Has anyone done any research on the benefits of Nike Air?

I've always been curious if the gas in Nike "Air" has actually made for a better shoe. Has anyone studied this in a non biased way. (Nike scientists making "factology reports" don't really count.) Do runners get less shin splints because of the padding? Or is it just a gimmick?
Answer:
I work for a competitor. All the technology works, but an important factor is the fit of the shoe and how a person runs. Yes runners get fewer shin splints from the air or any other shock-impact or shock-dispersion technology, like air, gel, grid, etc. They need to get a shoe that fits well, is designed for their weight and gait type (overpronation, underpronation, normal, etc.), and change it out every 400-500 miles.
If you're a runner, go to a run-specialty store and get great advice for the right shoe for you.
no
i dunno.. but i bought a pair of nike air just because they looked like decent running shoes.. and i LOVE them. my feet feel so much better after wearing them
Yes it benefits those poor athletes buy their mansions and defense attorneys for when they get arrested and their Ferraris
ive done lots of reserch.i found there are no benifits to nike air.it is one of the biggest lable scams ever!
Of course its just a gimmick... they got the idea from michael jordan which they thought was like walking on air...But yah anything can be proven so they are right in saying it can prevent injuries. How effective it is? ask the Airheads! Anyways why would you want to pay so much for AIR when you can get it for free?
The majority of the 'air' in Nike air trainers are in the heal of the shoe, shin splints is a condition were the muscle and the shin bone loosen. Mainly caused by the ball of the foot striking hard surfaces, if you are suffering the only way to recover is complete rest from high impact exercise. I suffered when running on roads/tracks so now only run on soft grass and artificial turf. When the pain comes back i stop running and swim instead, as that is very low impact.
No idea.Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Nothing other than water in between. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%. Chew each morsel at least 32 times to activate ur body to generate signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.Take light exercises and brisk walks regularly preferably twice a day.U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time. Do not be in a hurry.
