Our Verdict
Nike Vomero Plus
adidas Hyperboost Edge
The adidas Hyperboost Edge is a better shoe than the Nike Vomero Plus for most runners. With a softer, bouncier feel and a lighter weight, the adidas handles long runs and daily miles comfortably while still managing the occasional faster workout. The Vomero Plus is the steadier of the two, though, and its more rockered heel will appeal to heel strikers who want smooth landings and fluid transitions. The Nike shoe is also available in wide versions.
