Nike
Mens ZOOMX Invincible Run

Great runners especially on long runs. Definitely go half a size bigger for the perfect fit. They have fantastic cushioning and they were excellent value for money.

These shoes are amazing. True to size. Very soft under foot but the zoom x foam gives excellent feedback. When I try and go for a slow jog it really encourages me to go quicker. I really do love this shoe and at this price you can not go wrong. This is a neutral shoe.

Like running with springs on your feet - a unique and enjoyable experience. Nike come up 1/2 size smaller.

After my React Infinity Run Flyknit shoes, I was looking for a replacement and took a while to decide between the React Infinity Run Flyknit 2 or ZoomX Invincible Run Flyknit. As a fan of ZoomX I decided to go with the Invincibles. So if you're in a similar situation, maybe this comparison will help:

Looks: Not that it's important, but the ZoomX Invincible Run Flyknit is not a pretty shoe. It looks like a modern chunky tennis shoe with too much material. This is of course very subjective, but I'm not a fan. Luckily I'm more worried about performance... It has moved that massive Infinity forefoot landing pad to the heal, so if you're looking at the pictures and wondering about that, the heal area is oversized for sure, but that seems to propel you forward with that signature ZoomX springiness. Based on looks alone, I wouldn't buy again.

Upper: The Invincible locks your foot in so it doesn't move around at all. An extra lacing hole and a sock liner hold your foot in place nicely. I didn't have an issue with Infinity but reviews suggest some of you did. So to me this feels a bit claustrophobic but I'm getting used to that. I wouldn't want to wear them in hotter climates I don't think. The sock liner means there is an additional layer of fabric, and this "outer" doesn't sit flush with the liner so it doesn't keep its shape all that well/it sort of bubbles in places. The Flyknit is quite plastic-like so they don't get trashed as quickly as my Infinitys did. I'm not overly impressed with the upper - looks and construction - but they fit well out the box and are true to size.

Foam and outsole: ZoomX is awesome! If you have never tried it, this might be a good opportunity to change your runs. This is the main reason I chose the Invincibles over Infinity 2 as I was looking for ZoomX in a training shoe. I have some Vaporflys for races and if I could justify the cost I would wear them for training too. It's super responsive and as I said it's back heavy so you really spring forward with every step. The waffle outsole is nice and grippy and better than the Infinity outsole for that. As for durability, I was surprised the Infinity sole lasted as well as it did, only starting to show some light wear after 400kms, so if the Invincibles last as well I'll be happy. They are already showing a tiny bit of wear after 50km so we'll have to see about that. The mass is towards the heal and the oversized forefoot Nike talks about feels smaller than the Infinity, but that's an optical illusion set off by all the junk in the trunk. It's as big as Infinity up front and now with the added Invincible out back. Basically a whole lotta sole going on with this shoe!

Run quality: These are fast training shoes for serious runners, and would be very good racing shoes for anyone taking on a first half marathon or more or just getting into running and is prepared to spend the money. They are lighter than they look thankfully so once you are used to all that outsole you hardly notice they're on.

Price: Sheesh... not the cheapest, but if you're comparing these two shoes you're obviously serious enough to spend a bit more than a Pegasus. They are more than React Infinity Run Flyknit 2 so if you can afford the extra 20 and you're curious, definitely give them a try. If you're on the fence and don't want to pay so much, either get the original Infinity on sale (that is a bargain!) or stick to Pegasus or similar.

Injury prevention: I can't say if these prevent injuries or make it easier to go out training again the next day, but I haven't sustained any injuries with them and nor did I with Infinity. But I am lucky enough to not get too injured with any other shoes either.

To buy or not to buy: I don't like the upper or the looks, but this is great running shoe. Will I get it again, I don't know. Maybe there will be another option for me in another 400kms or so and then I'll be looking for reviews like this to make the decision even harder :)

I have suffered through my running life for a fair while now suffering with sore calves after most runs, I tried a variety of shoes and gait analysis etc etc. These running shoes have transformed my running experience and I not only have no calf pain, I am upping my mileage considerably and am amazed how little I suffer after my long runs wearing these. I can't reccomend them highly enough.

At first I thought these were over priced hype but after a couple of runs the hype is real. So comfortable and the return you get from the sole is unreal

Brilliant weight for a training shoe of this level of cushioning. It was surprisingly stable with a nice rocker that pushes you up onto your toes, the upper is probably the nicest I’ve had in a mileage trainer.

A very good shoe for steady runs of all distances.

The best running shoes I’ve ever tried, absolutely love them

The best shoes I’ve worn for long runs! The generous wedge of ZoomX keeps things controlled yet wonderfully cushioned and fast. The overall shape is a little clunky but other than that these shoes are excellent and very forgiving on the legs. Have enjoyed wearing them!

Suffered with knee problems whilst running, completed first half marathon coming back from injury and the trainers are miracle workers no pain not even the day after!!

The first thing I've noticed when I tried on these pair of Nike's I felt I was an inch or two taller. Once I've took my first steps in them, I now know how Neil Armstrong felt when he did the moon walk. I have bought a half size up, it was very comfortable. I would recommend if Nike can add a tab at the back so it's easier to put them straight on. The price was high but I browsed the web and look for a discount code and got them much cheaper. I would definitively buy another pair once these are worn to shred.

Pure comfort for easy day runs so excellent addition to the rotation.

These shoes are the ultimate recovery/long run companions. Like floating on air with a couple of trampolines to keep you moving forwards. After tough sessions, I look forward to pacing these up and heading out for round two. On my second pair and wouldn’t be without. They look bulky and make a slapping noise but don’t let put you off. Love them.

If you’re carrying a niggling injury or recovering from runners knee/shin splints etc these allow you to transition towards partial loading because they take almost all the pressure off the joints. As part of a rotation or along with other strengthening programs, these shoes are a one of a kind. Absolutely worth the cost. Have ordered a second pair.

Run just over 100k in these now and they’re a soft comfortable shoe. Maybe a tad too soft, but I find them great for the easy to mid paced days. You can pick up the pace in them if you want. All round a comfy shoe, could do with being a bit lighter and harder in the midsole. Worth the money? Bit on the price side!

These fit my wide feet better than any Nike shoe I have tried. I can get a good lockdown quickly without the need for a specific knot, and the tongue has that nice V-shaped groove to help keep it over the hard bony top of the foot, with enough padding to prevent hot spots.
And that midsole. Wow. So soft, yet with enough energy-return pop that it can still feel fast. Just don't try to go round any sharp corners flat out - you are high off the ground with that stack height. Stick to straight lines and mellow corners though and you will enjoy yourself; they feel more stable than they look. I am a midfoot striker and I feel like the shoe guides my feet to landing correctly.
The outsole is holding up ok but there is a lot of wear on the outside edge, just in front of the heel. Will see how that goes. It hasn't negatively impacted anything at this stage, but worth mentioning.
I am excited to run every time I pull on these shoes. I have just under 200 miles on mine and I am considering buying some more now in case they sell out, or in case version 2 comes along with changes that don't work for me!

Finally I have found a long run / easy shoe that does exactly what I hoped it would. The ZoomX foam bounces you along the road and your legs feel like they could run forever. Highly highly recommended.

Great cushioning yet, ideal for long runs.

A great if expensive buy.
Will buy again.
