The Nike React Infinity Run is the latest running shoe in Nike’s React line-up. It’s designed for comfort and protection on the everyday runs, with a HOKA-esque stack height, a wide forefoot base and the biggest wedge of React foam we’ve seen in any shoe yet. There’s also a rocker motion going on and a silhouette that’s more than bit of a nod to faster shoes in Nike’s range such as the Next%. But when I read that Nike had created a shoes for 3-10 mile runs, I was dubious.
So is this just another niche shoe from Nike? Or has the React Infinity got something new to offer? Along with my fellow Run Tester, Nick Harris-Fry, we put it to the test to find out how these well-stacked shoe stacked up.
