These flexible shoes provide the feel of barefoot running with the comfort and protection of a shoe. You can build strength, and with that, the potential to prevent injury while enjoying their barefoot-like ride. For this season, the Nike® Free is designed to better grip the foot and there has been a subtle tread pattern change, intended to enhance natural movement.
- Uppers are breathable mesh with bonded layers and strategically placed synthetic underlays that produce a lightweight second-skin fit
- Full inner sleeve provides a comfortable sock-like fit that hugs your foot
- Asymmetric lacing reduces pressure over the top of the foot
- Midsoles are injection moulded 60% Phylon EVA, 40% rubber for a resilient ride that's durable enough to double as the outsole, reducing the overall weight
- Waffle pistons in the sole absorb impact and return energy for added responsiveness
- Outsoles have a pattern of deep sipes for a smooth and flexible ride. Durable, abrasion-resistant carbon rubber protects the midsole material in high-wear areas
- Neutral platform
