Decked out in retro check prints and upholstered with a homely, shaggy curtain flair, this premium version pays homage to where it all started, selling sneakers through the sliding door of a run-down blue-and-white delivery van with nothing more than a dream. Premium laces and old-school graphics from the back of Nike's archives highlight a design rooted in Nike nostalgia.
Nike reworked the leader of the super shoe pack and tuned the engine underneath to help you chase personal bests from a 10K to marathon.
What's new about the Vaporfly 3?
An updated thin outsole rubber uses less material without sacrificing durability, which helps reduce outsole weight and thickness. This allows for extra millimetres of ZoomX foam underfoot and a smoother transition through your stride.
Product Highlights
- Propelling you forwards: A full-length carbon fibre flyplate provides a stiff and propulsive feel.
- Speed for miles: Nike ZoomX, Nike's most responsive foam, just got a little better. Running from heel to toe, it unlocks even more energy return than before, giving you a springy, bouncy feel.
- Stable ride: See how the midsole bulges out by the heel? We designed it that way to help reduce weight on the inside of the foot to give you a more stable ride.
- Feel the breeze: Specifically selected Flyknit yarns and engineered zones in the forefoot bring a new level of performance to the Vaporfly. Ample breathability around the toes combined with soft, yet supportive yarns deliver Nike's most customised upper for the Vaporfly. The result is a softer, cooler design that contours to your foot.
- Light padding on the tongue helps reduce lace pressure at the top of your foot.
- A new Waffle outsole pattern with perforations saves weight and delivers multi-surface traction in various weather conditions.
- Offset heel seam helps reduce friction in the heel area.
