Can I go straight from the Nike Structure 24 to the Structure 26 and skip the Structure 25?

Yes, but going Structure 24 to Structure 26 means taking one change in a single step: the Structure 25 is where the ride moved. The drop also goes 8 mm to 10 mm across the jump, so give it a week of easy running.

How much did the weight change across these two updates?

0.6 oz off in total, 11 oz to 10.4 oz in a men's US 9. The Structure 25 took it to 10.7 oz first.

Is the Structure 25 the better buy than either of these?

On paper it splits them: 10.7 oz against 11 oz for the Structure 24 and 10.4 oz for the Structure 26, on a 37 mm heel and a $140 list price. Whether that is worth chasing depends on what the Structure 25 update actually did, which the section above works through.

Did the Structure get taller between the Structure 24 and the Structure 26?

Heel stack went 22 mm to 38 mm, by way of 37 mm on the Structure 25. Drop moved 8 mm to 10 mm, which is the change your calves and Achilles notice.

Where does the Structure 26 sit in the Structure lineup now?

It is the current model, two versions on from the Structure 24 and the newest one you can buy at full retail.

Two updates and 4 years separate the Nike Structure 24 from the Structure 26. Net change: 0.6 oz lighter, 16 mm more heel stack, a drop change from 8 mm to 10 mm, a new midsole, $25 more at list. The Structure 25 is where the character changed, and that is the update Structure 24 owners notice first.

Or buy the Structure 25 instead?

The Structure 25 is worth a look only if you want the ride it introduced, because that is the update that changed the shoe. Buying it to soften the jump does not work: you would be adapting to the same change either way, just at an older spec.
