Designed for fast court movement
- Heel Air Zoom cushioning: A responsive heel unit adds a springy, supported feel through long matches.
- Nike Claybreaker technology: The outsole is designed to help improve traction and reduce clay buildup, with added grip in the forefoot and midfoot for controlled sliding.
- Lightweight herringbone outsole: A new rubber compound helps reduce weight while the herringbone pattern supports dependable court grip.
- Supportive midfoot plate: A firm plastic element helps stabilize side-to-side transitions, cuts, and pivots.
- Secure foot frame: The midfoot structure wraps the foot and supports power transfer during aggressive movement.
- Engineered mesh upper: Lightweight mesh maintains durability in high-wear areas around the toe.
- Full midfoot fit band: The lacing system helps you fine-tune the fit for faster, more controlled movement.
From baseline recovery to a hard slide into the corner, the Vapor 12 is designed to keep your footwork feeling quick and contained. Its court-specific construction also makes it suitable for padel surfaces when you want traction and stability without unnecessary weight.
