Nike Free Run+

Nike and running fans rejoice, the sweet Nike Free line has an animal-friendly one amongst them.  Actually there may be multiple but this one I just happen to stumble across.  The Run+, like its kin, are meant to simulate running barefoot, which is supposed to be more natural, and hence, better for your feet, knees, and back.  It’s also designed to feel more like running barefoot, which means it is super breathable, bendy, and lightweight.  I for one have never tried it, but it sounds like a hell of a good idea.  Of course, they are animal friendly as well.  The uppers are made entirely of mesh and a synthetic overlay.  The swoosh is etched by a frickin’ laser (no leather swoosh!).  Glues, as per Nike’s claims, are not animal based.

Click below for more pictures.  There are numerous colorways, but I am too lazy to post them.  Click on the shoe stores for those.

Available at Zappos (men) and Finish Line (men and women). in the updated version of the Free Run+, the Free Run+ 2: men’s and women’s.

Also, see the Free Run+3 in men’s and women’s.

    Oooooh. I was looking for Vegan running shoes yesterday night. I want to get started on running even though I do not really have any motivation for now. So I decided that if I had good and nice shoes, it would be a good way to get some motivation.
    And when I read your article I was just so excited. I have to wait 2 weeks before being in an area with some shoe stores around, I will try them in one of them, and then order them online, if they fit me well, and I will comfortable wearing them.

    Hey Lou, good to hear from you! Yeah, those Nike Free’s are pretty sweet. I’m not sure if this particular model is still widely available, though Nike does still have a lot of different makes in the “Free” line. Just make sure you check out the tag before buying it to make sure there’s no animal products in there!
