I don't care one bit about speed , all I want is comfort and to look after my joints these are the most comfortable shoes I've ever walked in it's like walking on a cloud.
As a gentleman of a similar age, you should know better than to start a sentence with "Back once again..." and not finish it with "...with the renegade master!"
I don’t run longer than 7 or 8 miles these days, but I still love having the Invincible 1 in my rotation. I got the bright yellow colorway on sale for $130 a year ago and have done 200 bouncey miles in them.
You’re right, there isn’t anything else that feel like the invincible runs. Only reason I’m hesitant to p/u v3 because v1 and v2 had durability issue in 3 different colors, the midsole separated from the upper and/or ripped were the outsole was glued. 2 pairs only made to 40miles and sent back, last pair 105miles, sent back. Maybe the new painted sections on v3 will help with better adhesion I dunno. If cheap enough, I will give it a shot I’m sure 😅
After watching your and Sagasu Racings reviews I used up some of those Earth credits and picked up a pair today. Went on a 10K run and absolutely love this version of the shoe.
I dont think they have such a narrow use - I love bouncing around in my 2's. Short daily runs 4 miles ish where pace doesnt matter or flattish 10 milers getting the miles in. They are fun. Boing!
Bought for re-starting my training after some quite severe Tibialis posterior injury(the inside of my shin),. It really helps me keep the pace down. I Have a tendency to be bad at pacing, and I am especially bad at running slow. Now that i need to run slow to re-gain my fitness without injury this is amazing.
Thanks Edd. Have utilised a runner’s knot on this and just about got a lock down achieved now. Just putting the shoe on and walking around there’s massive heel slip. Have to say - run at the right sort of pace and this shoe is really enjoyable. It isn’t like the Novablast that I just find some comfortable and easy to run in.
I'm sold on the Cloudsurfer 7 for easy day runs as it also has the capability to put in some faster efforts, just love that shoe, best of 2023 so far for me, I had V.1 of the Invincible Run and they felt like running in a soft brick
I am using the Invincible Run 2 and can relate to the "quicksand" feel. Legs feel like they loose strength in a run, but are never sore. The ZoomX bounce feel didn't last past 100mi but they sure are comfy for daily walking. I think they need to offer less logos on the shoes too, they look silly enough without extra colourways and the stickerbomb of swoosh
I haven't tried the V3, only the V2. And it was my go to long run shoe...but after getting the Asics Nimbus 25, I find myself reaching for the Nimbus over the Invincible. It's close, but it just seems like the Nimbus is just a tad more versatile.
Great video! I’ve been wearing for about a week and a half, I love the comfort on foot and long runs (10k) they’re the only shoes that my feet don’t hurt in after the 10k. I do have flat feet and should be wearing stability shoes but the comfort of these makes running for me so much easier. These shoes are not good at cornering for me lol my foot seems to slide a lot in the shoe around corners and I use a runners knot. Thanks for reviewing the shoes, I love seeing what other people’s thoughts are on these. 😊
This is definitely the last time I’m buying Nike running shoes. I bought these V3 at a Nike outlet at $97 after discounting. Ran 6 miles today in them and noticed wear on the outer soles already. Cheap materials.
I really enjoy my v2 for easy recovery runs and long run … I ran faster paces in them and it works too…probably my best shoes of 2022 had them for 96€ and dicided to buy another pair for the same price just before they all have been sold out 👏👏👏😉🇫🇷 merci beaucu😂
Yo man I love your reviews😅 The way you are talking with humour and the personal opinions always crack me open. I am waching your reviews for few years now and I never describe. Only reason is because I simply thought I did it. Well I did it now. Have nice day
I very much enjoyed your review, had me giggle a few times. I just ordered some of these due to me still being pretty heavy and my bones have been taking a pounding. Had the Adidas solarglide 6 for 2 months but the foam has pretty much flattened now and my runs are heavy on the impact. Lost 3st so far and down to 18 1/2st so will need these until my weight gets much lower
I get them Thursday so will have them for this Sat park run. 🤞hopefully they are stable enough as my form probably is far from ideal. However, if I have any trouble I will try the boost 👍
@@EDDBUD I wanted to report back after trying out the Invincible 3's and unfortunately have to say that after several runs and £175 later they actually started to cause me pain in one of my tendons behind my right knee and developed a muscle knot in my right quad. I will say though that it definitely reduced the pain in my shins though. Anyhow im sure it's mainly because they were causing me to run differently and use different muscle groups and that over time my legs would have got stronger but the pain in the back of the knee was too much atm so went back to my solarglides for now and strangely after switching back I had no pain
It does work for me. But did get rubbing and blisters on the mid foot. Seems to be from the insole as it seems to overlap and curve up slightly. Blister socks has solved it.
