With the quality seal of the American house, the Air Zoom Structure 22 are Nike s bet aimed at offering runners a shoe with enviable support and stability. They stand as one of the few options of the brand for lovers of a firm and secure footing. And along with the modern and renewed touch, the ultralight materials used and the comfort that characterizes the line, this revamp of the Nike Air Zoom Structure will delight any runner.

Nike Air Zoom Structure 22, a cutting-edge model

The Nike Air Zoom Structure 22 Running shoes appear as one of the two bets or options of the American house in terms of quality in its stability and support. While its sister, the Nike Odissey React, is geared towards competition, these Structure 22 are perfect for your daily training. The new Nike lands as the perfect option to accumulate kilometers and prepare your body for the most demanding races.

In comparison with other models from different brands and thanks to the technology implemented to offer the ideal support that these Structure 22 offer, we could say that they are similar to models such as the Saucony Guide, Brooks Ravenna or Asics GT 2000. All of them with a seal of quality in terms of consistency and firmness.

Upper: A quality zoom

Going into the materials and technologies that make this pronator shoea reference in terms of stability, we can differentiate its upper. Being the upper what has changed the most within the Structure range, the new arrivals from Nike incorporate their already known Engineered Mesh system, which is based on a synthetic and breathable seamless mesh that molds to the foot and provides unbeatable support.

While it is a mesh that allows the foot to breathe and prevents sweating, we are talking about a system that responds well and copes with external elements, thus favoring its durability. However, we must not forget that for a more effective response to inclement weather, Nike offers us the Shield version of these Structure 22, which implements the well-known shield waterproof membrane of the American house.

As if that were not enough, this remodeling of the Structure appears with the Flywire cable technology, this time in a visible way and in greater number, to make them a shoe with an exemplary fit. It is a technology already used in other high-end models such as the Nike Zoom Pegasus Turbo and, together with the reinforcement in the heel area, it enhances the stability of the whole and an enviable support.

If it works, don't change it

As far as the outsole and midsole are concerned, Nike has it clear; if something works, don't touch it. Ever since they decided to remodel this area of the shoe between the 19th and 20th editions of the Structure line, the North American company has not wanted to change one of its great successes. Composed of a dual mix of materials of different densities, the Nike Air Zoom Structure 22 combines Phylon and Cushlon foams to offer an exemplary feeling of comfort and security in footstep. It is a system that combines softness in the lateral area of the shoe with firmness in the medial part of the foot for greater control in the race.

The Dynamic Support technology of the midsole integrates the Duralon soft rubber compound in the forefoot and the BRS1000 material, which is more robust for the areas most exposed to wear. This makes them highly durable shoes, thanks in turn to the diagonal curvature they have, which favors a pronator footprint. In addition, the pentagon-shaped lugs of different sizes and the grooves on the outsole result in greater traction during running, which translates into exemplary stability and support.

Structure 22, a guaranteed revamp

The new NikeRunning shoes are presented as a quality reissue, offering all runners a rejuvenated model, with a more modern touch, but maintaining everything that made them a guarantee shoes. With stability as their flagship, these Nike Air Zoom Structure 22 combine color, design and the latest technology, all for a very affordable price.

As for its technical specifications, we can talk about its 10-millimeterdrop. This is the resultant between the differences in thickness of the front area, which is 12 millimeters, and the heel area, which reaches 22 millimeters. This favors a more dynamic stride and a more secure support to enjoy running.

If to all this we add the great lightness of the whole which does not exceed 280 grams, we can say that we are facing an all-terrain shoe. Improving on the previous Air Zoom Structure 21, the new model represents the balance between the stability and support needed for running and training and the lightness for fast times.

Conclusion: The most significant changes

After a thorough review of the Nike Air Zoom Structure 22, we concluded that it is a shoe designed specifically for runners looking for quality support. With stability and support , but without neglecting the comfort, dynamism and reactivity of other models, Nike s new shoe is a safe bet for any runner.

After having previously broken down all its features, we present what for us are the three most substantial changes of this remodeling and that make it a model of guarantee, stable and quality.

  • The Engineered Mesh. Manufactured by and for greater support, stability and foot wrapping.
  • Flywire cable system. It offers a perfect subjection favoring the control of the footprint in race.
  • Heel reinforcement. Optimizes and enhances the firmness of the whole as well as its durability.
