VaporMax Air technology provides a soft, lightweight feel. Stretch textile and synthetic upper adds lightweight structure. Cushioning only where you need it increases flexibility. Midfoot cage adds extra support. Rubber pods in high-wear areas enhance durability. Designed for running but adopted by the street, the Nike Air VaporMax 2019 features the lightest, most flexible Air Max cushioning to-date. A stretch woven material wraps your foot for lightweight support and stability, while an external reinforcement in the heel secures the back of your foot.
