With all the comfort and durability you'd expect from Nike—think padding and strap closures for added support—our winter trainers and shoes have you covered. Our GORE-TEX water-resistant technology features inner sleeves to keep your feet warm and dry, no matter how hard it rains. Non-marking rubber outsoles provide traction while stitched overlays up the style ante. Meanwhile, perforations on the toe maximise airflow—helping you stay comfortable during your workouts. For extra protection from the rain, look for winter shoes with high-cut collars. These styles help to keep out splashes, while still offering total flexibility. Since this is a sneaker marketed for the cold season Nike made an effort to make it as waterproof as possible. The forefront is made of a synthetic material with all the stitching hidden to make it harder for water to get in while not sacrificing style. The Nike Swoosh is embossed on the synthetic leather for the same reason.The ankle area features a waterproof nylon material that is indicative of the interior of the shoe in that area which is heavily padded, both to keep the foot warm and comfortable but also to wrap the shoe around your ankle and leave no room for snow or water to get in. This also makes the body warmth to be trapped in the forefoot to keep you comfortable during cold days. What I also noticed during this Nike Path Winter review is that, despite all this focus on the foot being isolated, Nike left the tongue free to move side to side with no stitching to keep it in place. Not a major issue but still there is a way to get your feet wet if you step in deep snow. I guess this is the point where Nike wants you to get a sneakerboot. There are pull tabs both on the heel area and the tongue which are certainly useful and give a nice touch to the whole design, matching with the branding present all over the shoe. Sole Unit Want shoes that'll take you from the street to the green? Nike winter golf shoes with grippy outsoles are made for the course. Think supportive, full-length foam midsoles that give you the extra support you need to progress to that last hole. For long days teeing off, opt for trainers with double-layered mesh uppers for a lightweight feel and a breathable finish. Plus, smart features like low-cut collars let your ankles move freely as you perfect your swing. It’s been a busy month for bolstered Nike boots, with co-branded Air Force 1 High GORE-TEX Boots emerging in multiple colourways, plus a couple of very similar looking AF-1 Highs minus the GORE-TEX flex. The Path Winter seems to hit a slightly lower price point, without sacrificing any of the style we’ve come to expect from the crew at Beaverton.
