Womens Nike Air Zoom Alphafly Next % 4

Nike Alphafly 4

The Nike Alphafly 4 is built for runners chasing personal bests and looking to maximise performance on race day. Designed for marathon racing and long-distance road events, this lightweight carbon-plated racing shoe combines responsive cushioning, explosive energy return and a propulsive ride to help athletes maintain speed and efficiency over every kilometre.

At its core, the Alphafly 4 features an updated combination of ZoomX and ZoomX LT foam, delivering a lighter, springier feel with smooth transitions from landing to toe-off. The enhanced cushioning helps absorb impact and keep legs feeling fresher throughout demanding races, while the updated Air Zoom unit provides a softer, quieter ride with increased energy return. Additional cushioning beneath the curved forefoot further enhances comfort when pushing the pace late in a race.

A wide carbon fibre Flyplate runs through the shoe, creating a powerful forward-driving sensation while maintaining stability underfoot. This combination of responsive foam and carbon plate helps runners achieve an efficient, fast turnover when targeting marathon personal bests or competing at their highest level.

The updated Atomknit upper features open-hole mesh zones for improved breathability, helping feet stay cooler during intense efforts. Integrated midfoot cables provide a secure, supportive fit, keeping the foot contained when accelerating through race pace. With its remarkably lightweight construction, the Alphafly 4 is designed to help competitive runners make the most of their fitness from the starting line to the finish.
