Nike Alphafly 3
$285
Fine-tuned for marathon speed, the Alphafly 3 helps push you beyond what you thought possible. Three innovative technologies power your run: A double dose of Air Zoom units helps launch you into your next step; a full-length carbon fiber plate helps propel you forward with ease; and a heel-to-toe ZoomX foam midsole helps keep you fresh from start to 26.2. Time to leave your old personal records in the dust.
Energy Return for Your Marathon
Two forefoot Air Zoom units combine with ZoomX foam to store and return the energy back to you, powering every step.
Propulsive Feeling
A full-length carbon fiber plate delivers a propulsive sensation that helps you smoothly transition through every stride and tackle turns with confidence.
Cushioned Ride
Fully connected ZoomX foam creates an ultralight and cushioned feel, helping you stay fresh and comfortable from mile 1 to 26.2.
What's New About the Alphafly 3?
The Alphafly 3 is our lightest Alphafly ever, featuring a slightly wider carbon fiber plate for increased stability, a fully connected ZoomX foam midsole for smoother transitions, and an all-new Atomknit upper designed for improved multidirectional containment and breathability.
More Benefits
- Notched laces offer a secure but soft lace-up.

Sole is damaged in 1 half marathon.

Great comfort, squeaky shoe
mrakira415 - Aug 20, 2025
These are super comfortable and I love the look. The only reason I took off one star is because they are noisy running shoes. I get a little squeak I think from the zoom air bag in the front of the shoe. I had the same issue with my 2023 Nike Tempos I was replacing with these. I love the upper, but I think I’m going to skip the air bag on my next running shoe.
Clouds with a Squeak!
Nataly3 - Aug 20, 2025
Super comfy for running — honestly feels like walking on clouds. But when I walk in them, they squeak with every step. Kinda embarrassing in quiet places. Great for workouts, not the best for everyday wear.
