The Nike Air Zoom Elite 4 is made for the fast runner that looks for a low-profile, superlight, responsive and stable running shoe.

Features:
• Fit: Super breathable upper with supportive welds where you need them most. Soft vamp overlays for great toe-off
• Cushioning: Phylon for light, yet resilient cushioning. Zoom air units in heel and foot
• Traction: BRS 1000 rubber at heel contact zone for maximum abrasion resistance. Solid rubber lugs in a Waffle Fill configuration for exceptional multi-surface traction
• Other: Nike+ Ready

Product Review, by Carol R4W Member

Cushioning -. Really felt like I had a spring in my step. Excellent. Score 5/5

Comfort – I have struggled to find something as good as my New Balance 864s but these Nike’s definitely come up to the mark. Very comfortable all round. Score 5/5

Grip/Responsiveness -. Felt very safe in these. Score 5/5

Stability – I overpronate on my right foot but these held both feet in a very stable position. My feet felt comfortable and well supported. Score 5/5

Overall, a shoe of the high standard that one would expect from Nike. Only small down point might be that due to the mesh like fabric round the front and side of the trainers I’m not sure how they would be in very wet weather – but then I guess one wouldn’t wear them if it was raining heavily! Score 5/5

I love these shoes. Thank you for letting me test them for R4W.
