Nike Dragonfly 2 Elite
Ultralight foam and carbon plate help unlock your race-day speed.
Our most dominant distance athletics spikes are back at the starting line, ready to break even more world records. Now loaded with an ultralight ZoomX foam and a responsive carbon plate, the Dragonfly 2 Elite can help unleash a new level of speed you'll want to save for race day. It's donned by the fastest 5K and 10K runners in the sport, who are ready to reach new heights.
New yarns and engineered upper enhance breathability and comfort. The upper's contouring fit gives a disappearing sensation that is built to go the distance. Heel is reinforced to help improve stability.
Full-length ZoomX foam, Nike's lightest and most resilient foam, delivering a high level of energy return with every stride you take.
Four permanent spikes help reduce the weight of the plate and create a wide, flat platform for a stable connection to the track.
Carbon unlocks plate response and helps reduce weight. The curved design gives you a propulsive feel.
A slightly wider midfoot and forefoot compared with the previous iteration improve the feeling of stability on straights and especially around the turns.

Hot, fast, expensive, probably worth it for competitions

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The title says it all. This is a shoe for a competitive mid-distance track runner, not for regular mortals. Last year's pair tore at the shoe lace hole. Being careful this year not to make the same mistake again as these shoes are made out of whispers, mesh, and carbon. They're worn for competition.
Dragonfly 2 Elites Pretty Good

Shoes pretty good main difference from the regular dragonfly’s is the cushion on the feel. It definitely feels a little smoother and lighter. My only critique was that I don’t always need new spikes but I love some of the older colorways but the colors change so quickly that sometimes you just have to get whatever color.
Fastest shoes on the market!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They do not hold up well at all. They are almost disposable. My son has to get a new pair every 4 races. That being said, they are the fastest shoes on the market. These are racing spikes, so obviously, they aren’t designed for comfort.
