Vomero 18 is definitely a slept on shoe. They had a sweet spot between 200-400 miles where they felt better than they had upon the first run. One of the better running shoes for walking.

I saw that Vomero 18 is more of a daily trainer, so that’s why got them.
I love the Vomero 18... I use the 18s for easy days... No complaints.

Whole vomero series of nike is very very underrated
Vomero feels nicely cushioned and quite nimble, and the cushioning feels consistent across the midsole, with a little more give at the heel due to the stack height. Feels really nice for walking too a
