Carbon fiber Flyplate and enhanced grip fuel your trail-racing speed.

Manifest your mountainous best, when the trail ahead is skiddy and uncertain. Our all-new championship trail racing shoe melds our best speed components from the running world with what you need to plant your flag first at the finish line. It offers peak performance, sleek speed and endurance for those who want to summit nature’s playground.

Trail Speed

A carbon fiber Flyplate, layered between ZoomX foam and a knit fabric-wrapped midsole, gives you a propulsive and springy feel. It helps you stay fresh to continue pushing the limits of speed.

Grippy Traction Pattern

Vibram exclusive Ultrafly outsole made with Vibram Megagrip has a sticky rubber that works with a chevron lug pattern. They combine to provide grip when going uphill or downhill, even in wet weather.

Grippy Lugs

This exclusive outsole also features Vibram Litebase and Traction Lug Technologies. The result is a lightweight, durable outsole that gives you great grip wherever your run takes you.

Stable on the Trail

Flat bottom and minimized cross rocker give you optimal stability on trail terrain while heel-to-toe rocker provides smooth transition. Engineered zones of support in midfoot help keep you secure.

Durability Where You Need It

The fabric wrap on the midsole helps to cushion the foam from the elements and abrasion of being on the trails. Hard-wearing abrasion-resistant materials provide durability.

More Benefits

  • Vapor Weave mesh on the upper provides breathability.
  • Foam midsole adds cushioning.

  • Is the Ultrafly shoe without peer?!

    NikeDad38W - Oct 17, 2025

    My size 10 was NOT available at the Nike Factory store, but there are many sizes there! Just a pro tip, the dusty cactus color is at an amazing, “once a year price” at the factory store ! The Ultrafly shoe runs very TRUE to size, in my experience! The Ultrafly shoes are both a thing of beauty to behold and a feat of engineering, to boot ! I was so bummed that the cactus color was not in my size, but the sales associate at the store front desk hooked me up with the crimson in my size ! The vibram soles are totally grippy and the toe box is quite roomy. Only Big Foot might find them a tight fit! I cannot wait for the shoes to arrive at my home! The upper is super lightweight, though there are some shrubs and thorns that might tear them. Nike engineers “wrapped” the ZoomX on the mid-sole sides, and the wrapping looks pretty durable to me, but, I defer that assessment to folks who have run in them for a few months. The ultra plush Zegama shoes may be kinder on your feet in running distances over 15 miles, I would guess. The Kiger 10s may have an edge on super technical courses with difficult descents - I would guess. But, for an “all round” trail running (and hiking) shoe, I think the Ultrafly shoe is as close to peerless as you can probably get! I totally recommend the shoe! I am astonished over the quality of the design and the build and the presentation!

    The bright Coral color way is a head turner! The carbon plate gives the sole its own identity making the shoe beyond responsive and light as a feather. These say trail race but they rip on black top just as well.

  • Amazing comfort & responsiveness!

    friedrobot - Aug 01, 2025

    The best all around trail/road shoe I’ve ever worn. Comfortable, stable, breathable, responsive, just perfect. I could wear these shoes all day, everywhere.

Performance and speed for those who want to summit nature's playground.
