WMNS Nike Vomero 18 "Black" HM6804-004

Nike strips it back with this clean all-black version of the Vomero 18, letting the performance do the talking. The silhouette leans into comfort and practicality, pairing an understated upper with the most cushioned setup in the Vomero line to date.

The upper features engineered mesh that lets air in while keeping the foot supported. It wraps softly around the foot, especially around the forefoot and tongue where padding levels sit just right. There’s no gloss or contrast here—everything stays black, giving it a stealthy look that works for runs, commutes, or everyday wear.

Underneath, Nike stacks ZoomX foam above ReactX in the midsole. This combo delivers softness and spring in equal measure. Whether you’re clocking miles or on your feet all day, the cushion adapts to impact and gives something back with every stride. ReactX feels livelier than the previous foam—Nike claims around 13% more response—and that difference shows over longer sessions.

The outsole has also had a rethink. Instead of the usual layout, Nike places rubber pods where pressure hits hardest. This helps traction without weighing the shoe down and gives smoother heel-to-toe movement. The ride feels natural, and the outsole keeps grip consistent across dry and damp surfaces.

The Vomero 18 “Black” keeps things simple and performance-focused. It’s a solid option for runners looking for a neutral daily trainer, and equally reliable for those who want comfort first in a clean, no-fuss package.
