The shoes were also designed with a coated toe box that protects the shoe of any kind of spill, also there are no laces are attached to the sneakers.

Nike wrote on their website: ‘’The design confronts a range of medical-worker-specific challenges. A flexible drop-in midsole with Zoom Air heel unit and a heel fit so secure, it feels like a soft, snug hug.’’

‘’One can think of the Air Zoom Pulse as almost a traditional clog made athletic — all the arch and posture support of that industry favorite is augmented in the Pulse, with a smooth capacity for natural motion.’’

‘’And, of course, the shoe is also fabricated for the unforeseen peculiarities of life in the hospital. The coated toe box protects against any type of spill. Smooth surfaces present a unique challenge when designing for spills as well, and the shoe’s traction pattern solves for this by removing closed cells.’’
