After a less enjoyable Vaporfly 3, I was ecstatic to try these on and immediately notice the similarities to the Vaporfly 2 which was previously my favorite Nike racings shoe. “Adding lightness,” in the words of Lotus, is the best thing you can do whenever you already have an incredible design. Laces have improved slightly, and are still the best on the market; these don’t stretch and don’t come untied. Durability is always the tradeoff with some foams, and is the only possible criticism of this pair.

Did my first run in these and I definitely was going super fast, I did size up as needed for running shoes and it was perfect. Gave me a boost of confidence for my upcoming half marathon!
