Nike VaporMax

Innovation in the field of sports shoes.

Article

Air VaporMax technology is a new cushioning system from a North American corporation introduced in 2016. It is another variation based on the iconic, revolutionary development - Nike Air. As before, air compressed in special capsules acts as the main material that absorbs shock loads.

But among the differences of this technology it is worth noting:

  1. Large volume of used air chambers;
  2. The use of cushioning capsules around the entire perimeter of the sole instead of only certain areas;
  3. The absence of foam, rubber or other materials that make up the sole;
  4. The division of the air chamber into separate segments.

As a result, the VaporMax system has even more shock absorbing potential and consequently better operating comfort. Due to the fact that the sole is not represented by anything more than air cushions, the weight of the sneakers has noticeably decreased. And crushing the sole into small sectors greatly increases the flexibility of the sneakers and improves their ability to adapt to various difficult terrains.

The Nike Air VaporMax 2020 Flyknit is an important step in the history of the brand. This shoe is one of Nike's most sustainable shoes to date, with at least 50 percent recycled content by weight. This was achieved through the creative implementation of the principles of cyclic design.

5 sustainable changes to VaporMax models:

  1. The first full-length VaporMax Air cushion to contain approximately 75% recycled materials (since 2008, all innovative Air soles have been made from at least 50% recycled materials).
  2. Flyknit is made from 67% recycled industrial waste and other recycled materials (including plastic bottles) by weight.
  3. Molded Ortholite insole made from 50% recycled materials. The tongue is made from at least 80% recycled foam.
  4. TPU inserts on heel and toe are 60% recycled TPU.
  5. The outsole of the Nike Air VaporMax 2020 features recycled Nike Grind rubber.

The popularity of this series of sneakers is due to only two factors - they have a very comfortable upper design, and their sole is ideal for any operating conditions. Most men and women who want to buy Nike Air Vapormax (Ukraine) prefer them due to their incredible lightness and springiness. The use of a visible air cushion in the outsole made the brand famous in 1987, and now the company has taken it even further. Specialists generally abandoned the use of rubber - the sole of the new sneakers is a collection of air cylinders connected to each other.

A modern person has the opportunity to buy Nike Vapormax, which weigh 200 - 240 g. The "air" sole greatly facilitates the design and at the same time provides amazing cushioning. In addition, it consists of individual pads and is not a monolithic construction, which guarantees unsurpassed flexibility.
