Ultimate vapor. Maximum fly. The Nike Vaporfly 4 is meticulously designed to be the finest road racing super shoe on the market. Of its equally elite siblings (the Alphafly and Streakfly), the Vaporfly boasts the broadest range by far. It's designed to be best for racing full marathons down to 10Ks, but don't hesitate to lace these stunners up for 5Ks or even 1 mile races and repeats.
This is a top-to-bottom update, so what are the key changes? Starting in the midsole, the reductive design trims foam where it isn't needed. This saves weight and frees more energy from the world-class ZoomX superfoam, providing an ultralight and energized ride. Not to be outshone, the increased angle of the curved carbon fiber Flyplate unlocks more leverage from your ankle to toe-off. Combined, these premium elements deliver incredible energy return and propulsion.
Continuing the updates, the waffle pattern outsole uses softened blown rubber for smoother transitions and better traction. Overall, this improved outsole is designed for an ideal balance of grip, cushioning, and durability. Completing the package, the featherweight engineered mesh upper helps overall weight savings while improving fit consistency and comfort.
All in all, the Nike Vaporfly 4 remains one of the best marathon racing shoes and arguably the top running shoe for races across a broad range of distances. Inspired by the best, led by pros, but built for all. Now step into greatness. The Vaporfly 4 welcomes all challengers and asks with a ready grin "wanna race?"
