2019 and has since become one of the Beaverton brand's most hyped silhouettes. Even though countless color combos have been released over the past few years, they still keep selling out. Next up for the model is a black-shaded pair with court blue accents.
Working on top of a breezy mesh base, the vibrant shades hit the leather panels that wrap around the toebox and heel. But these aren't just for flexing in the daytime, because they're actually coated with a 3M finish that reflects in blue during low-light conditions.
Of course, this is still a running shoe at its core, so it comes loaded with some truly advanced tech. The sidewalls are held in place with a flexible rubber cage, and underfoot, the midsole is housed in Cushlon foam, delivering plush, responsive cushioning. A full-length Zoom Air unit takes comfort to the next level, making every stride feel almost cloud-like.
Scheduled to release sometime in 2025 via Nike and select retailers both online and in-store, the Nike Zoom Vomero 5 Court Blue will be available in unisex sizing with a retail of $170.
