I ran my first marathon in 4 hours 45 minutes in New balance 1080 v13. I highly recommend them. I tried the nike invincible 3 and novablast 4 in my long runs, but the 1080s were just perfect, comfortable and stable.
I just got the Nike Invincible Run 3 for long training sessions. So far so good, but hard to tell because my quads and glutes have felt so cooked lately. I gotta get over this feeling, no pain, just heeeaaavvy upper legs.
I purchased the Vomero 18 with high hopes, but had to shelf them. My calves and shins were so sore after each of three different 5k easy runs. I’ve heard such good things and really wanted to like them, but figured they just weren’t right for me.
I have run in the Nike Invincible 3 for past couple of years and been very happy. My understanding is the Vomero Plus has replaced the Invincible.
Is there any reason I should give these Vomero Plus a try if the Vomero 18 didn’t work for me?
Not OP but I have 135km in my Vomero Plus and I just lace them normally, but the only shoes I've had for do a heel lock lacing for is the Nike Invincible 3 and Puma Velocity 2
If only it was that easy.
Buy the SUX5000. Sure it costs $300, but it's the absolute best long run shoe for every single runner.
You have to actually like try them on and go for a run.
My favorite is the NB Balos, but it may be too soft for you . I also do long runs in the Glycerin 22gts which I don't like much, but some people love them. This morning I ran in an old pair of SC Elite v3's which I love, but they still bite my ankles even after almost 200 miles. I loved the Triumph 20's, but some people oddly enough find them unstable. I loved the Nike Invincible OG, but they ruined it by the time the Invincible 3 came around. Some people actually liked the invincible 3.
Point is don't obsess over reviews. Look at reviews, but then take a pair for a run and see how you like them. It's how they feel to you that is important.

Marathon workhorse, but loud and clunky at slow paces.
