Our verdict

The NIKE REACT MILLER WHITE BLUE CW1777 100 UK 9 has become a legend for many, many reasons. And no, we're not just talking about its trendy colorways and ever-known nickname. It has taken its former performance runner soul to the next step, offering an incredibly comfortable, bouncy, yet stable ride to sneakerheads' daily lives. Additionally, its durable and grippy outsole gave us as much confidence as its retro-futuristic style. But be careful, its solid structure features stiff materials that will require a break-in period before this Nike pair warms up to you.

Who should NOT buy

If you're done with break-in periods and you just don't want to hear anything at all about blisters or uncomfortable rubs, you might be better off forgetting about the AM Plus. It features a rigid structure that could potentially hurt your feet at the beginning. But don't worry, there are other Air Max pairs that we've found comfortable from the very first minute of our wear tests: the AM DN and the AM 1!

There's another important issue with this shoe: its toebox lacks durability. In other words, if you tend to wear away your trainers in this area, we believe it would be better for you to find a more resistant pair. Apart from the 2 models we've already recommended, the AM 95 brand new with original box Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 38 Boys CZ4178-002.

Cushioning

Heel stack

The AM Plus really is Plus! The massive Air units it features at the heel made our calliper open up all the way to 39.8 mm. Which, trust us, is a lot! This makes it way higher than average, so our feet didn't ever feel the ground underneath. In fact, this shoe was so comfortable that we could only focus on how incredibly soft and nice the experience was.

Forefoot stack

Even though most shoes feature a really tall heel and a smaller toe area, this Air Max breaks the rules with a massive 28.1 mm forefoot stack. With some more Air units shielding our feet from any kind of impact, the Plus is absolutely ready to face any kind of unwelcoming city surface.

Drop

The incredibly tall and comfortable stack of this Nike pair left us with a standard drop of 11.7 mm. Why? Well, because the difference between the heel and the forefoot stack height is not that big. Even though the rearfoot still feels a little bit more elevated, your feet won't notice anything weird.

Midsole softness

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

Our durometer returned a comfortable reading of 20.0 HA when we measured this shoe's midsole softness. This already means the foam used is softer than average, but do you know what makes it all even better? That's right, the cloud-like Air technology it hugs!

This translated into an incredibly comfy and plush ride. We really enjoyed wearing this Air Max during our wear tests, no matter if we had to run errands for the whole day or if we could just chill and have a drink with some friends. Whatever the situation, it just felt like the right choice every time!

In terms of fit, the Nike NIKE REACT MILLER WHITE BLUE CW1777 100 UK 9 felt as anticipated on foot. No tightness or dead space for our medium-width feet which was confirmed by the shoe's gel replica as well. 

Applying our calliper to the widest area of the mould (the area between the big toe and the pinkie toe), we got a standard reading of 92.5 mm. Exactly on par with the average.

However, if you are someone with wide feet or who has a strong preference for more toe space, we recommend the nike men roshe one port wine black Dominique Jones in the Nike Hyperdunk 2010.

The rounded toebox shape of the NIKE REACT MILLER WHITE BLUE CW1777 100 UK 9 felt nice and accommodating around our toes and we experienced no pinching on the sides. With a calliper reading of 70.9 mm near the big toe, this Nike sneaker proved to have more toe room at the tip of the toe than most other lifestyle kicks.

Because of that, it felt more comfortable for prolonged walking and standing as our toes were able to wiggle freely.

Toebox height

On the flip sid, the shoe's toebox may feel a little snug from the top as it showed a lower-than-average vertical space of 25.4 mm. And because the uppper mesh has no give whatsoever, you may not be able to lift the toes as freely as in some other kicks.

In our opinion, it's not a deal-breaker at all. Just something to be aware of in case you have any issues with your toes or toenails.

Stability

Lateral stability test

This former performance runner didn't let our ankles go anywhere! Its stiff structure prevented them from overextending themselves. This translated into a safe ride that made us feel confident even if we had to run a little bit from time to time.

Torsional rigidity

Part of the confidence and stability we felt during our wear tests is thanks to the armour-like structure of this Air Max. When we took it to our lab, we couldn't give it any less than a 5/5 on our torsional rigidity test, as it was impossible for our fingers to twist it.

Oh, won't you look at that! This brick of a shoe didn't let us play with it at all. Its ribcage-like outer structure kept the shoe's shape at all times. But there's a price to pay, as we had to endure a break-in period until the materials of the Plus gave in!

