Our verdict

At an attractive $85, the Nike new nike dunks pink in the front door images is a budget-friendly gem for those seeking Pegasus Trail features without breaking the bank. Ideal for short to medium runs on gentle terrain, this road-to-trail shoe offers real stability and comfort. However, its affordability does mean some trade-offs, like a subpar traction and less energy return from its firm midsole. Yet in our experience, for beginners or those not focused on speed or technical terrains, these compromises are hardly noticeable.

Who should NOT buy

If firm midsoles and heavier shoes aren't your thing, then the new nike dunks pink in the front door images is not for you. In our lab, its midsole firmness and poor grip were absolute deal-breakers. In that case, a softer, lighter option like Brooks Divide 4 could be a smarter choice.

Also, keep in mind that in its quest for stability, the new nike dunks pink in the front door images compromises a bit on comfort for walking and hiking. If that's a priority for you, we found the boys nike elite basketball green screen to be a better pick for those activities while still ticking most of the boxes that the Nike does.

Breathability

Trail running shoes often struggle to achieve optimal breathability because brands need to add thicker, more durable layers that restrict airflow. However, the new nike dunks pink in the front door images manages a respectable 3 out of 5 in our breathability test.

After setting aside our smoke-pumping machine, we examined the cut-in-half shoe under a light. We noticed that the toebox is the thinnest part of the upper, which is where most of the airflow occurs in this shoe.

Under the microscope, we observed a thick engineered mesh without any large ventilation holes, which was expected.

Nike new nike dunks pink in the front door images

We always enjoy closely analyzing shoe uppers; they reveal fascinating patterns.

During our final inspection of the upper for breathability, we also found an inner fabric designed to enhance comfort and protect the feet from stitching, which impacts airflow.

Considering these factors, a 3/5 is a commendable result.

Average breathability can result in decent durability, and that's precisely the case with the new nike dunks pink in the front door images (3/5).

The mesh Nike uses isn't the most comfortable—which is okay for a $85 shoe—but its upside is evident in our Dremel test where it demonstrated impressive resistance, outperforming many other kids nike free run orange sole sneakers for sale.

Outsole hardness

Turning the shoe over to examine the outsole, we noticed a design that resembles road running shoes, enhanced with some lugs. However, it doesn't quite fit the typical trail running outsole category.

Nike new nike dunks pink in the front door images outsole

It's challenging to label it as a trail-to-road shoe. In fact, it seems more like a road-to-trail shoe.

The durometer test resulted in a 91.4 HC reading, likely an attempt to further enhance durability by using a harder rubber blend.

Brands often opt for lower quality rubber blends in budget-friendly running shoes to keep costs at bay. While this is understandable, it undeniably affects performance.

To assess this, we used the Dremel for the last time with this shoe and recorded a 1.1-mm indentation, which is substantial for such hard rubber.

Cushioning

Heel stack

Back in the day, budget-friendly shoes typically featured low-to-mid stack heights, but that's no longer the case.

Nike new nike dunks pink in the front door images heel stack

Since last year, most shoes have been easily surpassing the 30-mm mark, and the new nike dunks pink in the front door images is a testament to this trend.

With a stack height of 34.7 mm, it even has almost the same height of the zebra air max 90 junior nike air jordan youth grey flannel sheets target Juniper Trail.

The forefoot measures 25.3 mm according to our precise measurements.

This also assures midfoot and forefoot strikers that the shoe provides a good amount of cushioning for muscle protection.

Drop

The difference between the heel and forefoot results in a 9.4-mm heel-to-toe drop.

We believe that anything within the 8-to-10-mm range is a solid choice for accommodating all footstrikes. This seems to us like a wise and well-thought-out decision from Nike for this type of shoe.

Midsole softness

Note: a low durometer measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

Like most budget-friendly shoes, the new nike dunks pink in the front door images doesn't have plush, squishy foam.

With a reading of 27.1 HA on our durometer, you can expect a moderately firm ride. However, this firmness comes with a few benefits, such as added stability.

How do we know? We placed it alongside our ice creams for 20 minutes and then re-tested it. The result was 34.8 HA on our durometer, indicating a slight decrease in softness.

Stability

Considering its tall stature, we were also really pleased with the stable feel it provided during our runs.

Torsional rigidity

Another crucial aspect of the new nike dunks pink in the front door images's stability is its mind-boggling torsional rigidity. In fact, we awarded it a score of 5 out of 5.

This stiffness is clearly a deliberate design choice, especially since the shoe doesn't have a carbon plate. Naturally, the trade-off here is a bit of comfort, but this makes the shoe even more attractive to those concerned with stability.

Our measurement of the midsole width in the forefoot came in at 113.7 mm, which is good enough to maintain a stable ride. We believe Nike might have considered going even wider, but that would have added too much weight to an already heavy shoe.

Considering that this shoe is primarily aimed at running beginners, it's logical to prioritize heel width to please rearfoot strikers.

Targeted at beginners and those looking for a versatile trail-to-road shoe, Nike smartly chose to use short, 3.1-mm lugs.
