Nike compares running in the Air Max 360s to "running on air," but the cool thing about the 360s is they look like you're running on air. The shoe is unusually light (less than 13 ounces), and the clear see-through "windows" on the sides of the sole let you look right through it.
EVA foam compresses over time and loses its cushioning ability, so Nike designers introduced Air technology back in the late '70s with the Tailwind shoe -- later made popular with the Air Force 1 and Air Jordan shoes. Nike designers replaced some of the EVA with small encapsulated air in polyurethane bags and created a Adidas Superstar Damen Schwarz lighter, more durable, and better cushioned shoe.

Since I'm a pronator, which means my foot tends to rotate inwards when I strike the ground, I typically look for well-cushioned shoes that provide stability. Cushioning is particularly important for me since I Nike Air Max 2016 Womens run on almost exclusively on asphalt or cement.
Durability is also important, as I've learned the hard way that when the foam wears out, cushioning decreases, and I'm more prone to injuries like shin splints. Not to mention, the less often I have to buy shoes, the better.
First off I noticed the 360s were much lighter than my current New Balance running shoes (with an EVA foam midsole). While the Nike sole is see through, it's thicker and you can't bend it or twist it the way you can with my EVA foam shoes.
The 360s fit snugly, especially in the heel. I don't have particularly wide feet, but had to fiddle with the laces a little before dialing in the right fit. I chose thinner socks than usual to get it just right. Best thing is that my foot didn't slide around in the shoe -- which happens often no matter how much I tighten the Nike Air Max Classic BW Womens laces. No heel blisters with these.
I ran a short two-mile flat route just to get the feel of them before hitting the harder testing course. Although the 360s felt a little stiff the first time, it only took a few runs before they felt snug and comfy.
I chose my high-impact running route to really test them. It's a 5.5-mile route that covers a variety of terrain: steep uphill and downhill, cement sidewalk, asphalt, uneven dirt trails and grass. The most significant part of my route -- and a great place to check cushioning -- is the steep downhill section that usually jars the heck out of me.
My steps felt cushioned without feeling too spongy. There's enough cushioning but not enough to feel like you're running on a pillow. The cushioning is more springy than fluffy, so you don't feel like you're wasting energy.
On the uneven sections Nike Air Max 90 Donna Rosa of my run, the shoes felt very stable. In my current shoes I brace my ankles a bit more on these sections, but the 360s felt more stable and allowed me to relax my ankles. The true test for cushioning was a steep half-mile downhill asphalt section at the end of my run. I'm happy to report Adidas NMD Femme the Nikes definitely dampened the impact better than my current shoes. I usually feel some aches and pains (usually my knees and shins) here, but not so with the 360s.