Well, I have to say it can work pretty good even at faster paces. I did a fartlek with some 3.55/3.50min/km reps and it felt a lot better than V1. Very comfortable on easy run as well.
I knew I disagree with about the the invincible run 3 I was the world biggest fan of the v1/v2 but I couldn’t use the the v3 it didn’t matter what I did with the laces I got heel slip On the few runs I tried them before sending them back they felt a lot less bouncy then the v1/v2 and they also felt less soft and way stiffer Glad they worked for you edd If they work as well as first 2 did for me then like you say there’s nothing in the market like them I just hope Nike make the next version usable for me and hopefully with more of the characteristics I loved about the v1/v2
I just bought a pair after so much complains on heel slippage. Someone suggested to skip the 2nd last lace holes and go straight to the last ones. Worked perfectly for me and no heel slippage at all.
@@livegreatalways tried and could reduce heel slip but not totally get rid of it plus I really didn’t like that shoe anyway it just lost all the magic of the first two versions Luckily I stocked up on v1/v2 I also got the new balance sc trainer v1 which is kind of like a super charged invisible run with a plate in and I love it so I wouldn’t go back to the invincible run unless the next version feels more like the v1/v2 But glad the v3 worked for you anyway and If it’s as good for you as the v1/v2 was for me your love it 510k on my current pair of v2s.
I prefer nimbus for a very specific reason, im gonna get worth of every single penny from it. Nearing 150 miles no wear at all, better lockdown and more comfort from the upper, for me.😅
Now then young Sir, as you know I thought V2 was running on trampolines and no good for me. However with V3 having a wider sole plate - making it more stable for me and appearing to be more heel striker friendly, the shoe works for this slightly older runner who needs that max cushioning and yes I do agree with you it is far too expensive as it is really one trick pony - but really like this version as it makes running fun (isn’t that the point). Excellent review as always Ed and keep up the good work 👍
Don’t think the underfoot is all that different. It’s mostly an upper change with what appears to be more midsole. They have simply shifted a little of the foam and placed more rubber in there
I'm not knocking on Nike at all but all my Nike running shoes, I bought all of them at a discounted price. I've never paid any for their full price. For me I can wait for them to go to outlets, I don't have to have them right away. Don't get me wrong. Just did a half marathon on my alphafly 2s and got a pb on them and for the 1st time, I didn't get or have any issues/blisters. And I really did enjoy running on them. I use my vaforfly for my triathlon races and no complains as well. It's just that I really can't justify buying them for full price.
Agree with your comment about zoomx without a plate for a running shoe. That said, find a way to do a drop in insert in a jordan 1 or 3 and I will gladly allow nike to take all of my money.
My primary reason for buying this shoe would be to save my knees and alleviate knee pain, for shock absorption purposes, do you think Invincible run 3 fits the bill?
The heel on these are gaping unfortunately. Though when I run I don’t feel it and if you tie it down well it can minimize that. Maybe heel striking will feel it more.
When I was your age I could run in any shoe I wanted. Now, being 20 years older and having some metal replacement parts in my legs the Inv 1,2 and 3 are the best running shoes available. If you keep running livelong with the usual annual miles you will remember me in 2043 ....
I have some invincible 2s and I almost never put them on. They are great for when your feet or legs hurt but they feel terrible for everyday and tempo runs. I do like the new look way more, the 1s and 2s look like some prescription shoes or something.
