Nike Men's Odyssey React 2 S Street Running Shoes

Product Information

Since I was used to the flyknit fabric of the Nike Epic React 2, it took me a while to get used to the Shield upper of the Odyssey React Shield. Browse Nike Training, Nike Running and Nike Football for clothes and sports accessories – think: arm bands and fitness aids. Inspired by 90s sportswear, your new favorite pants feature tonal 3-Stripes detailing and an unexpected yet ultra-stylish double waistband.

For reference, I found the fit very similar to the Adidas Ultraboost which has almost become synonymous with the word “sock-like fit” in the comfortable casual shoe wear community. It’s a soft yet stable cushioning platform that has enough spring for a 5K, and it can also hold up during long runs,” one tester said. This isn’t a shoe that will ever have you thinking about how you feel, either in a very positive or very negative way.I liked the ride and I didn’t experience any hotspots with the upper, but on longer distances, the lack of stability and the narrowness of the shoe were an issue. I wore them when it was pouring rain a few times and my feet stayed completely dry,” the tester said. Maybe it will get the acceptable temperature threshold down to around 0 degrees Celcius or cancel the wind getting into ankles. Underpinning the Nike Odyssey React Shield 2 running shoe is a midsole made from React foam, which offers reliable impact protection over long, demanding runs.

While their spikes have won countless medals, they’re best known for their record-breaking speed range, including the pioneering Alphafly and the legendary Pegasus. In addition to a shoe’s weight, we measure sole thickness (everything that sits between your foot and the road), how well the foam cushions your stride, and the flexibility of the forefoot. With the best-selling trainers in the game, scroll our Nike at ASOS edit to score everything from Air Force 1s and Air Max 90s to Blazers (now we’re cooking). The new Storm Tread rubber, in combination with a wavy pattern and a series of carvings on the midfoot, generates enormous traction over any terrain by repelling water out of the outsole. When asked about this shoe’s cushioning, one of our wear testers also stated that the React foam was great for a range of intensities, even after sustained testing.

These are benefits that you’ll receive on top of the perks you get already with each of your Pro:Direct Sport and Nike memberships. There's a foam collar for that extra bit of ankle support just in case you momentarily lose your footing in very slick conditions. After all, an upper that protects your feet from winter rain, wind, and snow is little without a midsole that you’ll enjoy running on. I can’t really say much other than that Odyssey React Shield 2 fit perfectly in just about every way you’d want.
