For me, this is the most versatile shoe for all distances. I prefer a lower stack with more ground contact and the V4 just feels dialled in from the off. Super fast and an absolute joy to run. Race day essential :)

Nike Vaporfly 4
A light, efficient design feels propulsive for all 26.2.
The Vaporfly 4 is a lean, mean, mile-eating machine. We trimmed weight in the midsole, outsole and upper from the Vaporfly 3, without sacrificing performance. The result is a lighter, more propulsive all-round racing shoe that's trusted from the mile to the marathon.
Full Speed
A full-length carbon-fibre Flyplate provides a propulsive, racing feel.
More energy return
Nike ZoomX foam, our most responsive foam, just got faster. Running from heel to toe, it unlocks even more energy return than before thanks to a slight midsole reduction, giving you a bouncy feel.
Engineered mesh
Engineered mesh offers improved comfort and a disappearing feel on your foot. It helps reduce the weight of the shoe while supplying a more consistent fit.
Light Feel
See how the midsole bulges out by the heel? We designed it that way to help reduce weight on the inside of the foot to give you a more stable ride.
What's new?
- Lighter upper, midsole, outsole
- Higher plate angle
- Lower heel-to-toe drop

GREATEST 1mi-10k road shoe ever made. Totally worth the money.

My thirteen year old son got these shoes and he absouloutly loves them. He said that they are pefect for training fast or racing.You can use them on grass but they really do not feel the same. On the road there is no better shoe to run fast in. My son thinks that Nike has taken the Vapor Fly to the next level.
Sehr gut, aber . . .
Schiene - 02 Oct 2025
Da das Design eine Sache des Geschmackes ist, bewerte ich dieses hier mal nicht. Ein Straßenracer für den Wettkampf, und genau das erfüllt er sehr gut. Das Obermaterial ist gut obwohl vom Vorgänger und Alphafly das ist besser, aber der Schuh ist bis zum Marathon sehr bequem. Die Dämpfung ist etwas flacher als gewohnt aber funktioniert wie immer (Zoom X) spitze. Einzig das besondere Gefühl von Speed wie bei den ersten beiden Versionen fehlt. Beim Marathon kann es sein (je nach Läufer) dass einem die Dämpfung in der Ferse gegen Ende der Distanz ein wenig zu wenig ist. Ansonsten ein Top Racer der gut zu den Füßen ist und für schnelle Wettkämpfe zu empfehlen ist.

What's new?
- Nike's most resilient foam just got a little better. The midsole design saves weight and unlocks even more energy return by reducing foam where it isn't needed.
- The lab-tested and runner-validated, curved, full-length carbon-fibre Flyplate delivers a propulsive feel and unlocks more leverage from the foot and ankle.
- The blown rubber outsole delivers a dynamic combination of traction, durability and cushioning. The softer material compresses to conform to the road for elevated traction and a smooth transition.
- The engineered mesh upper increases comfort and fit consistency, while contributing to the overall weight savings of the shoe.


"The Vaporfly 4 is the ideal Vaporfly. Nike nailed it. I love running fast in this shoe".
