Love the lightness, snappy toe-off and overall comfort. In short, the shoes are fast and fun. Didn't notice any trade-offs in comfort with the lower drop. The upper is amazing with a great lockdown. Running at sub 7min/mile pace is so much fun! Great job Nike.

The Vaporfly 4 is a mile-eating machine that just got lighter. We trimmed weight with a carbon fiber Flyplate and ultra-responsive ZoomX foam midsole to give you race-day speed without sacrificing performance. The result is a fine-tuned racing shoe that’s trusted from the mile to the marathon.

The Vaporfly 4 is a mile-eating machine that just got lighter. We trimmed weight with a carbon fiber Flyplate and ultra-responsive ZoomX foam midsole to give you race-day speed without sacrificing performance. The result is a fine-tuned racing shoe that’s trusted from the mile to the marathon.
Full Speed
The full-length carbon fiber Flyplate has a higher angle than the Vaporfly 3 and combines with a lower heel-to-toe drop to give you a propulsive feel on race day.
Lighter Foam
Nike ZoomX, our most responsive foam, just got lighter. Running from heel to toe, it unlocks even more energy return than before thanks to a slight midsole reduction, giving you a bouncy, feathery feel.
Less Weight
Engineered mesh on the upper offers improved lightweight comfort while supplying a more consistent fit. We reduced the size of the heel and tongue to save even more weight.
Light Feel
The midsole bulge at the heel helps reduce weight on the inside of the foot and give you a more stable ride. We reduced the weight of the outsole by using a thinner rubber compared to the Vaporfly 3.
What's New About the Vaporfly 4?
We made minor tweaks so you can enjoy major gains. We trimmed inessential weight in the upper, midsole and outsole without sacrificing performance.

Excellent shoes

Good shoes with excellent support during running. It provides you with a spring kind of support which propels you to a faster speed
Light weight. Look great. But hard wearing? Nope.

Super light. I mean feather light. Energy return is noticeable. Colour is great. Even when standing still you look fast. Fit is true to size they do feel quite flimsy but that’s the price for being so light. My only slight gripe is for the price the rubber is very thin hence I don’t think they will last long at all.

Full-Length Carbon Fiber Flyplate & ZoomX Foam
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 fiber 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 cushion. The softer material compresses to conform to the road for elevated traction and smooth transition.
- Engineered mesh upper increases comfort and fit consistency while contributing to the overall weight savings of the shoe.
