Nike Alphafly 3 Proto

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, gaining insights from the largest-ever women's testing pool for a Nike racing shoe. The feedback from both elite and everyday runners ultimately improved the comfort of the Alphafly for all marathoners, from a widened footbed and fully connected outsole that enables a better fit and natural heel-to-toe transitions to softer yarns in the upper for less rigidity and rubbing.