Didn’t have an issue with heel slip. However I’ve had blisters on the left foot on the arch. Such a shame because they are comfy. I use them now for gym and easy treadmill now
I had a brief romantic fling with the Invincible 2 until the squish, not the swoosh left my knees barking with runners knee. It was fun while it lasted. Unrequited ❤️ The Zoom X without a plate or shank in the midsole for some is like getting on a mechanical bull. You're trying to keep your form steady, but your mechanics just go awry from the incredible bounce. Perhaps Nike should learn from Sketchers, who they like to sue a lot with the popular Maxroad model. A supercritical foam, high stack partially plated shoe that has just the right combination between firmness and softness and can handle more types of runs in a more friendly way. I just purchased the Topo Cyclone 2, pebax without a plate. My first Topo. Am I gluten for punishment😫 No, because of the much lower stack, lesser pebax, lower drop, and a lesser rocker geometry, the chemistry works ideally and in tandem. A plate would ruin it. Very responsive and versatile.The wider toebox also gives you that extra balance and stability. Criminally lightweight. l'm so excited to start running in them. It will be replacing my Endorphin Speed 2, which I find the fit way too restrictive. Speed 3 too soft.Tom Petty, now you talk'n my era! Brilliant, but without his right hand man and co- writer, guitarist extraordinaire Mike Campbell, we would have been missing out on some great songs and great guitar playing. Check out Tom's first band, Mudcrutch, that he reformed in 2016, when he was the bass player. 2 albums came out of it. Obviously, it has a Heartbreakers vibe to it, but in a more layed back way. Good stuff like your reviews. Keep it up.👍
Where can you get a V2 now. I did manage to get a pair off eBay for a good price and looked to see if I could get another pair but seen to be few and far between now.
Sorry to hear v3 has lost some of the v1/2’s unique borderline unstable squashy pop. It’s like when the gritty and challenging first album’s a hit, they add a top 40 producer and all the interesting corners are smoothed off to make it more palatable to the general public. If you haven’t heard the “60 Songs That Explain the 90s” episode about Tom Petty’s “It’s Good to be King,” it’s worth checking out. It really made me appreciate his work more as well as realize just how prolific an artist he was.
I walk only, at least 10 miles per day. Hardly any influencers speak much of distance walking ( which yes I know y'all are runners). Do you think this shoe would be comfortable for walking 10 miles per day? Thanks
Unless it comes along at a big discount I'll be leaving this on the shelf. 2 weeks till Bristol half! Will you be heading to a swanky wine bar after to celebrate with a pork pie and their best bottle of vin ordinaire?
Its so wierd. I walk around with this shoe and i have so much heel slippage. But when i ran with it for an easy run theres no heel slippage at all. I was mid foot striding.
just added the Invincibles V3 into my rotation today! I found the shoes like running on Marshmallows not sure if that is good or bad. The ride was nice.
It’s good to see I’m not crazy around the fit. I think this is a MUCH better and more Invincible as I said in my own review. However I do find it much LESS niche. Great as always Edd!
For someone who loved the invincible 1 and 2 but hated the invincible 3 and can’t use it anyway because of heel slip what shoe would you recommend getting instead of the invincible 3 ? Luckily I still have some v2s but just wondering what you would pick if the v1/2 becomes unavailable
2:08 Take solace in the fact (it was revealed to me in a dream) that 'people' like this will be condemned to an afterlife of being pelted with the shoes they tried to put on this way for an eternity.
Hi ! I just bought the shoes a few days ago and they fit me very badly when I run. Alot of Pain in the bottom of the foot and on the sides. Do you think I have to use the shoes for several days before I'm comfortable?
@@EDDBUD heavy runners normally aren't fast lol. I'm 5'9 200lbs and not all muscle. I have to run different, wear different shoes compared to 120-150 lb runners. Running weight is the difference. October will be my 3rd year running, and feel better than when I was 278lbs.
I regret my purchase of this shoe. It is so different to v1 and 2. It doesn't feel like ZoomX at all. It's way too firm for my liking, the fit is not the best, it weighs a lot and it feels like it too and what irks me most is I paid near full price for them. There are so many better shoes out there for daily/long/recovery runs. Biggest buying regret of 2023 for me.
It's a strange shoe. Sure the foam is unique.....but who really needs a shoe this soft? It's also not a very attractive shoe. Hopefully they do better next time.
