We return to one of the most popular sections among our followers, yes, we refer to the shoe of the week: Nike Structure 23 . We analyze a training shoe that comes with great aesthetic changes, along with superior safety and protection for the athlete. The Oregon firm never ceases to surprise us, and it is already more than 20 updates of a model created by and for heavy runners with a tendency to pronate. You know what we're talking about, right?
The Nike Structure family is one of the most emblematic for pronator runners looking to complete long distances at light paces. Its twenty-third release has given a lot to talk about, and, in addition to ensuring maximum stability, these Running shoes have several changes in areas such as the sole or upper that only increase the athlete's running sensations.
As we were anticipating, the Nike Structure 23 represents a change of concept in one of the lines par excellence for pronator runners. This is what the latest releases of Nikes Air Zoom family reminded us; versatile and competitive shoes but with a more modern look. In this case, something similar happens. In fact, as the brand itself indicates, the Nike Structure 23 has been created as a fast, safe and reliable companion for everyday use.
If we look back, we can even witness the loud change in the Vomero 14 compared to Nikes Vomero 13 , which left aside that classic running shoe aesthetics, adopting a faster look. The Nike Structure 23 follows that path and opts for a less classic profile that also stands out for certain modifications in terms of performance.
Maximum stability, support and protection during the race are guaranteed. Without further ado, let's analyze each of the sections of this training shoe, its main features and novelties.
Midsole
The midsole doesn't present any variations in this new release from the American brand. While the Phylon layer and the EVA foam provide spectacular cushioning and shock absorption, the two Air Zoom units incorporated in the forefoot area are a bit more reactive and offer superior stability along with a more dynamic stride.
Upper
In the upper there are some changes that improve the runner's experience. First of all, it contains a more perforated fabric, which provides breathability and the necessary fit for optimal running sensations. In addition, it incorporates a padding in the heel that, together with the tongue, provides greater comfort to the whole.
Outsole
We find a change in the pattern of the outsole compared to the Nike Structure 22. Optimized to extend the life of the shoes, especially in the hottest areas that tend to wear out, it offers superior grip even on the most uneven terrain, despite being designed to work on asphalt.
The Nike Structure family has become a reference for runners who tend to pronate during their runs. It has been conceived to guarantee maximum stability to those runners, either pronators or heavy runners, who are looking to complete the most daily long distance sessions at light paces.
The followers of the saga will have already noticed that it has a much lower drop than its previous version, this time of 7.6mm. With a very good value for money, Nike leaves aside that image of heavy shoes for overpronators and brings us a much lighter, more versatile and modern model, without giving up the support, fit and comfort to which we are accustomed.
Now that you know the Nike Structure 23 and its iconic family, composed of more than 20 models for overpronators, youcan't missout on trying them!
