  • Great Sneaker

    JohnMarkL548899096 - Jul 01, 2025

    Beautiful shoe. Light as a feather and great ‘bounce’ in the step. Cant wait to run with them

  • Light weight racing shoe

    Nike User - May 19, 2025

    I did not notice much “energy recovery,” so I feel the benefits are from the shoe’s light weight. Cheaply made, in my opinion, as the foam winglet on the back of the shoe tore off during the Boston Marathon. Otherwise, this model is much better and fits better than the Vaporfly I ran Boston in last year.

  • So squeaky!

    Mike72535933 - Jun 08, 2025

    Gorgeous shoe. But insanely squeaky to walk in. It’s ridiculous.
