The tongue is thin and unpadded, but comfortable. There is a slightly softer lining around the midfoot where the laces attach, which is intended to hold the midfoot better, but didn't seem to make any difference. I quite liked this unusual shape, but it might not suit everyone. The ankle opening is cut very low on the sides, rising slightly higher at the rear than other shoes. The upper is very thin and breathable, with no padding except around the ankle opening. I've found that it's a big improvement, allowing my toes to move naturally and engage for toe off, as well as reducing the possibility of blisters.) When you have some worn out shoes, you should try cutting open the toe box. (I recommend cutting open the toe box of virtually all running shoes, with the exception of a few shoes like some Altra shoes. The shape of the Zoom Streak does not match the human foot, and narrows in the toe box, and I had to cut open the toe box open to prevent toe problems. The forefoot has slightly raised lugs in the Nike waffle pattern. The outsole covers all the contact patches and provides good grip. While it does have a TPU shank in the midfoot, this doesn't do anything, good or bad. The Zoom Streak is remarkably flexible, especially in the forefoot area. The inclusion of the Zoom Air unit with the single density foam works well, providing seamless cushioning. There is no noticeable 'arch support' to cause problems. The 4mm drop is a tad higher than I'd like, but isn't an issue. However, if you compare the rear foot cushioning with the Hyper Speed, it seems that the Zoom Air does not do as well as the Asics Gel. This combination is makes a well cushioned shoe, with quick bounce back.

The Zoom Streak has a small Zoom Air unit in the heel, along with a single foam density over the full shoe. With a list price of just $75, it's also a bargain. This is a wonderful lightweight shoe that provides comfort and cushioning, and is a worthy competitor to the great Asics Gel Hyper Speed. 6 A Comparison with other Recommended Shoes.5 Visualizing the Attributes of the Nike Zoom Streak LT 2.3.5 Nike Zoom Streak LT and Asics GT 2000.3.4 Nike Zoom Streak LT and Hoka Clifton.3.3 Nike Zoom Streak LT and New Balance RC5000.3.2 Nike Zoom Streak LT and New Balance RC1600.3.1 Nike Zoom Streak LT and Asics Gel Hyper Speed.
