Nike Free Run 5.0 Running Shoes
Made from at least 20% recycled material by weight, the sock-like boot of this Nike Free is designed to transition from running to training to your everyday routine. With a breathable knit upper, it combines the flexibility you love with a secure design that will help keep you close to the ground for that barefoot feeling.
Breathable Knit Upper
The Nike Free Run 5.0's upper is a stretchy, open-knit material that follows the shape of your foot closely, whilst also providing great breathability. The mesh construction allows an efficient amount of airflow in and out of the shoes, so that your feet stay dry, even during the more intense movements. Using this material will also allow your feet more room to stretch when you run, providing you with an ultimately comfortable experience. This is also reinforced with synthetic suede to provide abrasion protection and durability for the shoes. Completing the upper are laces with flywire technology throughout, designed to provide a more secure and flexible fit for your feet.
Flexible Midsole
Providing a sock-like fit, the midsole has a lighter, more comfortable foam, which is more responsive than its predecessors. The Nike Free midsole is 26% more flexible than last year's model, which gives you free rein to flex your midfoot, splay your toes and push off the ground, all without feeling inhibited. The midsole of the Nike Free Run 5.0 brings your feet closer to the ground, keeping you in tune with the terrain, and how your body is moving.
Nike Free Outsole
Engineered for the natural range of motion, Nike Free technology is integrated into these shoes to allow your feet to feel free to move. Laser-cut flex grooves offer more flexibility, with rubber at the forefoot and heel to provide extra durability. This mechanism allows your feet to move more in line with a barefoot run. Even more so, the Nike Free outsole is shaped to the anatomy of your foot, providing you with a more natural experience.
