Nike Alphafly 3

R 6,399.95

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-fibre plate helps propel you forwards 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-fibre 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-fibre plate for increased stability, a fully connected ZoomX foam midsole for smoother transitions and an all-new AtomKnit upper designed for improved multi-directional containment and breathability.

  • His very 1st pair

    Sheryl442231253

    I ordered these for my husband. So far, he likes them. These are his very first pair of carbon plate sneakers. I ordered a pair 1st, loved them, and then ordered his. He's worried they won't last the full 300 miles, but we'll see in a couple months. We both feel that our feet and lower legs do less work in these. So to keep balanced, our goal is to switch carbon and minimalist sneakers every other run. The tote bag we both received in our shoe boxes was a nice treat, but may I suggest a shoe horn instead? These sneakers are tough to get into. We both have to use a shoe horn to get feet inside. Also, they're loud. We go clop, swish, clop, swish....We sound like a horse and buggy. Although, it's a rhythmic sound so it kind of keeps us calm. One more thing, he always wears size 10 1/2 in shoes, but deliberately goes up a half size in sneakers to prevent black toe nails.
