Instant cure for my prolonged knee and shin pain. Not even a warm up, break in, buffer period. Just instant relief and performance enhancement.
Gain So Much More

I’m 55 and when I run too many miles my knees ache. But with these new Alphafly 3s I feel like I can run much more without my legs feeling beat up. And immediately AFTER a run, I don’t feel like I have to sit around. I feel like I have more energy and spring to do other things. These shoes are priceless to me.

Marathon speed to push beyond what you thought possible
Our lightest Alphafly yet features a ZoomX midsole to help cushion impact with the road and Air Zoom units to return your energy. A wider carbon-fibre Flyplate helps deliver a propulsive, stable ride, while the midsole and outsole are now fully connected for improved transitions.

Speed for all
We rigorously tested the Alphafly 3 in the Nike Sport Research Lab on all types of foot strikes. The result is a widened footbed and fully connected outsole that enables a better fit and natural heel-to-toe transitions.
