Smooth stride, city-ready style. Diadora’s Equipe Nucleo packs a lively DD Anima midsole into a low-drop (5 mm) daily trainer that feels light, cushioned, and quick from warmups to long runs. A breathable mesh upper and durable rubber underfoot round out a ride that just flows.

Why Equipe Nucleo works for daily miles

  • DD Anima superfoam: engineered for high cushioning with a “High Rebound” compound that boosts midsole responsiveness by ~30% while cutting weight ~20% (vs. prior EVA blends). :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
  • Low-drop geometry: 5 mm drop encourages a natural, easy roll on road or treadmill. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
  • Engineered air/nylon mesh: breathable two-tone upper with supportive overlays for a secure lockdown. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
  • Duratech 5000 heel rubber: wear-resistant compound at high-impact zones for long-lasting grip. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
  • Light on foot: Men’s ref. weight ~275 g / 9.7 oz (UK 9). :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
  • Removable insole: orthotic-friendly footbed for custom support. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Fit & sizing

True to size for most. Between sizes or prefer thicker socks? Consider a half-size up. Expect a secure heel/midfoot with a foot-friendly forefoot for natural splay.

  • Category: neutral cushioned daily trainer
  • Drop: 5 mm (low-drop feel) :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
  • Use cases: easy runs, steady daily mileage, treadmill, city loops

Ride & build

  • Underfoot feel: soft landings with energetic rebound for comfortable cruising.
  • Outsole mapping: high-wear rubber placements in heel/forefoot for wet/dry grip.
  • Upper details: padded tongue/collar to ease lace pressure; smooth lining for sock-friendly comfort.
  • Style factor: timeless Equipe lines that go gym-to-street without trying.

Care

  • Air-dry insoles/uppers after runs; avoid heat (dryers, radiators, hot cars) to preserve foam and rubber.
  • Brush off dust; spot-clean with mild soap and water only.
  • Rotate with a second pair during heavy weeks to extend midsole life.