Got to say I do think it looks good. I also like that it’s soft for them longer runs or recovery runs. But do prefer the V2. I had a bit of rubbing on the under mid foot in the V3
@@EDDBUD I got the V1 for not very much. 60 something earth. Nice big mattresses for knackered knees. In a strange fit I wore them on a trail run the other day in a monsoon. Not the best idea. And if you get them puddle wet, they're wet for quite a while, and best left outdoors if wifes hidden hairdryer.
I like that you put your running paces in the video
Good thing to note. Though pace is relative to the runner
I don't care one bit about speed , all I want is comfort and to look after my joints these are the most comfortable shoes I've ever walked in it's like walking on a cloud.
You can’t get more comfortable than these. Check the Vomero 17 too if you want that
I love the vomero 17

The issue with squash is that there’s no major propulsion to it. Also for a very slight man like me I feel I have pillows on my feet!
That fly audio on my headset spun me out! Our blow fly season is finished now and been replaced with brass monkies.
A little sound goes a long way. It’s wet here now but humid so loads of nasty flys.

I have about 10 miles on mine and the sole is peeling away from the rubber sole.
Really?!
@@EDDBUD Yup, kind of bummed.
Its so wierd. I walk around with this shoe and i have so much heel slippage. But when i ran with it for an easy run theres no heel slippage at all. I was mid foot striding.
Same here. Nothing noticeable whilst running for me
Hey Edd, for adidas, you're wearing size UK 11.5, but what is your foot length and sizing in cm?
Some adidas I was an 11.5. But recently I seem to use 11.
Hi great review thanks 🙏. I was just curious what they are like for running in the rain, do they let in a lot of water? Thanks
A little. Better than the v1/2 for water absorption though.
@@EDDBUD cheers!
Hi Edd ;) I would like to try this shoe .. but paying £160 is something crazy ! I’ll have to wait for a while for a better price ;)
Try the V1 or V2 for much cheaper. Just got my 2nd pair of the V2 for $80
Wait for the sales. They will happen
@@EDDBUDwhen will the sales usually happen what is the best month. Thanks
What would be the opinion on this shoe against something like the NB More v4 from a long-run / comfort style shoe?
Yet to try the more 4
Comparison with Glideride3 needed. :)
Sadly don’t have that shoe
just added the Invincibles V3 into my rotation today! I found the shoes like running on Marshmallows not sure if that is good or bad. The ride was nice.
Yeah it’s a good leg saver
Ill probably pick this up once it gets discounted. Excellent review, as always thank you.
Good idea Ryan. Be wise with those credits
Despretly looking for new runners.
Can't decide between asics Novoblast 3 tr or New Balance 1080 v12
The blast is more versatile
The blast is more versatile
Hey Edd! is there a way I can get the Nike Invincible 3 Style: DR2615-401 Size:EU43?
Best search it on Google or check StockX
I tried that shoe on today and it's very uncomfortable, there's a big drop from heel to the forefoot it's like a cliff.
It’s a big shoe with loads of cushion. Not for all
@@EDDBUD A lot of cushion in the heel but not much cushioning in the forefoot.
Don't you like the Asics Superblast ?
Never tried that shoe
What about the on cloudsurfer Edd? I think it's similar under foot 🤔
Not tried that shoe yet
@EDDBUD it's the best shoe you should buy now and try. And u can do all the comparisons.
It’s good to see I’m not crazy around the fit. I think this is a MUCH better and more Invincible as I said in my own review. However I do find it much LESS niche.
Great as always Edd!
Yes it didn’t happen for me at all!
Concerned about the outsole on these, i wore through the heels on my V2's after 130km (Nike Refunded me). Do you think the V3's are less durable?
I think it’s less durable than the v1 and 2.
@@EDDBUD Thats a shame, Loved running in them.
For someone who loved the invincible 1 and 2 but hated the invincible 3 and can’t use it anyway because of heel slip what shoe would you recommend getting instead of the invincible 3 ?