The heel follows pretty much the same path. Even though it scored 4/5 on our stiffness test, which is slightly lower, this is just because of its sides... the back feels like a wall!

In other words: you can forget about any kind of heel slippage, as the structure of this AM will keep your feet right where they should be. Nevertheless, the rough structure might cause some unpleasant rubbing, so beware!

At 107.2 mm, we can't say this Air Max has a wide midsole in the forefoot. In fact, it's even narrower than average, which means we won't get any extra stability from a spacious landing base.

Custom Nike Snakeskin Air Force 1 Shoes

This Nike pair is stiff; that's it. Look, it got the highest score possible in our torsional rigidity test, and now on our flex test... it proved once again that in its previous life it might as well have been a piece of armour.

Our flexibility machine recorded that it takes 18.9N of force to bend the kick by 30 degrees, which is notably more than it takes on average. That is to say, the AM Plus needs a break-in period so its materials can warm up. We verified this during our wear tests: after some hours of use, the shoe will start following the moves of your feet better. Just be patient!

Weight

Don't let the mesh upper and kind of slim look of this Nike pair deceive you... it's not a lightweight shoe! It didn't make us drag our feet when we were walking around town, but it definitely doesn't feel like a couple of feathers either. At 14.04 oz/398g according to our scale, the Plus might make your feet feel tired sooner than expected if you wear it for long hours. Especially in comparison to other Air Jordan Nike AJ Legacy 312 'Lakers'!

Breathability

When we put this shoe in front of our LED, it shone through its upper quite easily! It's not like we could find any big gaps or anything, but the forefoot and midfoot areas were still illuminated.

Кросівки nike md runner 47-48 31см 95 JD Sports Womens Silver Charcoal Blue nike kobe 9 elite anthracite anthracite ftb showed us what having top-tier breathability really meant, whilst the NIKE REACT MILLER WHITE BLUE CW1777 100 UK 9 paled in comparison!

Still, the Nike pair let quite some smoke get through its toebox, so we can't say we're unsatisfied with its ventilation levels. In fact, during our wear tests, as long as it wasn't as hot as the sun, our feet felt fine and sweat-free!

nike air max plus breathability 3 22587675 main

As you can see thanks to our microscope close-up, this Nike model features an outer layer with big gaps followed by an inner one with smaller gaps. This structure doesn't let the air flow freely, and it has earned the Plus an average 3/5 on our breathability test.

Durability

Toebox durability

The mesh of the AM Plus... got totally meshed up. At 5K RPM and with 2N of force, our Dremel didn't need much time to obliterate the material. Consequently, this Nike pair could only get a 1/5 on our toebox durability test.

Heel padding durability

Contrary to the norm, the heel padding of this Air Max showed better durability than its toebox. This material tends to be more fragile, so we were pleasantly surprised!

It was nothing otherworldly but, as you can see, it endured our 4-second torture, so we decided to give it a well-deserved 3/5 on our durability test.

Outsole durability

Keeping its word, this Air Max model's outsole showed great durability. Even though our Dremel went all out at 10K RPM and with 2N of force, the rubber proved its resilience. In fact, the dent left by the tool was only 0.7 mm deep, which is way lower than average!

Outsole thickness

With such a high score on durability, Nike didn't need to go for a thicker outsole for this Air Max, as it would only add weight to the shoe. When we measured it, our calliper returned 4.4 mm, which is lower than average but nothing for us to worry about.

Misc

Nike Air Force 1 White Pink | Grip / Traction

The former performance runner soul of the NIKE REACT MILLER WHITE BLUE CW1777 100 UK 9 shines on its outsole. To be honest, we found its grip quite good, as its waffle pattern bit pretty much every urban surface we stepped on. And it did it easily!

nike air max plus outdoor 06 22587789 main

As you can see, there are multiple rows of lugs throughout the whole forefoot. In order to reduce the overall weight, the midsole lacks this rubber coverage, which later comes back at the rearfoot. But this lack of support surface didn't make us lose balance, as these Nike trainers feature a whale tail TPU arch that kept us stable as a table.

Price

The trendiest AM Plus is definitely not on the cheaper side. We believe it's full of advantages, such as its comfortable ride and cushioning and stability technologies. Even though we do believe its price is fair, you might not want to spend that much on a pair of trainers, and that's totally fair.
