Nike Air Trainer One Sneakers for Men

Introduced in 1987, the Nike Air Trainer 1 athletic shoes are leather athletic shoes with cushioning that absorbs impacts without stressing the joints. A rubber outsole is thicker at the rear than the forefoot. These lightweight sneakers have a midsole that offers you responsiveness and flexes while training. A feature that stands out in these shoes is the Velcro midfoot strap that gives the kicks a snug feel. The midfoot strap is also responsible for supporting and stabilizing your foot. The upper is made from synthetic leather. However, there are two variations of the trainers. One is made from leather and the other from a synthetic mesh. The mesh variation has a minimalistic design and more ventilation. Further, the lacing system of the Nike Air Trainer 1 athletic shoes is similar to a drawstring.

The midsole offers you premium cushioning. The thick foam used in the midsole features air cushioning, a thick compartment of pressured air. This unit is designed to distribute any pressure in the shoes evenly. Phylon has been used in the midsole since it is durable and responsive. An Air Max cushion has been added to the outsole preventing any incidences of instability. The rest of the midsole is covered by a firm, spongy foam designed for flexibility.

The outsole of these mid-top sneakers features a durable rubber that is designed to distribute weight evenly. Additionally, the compound used in making the outsole improves traction and quick movements. Although it may seem fragile, the outsole is sturdy, and the thin forefoot improves flexibility and foot movements. The outsole also has trident-like grooves at the forefoot. The grooves increase flexibility and toe movements. Moreover, the outsole's rubber extends to the toe box providing a protective cover to your toes. Small lugs are fitted at the midfoot to create a suction-cup effect.