Luckily I still have some v2s but just wondering what you would pick if the v1/2 becomes unavailable
There’s nothing quite like it. But I think Nike have overpriced the shoe
2:08 Take solace in the fact (it was revealed to me in a dream) that 'people' like this will be condemned to an afterlife of being pelted with the shoes they tried to put on this way for an eternity.
A bit like a time cycle with dr strange but a massive already tied shoe.
Found them for $130 on sale, you think its worth it?
I heard the heel slippage is a thing, i need them for daily long walks instead of running.
I didn’t experience any but many did.
@@EDDBUD I got Pegasus Trail 4 instead, they were bit cheaper and they seem to be equally comfortable
Any thoughts on these ones i got?
Hi ! I just bought the shoes a few days ago and they fit me very badly when I run. Alot of Pain in the bottom of the foot and on the sides. Do you think I have to use the shoes for several days before I'm comfortable?
Most shoes I would say don’t get much better. Are they the wrong size? Which brand?
My Nike shoes always seem to degrade faster than other brands. I could run through WWIII in any of my ASICS and they’ll still be fine…
It’s the rubber I reckon.
@@EDDBUD I think so too
The invincible run 3s might be my favorite running shoes ever
do you have pair of it?
Good shoe but a bit too squashy for everything for me. That’s where the primex comes in 👊👍🏼
Tom Petty - legend.
Yes a true rock and roll legend
Color way, please?
This one way just black and white
OK because I looked online and they said one was coconut white and black looks the exact same
@@FREDRICKG85 This one was an original launch version may be discontinued now
I have flat feet! Does this inv3 helps?
No arch in that shoe if it’s helpful.
Is it true to size for wide feet?
It’s true to size though not sure it’s ideal for wider feet.
Hi! What about the Pegasus?
Compared to this? Firmer but more stable
@EDDBUD thanks.
One more question.
Nike airmax series aren't good for run?
@@ChrisKeyman Airmax is more a casual shoe. The Pegasus is a better option
@EDDBUD I am over 40 and I need to start to run.
What is better option for me?
Pegasus or invisible 3 ?
I have to protect my knees
So sounds like a shoe for us "heavy" runners
It’s got lots of cushion. But I don’t think it’s great for pace
@@EDDBUD heavy runners normally aren't fast lol. I'm 5'9 200lbs and not all muscle. I have to run different, wear different shoes compared to 120-150 lb runners. Running weight is the difference. October will be my 3rd year running, and feel better than when I was 278lbs.
Do you prefer Gel Nimbus 25 or this shoes?
This one
I regret my purchase of this shoe. It is so different to v1 and 2. It doesn't feel like ZoomX at all. It's way too firm for my liking, the fit is not the best, it weighs a lot and it feels like it too and what irks me most is I paid near full price for them. There are so many better shoes out there for daily/long/recovery runs. Biggest buying regret of 2023 for me.
Can’t say it feels that different to the others after 100miles. Almost exactly the same
People who put their shoes on with the laces already tied are psychopaths.
🤣
100+ miles and the shoe isn't even available for me yet. Lol
Where about’s are you JWB?
@@EDDBUD South Africa.
I’m a total Nike fanboy but this shoes was a disaster, terrible heel lift or loads of pain from doing lock lacing. Worst shoe of year.
My word! Though we are all different. Hope you were able to send it back
Agree worst Nike shoe in long time,total ruination of the invincible line.
Yo

1st!

It's a strange shoe. Sure the foam is unique.....but who really needs a shoe this soft? It's also not a very attractive shoe. Hopefully they do better next time.
Got to say I do think it looks good. I also like that it’s soft for them longer runs or recovery runs. But do prefer the V2. I had a bit of rubbing on the under mid foot in the V3
As I say, a niche shoe for specific parts of harder training
Ppl who can't get to the beach to train on sand.
@@bendigeidfranemmanueljones5694 That’s a good suggestion!
@@EDDBUD I got the V1 for not very much. 60 something earth. Nice big mattresses for knackered knees. In a strange fit I wore them on a trail run the other day in a monsoon. Not the best idea. And if you get them puddle wet, they're wet for quite a while, and best left outdoors if wifes hidden hairdryer.
Everything was great …it’s just the price 🥺…just wait discount 🫣
Yes grab it on discount
