Nike Alphafly 3: Redefine Your Racing Limits
Chase your personal best with the Nike Alphafly 3, a cutting-edge racing shoe designed for athletes who demand performance, speed, and efficiency over long distances. Engineered with state-of-the-art technology, this carbon-plated road shoe is crafted to propel you to new heights. Whether you're tackling a 5K, a half marathon, or the full 26.2 miles, the Alphafly 3 is your ultimate tool to break records and push boundaries.
Maximum Energy Return for Your Fastest Miles
The Alphafly 3 features a unique combination of two forefoot Air Zoom units and ZoomX foam, working together to store and return energy with every step. This dual system acts like a springboard underfoot, launching you forward and making each stride feel effortless. The ZoomX foam midsole provides lightweight, responsive cushioning that helps keep you feeling fresh and fast from the start line to the final stretch.
For marathoners and long-distance runners, this unparalleled energy return translates to sustained speed and reduced fatigue, helping you maintain your pace even in the later miles of the race.
Propulsive Power from the Carbon-Fibre Plate
At the core of the Alphafly 3 is its full-length carbon-fibre plate, a game-changing innovation that delivers a propulsive sensation with each stride. By enhancing energy transfer, the plate helps you transition smoothly through your gait cycle, enabling quick turnover and efficient forward motion.
The updated wider carbon-fibre plate in the Alphafly 3 also increases stability, allowing for greater confidence during sharp turns and uneven race-day conditions. Whether you're navigating tight corners on a city course or pushing the pace on a straightaway, the Alphafly 3 keeps you firmly in control.
Lightweight Cushioning for Endurance and Comfort
Long-distance racing requires more than speed—it demands comfort and endurance. The Alphafly 3’s fully connected ZoomX foam midsole creates an ultra-cushioned and supportive platform that reduces the impact of each stride. This seamless design enhances smooth transitions, so you can focus on your race without distraction.
At just 218 grams (men's UK 9), the Alphafly 3 is the lightest in the Alphafly lineup, ensuring you carry as little weight as possible over the course of your race. Combined with its optimized cushioning, the shoe delivers a racing experience that feels both fast and forgiving.
AtomKnit Upper for Breathability and Precision Fit
The Alphafly 3 introduces an all-new AtomKnit upper, engineered for exceptional multi-directional containment and breathability. This lightweight material molds to your foot, providing a snug yet flexible fit that enhances comfort during high-speed efforts.
The integrated knit tongue with lofted padding minimizes lace pressure, ensuring a secure fit without discomfort, while notched laces deliver a customizable yet soft lockdown. Every detail of the upper has been refined to keep your foot supported and ventilated, even as the miles pile up.
