Product Reviewing: Nike+ SportBand used with Nike+ Footwear (Vomero+)
First impressions of the Nike+ SportBand and Shoes
The shoes (Vomeros) felt light-weight and very comfortable. The extra support and cushion system was instantly recognizable. I generally have trouble finding shoes to fit my broad foot, but the Vomeros provided me with a perfect fit.
The SportBand was very easy to use, although I did sometimes forget when I paused it!! The SportBand was comfortable and looked quite sporty. The technology that comes with the SportBand is easy to use even for those who, like myself, lack computer skills. Once you’ve set yourself up online you’re ready to go!!
Using the Nike+ technology during training for the event
Although I only used these products for a week prior to my run, I found they complemented earlier training and assisted in the final preparation stage. The shoes and SportBand were used to improve pace setting and general conditioning. The main sessions the products were used for were 5-10kms runs.
Event Day
The charity run I was involved in was a 92km run to raise money for Surf Life Saving Sydney Northern Beaches. The money raised is going towards an educational tour of the Cook Islands. The tour will provide much need aquatic training and education for their local community. The run started at Penrith and finished at Newport Beach. The run took approximately 13hrs to complete.
How the SportBand/Nike+ shoes performed on the event day
The shoes were amazing!! I never had any problems with my feet or legs throughout the event or the days following. The light weight, breathable shoe assisted in making the run easier and more enjoyable for me. In my past I have had numerous lower leg injuries and this was the first time in many years I have never had major issues.
