Product Information

Full details

The Nike Womens Structure Plus trainers are designed for female runners seeking enhanced stability and speed. They offer a lighter, faster combination of foams than previous models, featuring a midfoot support system for secure transitions and optimal breathability. A potential caveat is that while offering stability, the firm construction might not suit those preferring a very plush feel.

FAQs

Who are the Nike Structure Plus trainers best suited for?

These trainers are ideal for female runners who need extra stability during their runs, particularly those who overpronate slightly. They are also suitable for runners seeking a blend of responsiveness and support for daily training and tempo runs.

What is the difference between ZoomX and ReactX foam in these shoes?

ZoomX foam is lightweight and highly responsive, placed directly under the foot for a dynamic feel. ReactX foam is sturdier and firmer, providing the core stability that the Structure range is known for. Together, they offer comfort and support.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the UK sizing guide provided by Nike. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the size chart. Ensure a snug but not constricting fit, especially around the midfoot.

Can these trainers be used for cross-training or gym workouts?

While primarily designed for running, their stability features may offer support for some cross-training activities. However, they are not optimized for lateral movements typical in gym workouts and are not intended as PPE.

Are there other colorways available?

Yes, the Nike Structure Plus series is available in various color combinations, including Purple/Red, Black/Red, and Purple/Silver, alongside this Black/Silver option.

How should I care for the reflective details?

The reflective details are integrated into the shoe's design. Standard cleaning methods using a damp cloth should preserve them. Avoid abrasive cleaning or harsh chemicals that could damage the material.

What is the weight of these trainers?

The Nike Womens Structure Plus trainers weigh approximately 248 grams, making them a lightweight option for runners looking for speed and agility.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight in the midfoot.

Ensure laces are not over-tightened. Try lacing techniques that offer more flexibility or loosen the midfoot area. If the issue persists, consider if this model's fit is suitable for your foot shape.

Reduced responsiveness after initial use.

The foams are designed to offer a blend of responsiveness and stability. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry. Persistent issues might indicate the shoe is not the right fit for your gait or running style.

Discomfort during heel strike.

Check the heel counter for any damage or deformation. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. The 10mm heel offset is designed for a specific stride; ensure this aligns with your natural foot strike.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent stability for heel-to-toe transitions.
  • Offers a responsive and comfortable ride due to the ZoomX foam.
  • Lightweight design aids in achieving faster running times.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet cool during runs.
  • Durable outsole ensures longevity, especially in the heel area.

Cons

  • The firmer ReactX foam might feel less cushioned for runners preferring a softer shoe.
  • May not be ideal for neutral runners who do not require specific stability features.
  • The midfoot band, while secure, might feel restrictive for some foot shapes.
  • Not intended for use as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
