Nike Vomero 18 Running Shoes
Given the size of the heel, you'd be forgiven for thinking Nike's Vomero 18 running shoes were designed for hardcore racers. Instead, their dual-density midsole of lightweight ZoomX foam and responsive ReactX foam is designed to give everyday runners the most cushioned ride possible. The upper is made from engineered mesh for breathability, while the plush tongue and lining boost comfort. On the bottom, the outsole sports a pod system with a new traction pattern for added agility and smoother heel-to-toe transitions. Now available in an eye-popping bright green, orange, and silver colorway.

The Ooni Halo Pro isn't just another mixer — it's a game-changer for home bakers chasing perfection. Engineered with professional mixing technology, it builds stronger gluten networks for dough that's stretchier, airier, and tastier than anything a traditional stand mixer can produce. Its dual-kneading action, featuring a spiral dough hook and breaker bar, ensures optimal gluten development for peak rise and texture. With a high-capacity, dishwasher-safe stainless steel bowl, 58-speed control, and a rugged shell built to handle serious torque, the Ooni Halo Pro is more than a mixer — it's the key to next-level pizza, bread, and pastries.
