The more cushioning that you have underfoot, the softer and more comfortable your running experience can be. Cushioning helps soften impact as your feet hit the ground. Full-length Nike Air cushioning gives you a soft, comfortable feel for your miles. Engineered mesh—stronger and more flexible than regular mesh—improves hand feel and comfort, while maintaining a lightweight, breathable feel. Overlays at the toe add a layer of durability. Tongue is connected to the upper's inner lining for a secure feel.
