Nike Men's Odyssey React 2 S Street Running Shoes

Product Information

A Storm Tread wet rubber outsole delivers optimal grip on wet surfaces while maintaining the smooth, cushioned ride you know and love with React foam.

I can’t really say much other than that Odyssey React Shield 2 fit perfectly in just about every way you’d want. There are no extra eyelets you can use and if you wanted to put other laces in, you’d have to cut the toggle system. Based on testing with champion runners like Galen Rupp, React cushioning still feels like new after roughly 300 miles.

The Nike Odyssey React Shield 2 for men is a weather-resistant running shoe with tough, on-trend techwear style looks, just the thing for crushing a few miles on a typical British rainy day. Hey everyone, I’m a relatively new (20 months) but passionate runner training for my first marathon. My foot slipped in easily, plenty of room in the toe box, the upper is secure and breathable, the laces are a good length and tighten well to secure the shoe to the foot, and no issues with heel slippage. It also has several reflective details on the upper of this shoe, since Nike expects you to wear this shoe during different weather conditions and when you might be running in the dark.They have the same forefoot height of 18 mm, the same heel height of 28mm and thus also the same 10 mm drop. Although I like the Epic React foam, I did miss a bit of stability in the upper on the medial as well as the lateral side. One of the most recognisable logos on the planet, Nike’s famous Swoosh can be seen on every type of sportswear, but did you know that they started in running? You can put it underneath the insole, but it will sometimes pop out from underneath there and it might irritate your foot.

I think the upper is something that Nike does consistently well across all of their models except for the Pegasus Turbo 2, which I find a bit tight.There is only a slight difference in weight since the flyknit upper of the Epic React 2 is 10 grammes lighter. I liked the ride and I didn’t experience any hotspots with the upper, but on longer distances, the lack of stability and the narrowness of the shoe were an issue. However, I was sceptical of Odyssey React Shield 2 because I had never heard a thing about them, which is pretty rare for Nike running shoes.
