Nike Wildhorse 7

One of Nike 's most iconic models for trail running continues to add updates to its consolidated trajectory, the Nike Wildhorse 7 lands in the market ready to continue maximizing the trail runner's experience in each of their outdoor adventures regardless of the type of terrain or obstacles that you can find in each mountain route.

In terms of performance and functionality, these renewed Nike Wildhorse 7 maintain a continuity with respect to their previous version, and keep the essence of being an all-terrain trail running shoe, whose main arguments in favor are cushioning, stability and safety in every kilometer. However, it is obvious that the improvements of these Wildhorse 7 are more focused on the aesthetic aspect, and at the same time it presents a new redesign of its upper to improve relevant aspects such as ventilation, support and fit. In RUNNEA we proceed to unveil all these details.

Nike Wildhorse 7's most outstanding novelties

As we already saw in the previous Nike Wildhorse 6, this new release of the Nike Wildhorse 7 kepps on including a React foam midsole, replacing the characteristic Zoom Air unit of the predecessor versions. As you know, the benefits of the React material applied in sports footwear translate into a softer and more comfortable stride than the more standard foams, but it is also capable of increasing the lightness, and even a better response of the model.

But undoubtedly one of the keys to the construction of the midsole of these Nike Wildhorse 7 is its rear area, which has become its main hallmark, with the inclusion of the innovative Cushlon Ring system, that extra cushioning in the heel area, which adds a greater degree of stability and security, keeping the foot in its place, but without restricting movements. In short, the responsive and lightweight cushioning of the Nike Wildhorse 7 is Oregon's trademark for the most demanding trail runners.

Then, in the chapter of novelties, these Nike Wildhorse 7 feature a redesigned upper. The upper's technical mesh has been updated with a more porous fabric, and Nike s product developers have opted to meet the demands of the most demanding trail runners, and have sought to improve one of the critical points of the Nike Wildhorse 6, increasing the ventilation capacity of the model, and adding more freshness on the inside.

It should not be forgotten that in this strategic point of the shoe, the Wildhorse 7 includes the Dynamic Fit system in the midfoot area, adding more comfort and support to adapt to the rockiest runners. Another interesting detail is the leather toe cap reinforcement, which increases resistance and durability.

On the other hand, the Wildhorse 7 comes with a kind of gaiter in the ankle area to keep out dirt and debris.

Traction and grip on multiple surfaces

Of course, one of the keys of these Nike Wildhorse 7 all-terrain mountain shoes is the design of the outsole, which features a multi-directional traction lug pattern. A high abrasion lug pattern that improves the level of grip for both uphill and downhill sections.

Two other features of these renewed Nike Wildhorse 7 are the segmented plate that increases the degree of protection and the heel loop that makes it easier to put the shoe on and take it off.

It is clear that with the Nike Wildhorse 7 on your feet you will have the option to face the most extreme and hardest workouts or races, because this trail running shoe offers reactive cushioning; a better ventilated upper, more resistant and with greater support; in addition to traction and adherence for different mountain terrains.

By the way, the new release of the Nike Wildhorse 7 does not come only because it is accompanied by the release of another new update of the Nike Terra Kiger 7, another of the most emblematic models of the Oregon brand in trail territory. While the Terra Kiger 7 features a lightweight and fast model to offer a secure and durable feel for the most technical trails. For their part, the Wildhorse 7 's main strengths are stability and security with responsive and reactive cushioning.
