Nike Air Zoom Alphafly Next% 3 Men's Running Shoes – Laser Orange / Indigo Burst / Citron Pulse

Nike Air Zoom Alphafly Next% 3 Men's Running Shoes

Fine-tuned for marathon speed, the Alphafly 3 helps push you beyond what you thought possible. Three innovative technologies power your run: A double dose of Air Zoom units helps launch you into your next step, a full-length carbon fibre plate helps propel you forward easily, and a heel-to-toe ZoomX foam midsole helps keep you fresh from start to 26.2. Time to leave your old personal records in the dust.

Atomknit Upper

Providing your feet with outstanding comfort and support, the Alphafly Next% 3 utilises a new Atomknit upper construction. The materials throughout the upper of the shoe provide a contoured fit, with improved multidirectional containment and breathability. The minimalist fabric sits close to the foot to ensure a dynamic, lightweight fit ideal for racing, whilst perforations within the fabric increase airflow, creating a better, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. The breathable upper allows cool air to flow into the construction while simultaneously allowing hot, humid air to escape so you can remain cool, dry and comfortable at all times. The uppers also feature notched laces, offering a more secure and soft lace-up system for a locked-in feel that works alongside an integrated knit tongue with lofted padding to ensure a secure fit, while alleviating lace pressure.

ZoomX Midsole

The Alphafly 3 utilises a ZoomX midsole for optimal cushioning. Nike's ZoomX is lighter, softer and more responsive than any Nike foam, designed to maximise speed by delivering greater energy return. ZoomX was derived from a foam traditionally used in aerospace innovation and applied for the first time in performance footwear. The ZoomX midsole in this shoe is lightweight, providing exceptional comfort and protection for your feet. The foam construction also delivers impressive energy return, giving you the propulsion needed from a racing shoe. Alongside this are two visible Zoom Air units in the forefoot, which assist with more energy return. A full-length carbon plate is also integrated into the shoe, delivering a snappy sensation with each stride. The carbon plate has been made slightly wider than previous versions to provide increased stability, helping you smoothly transition through every stride and tackle turns confidently.

Durable Rubber Outsole

Designed using data gathered from hundreds of runners, the Alphafly 3 outsole provides plenty of traction. The soles have different angles of traction, placed in areas where needed most, providing grip from toe-off through to every phase of your stride. The durable rubber ensures a strong grip, protecting itself from damage and users from losing control.
