Just wore these for the first time for a 7 mile marathon pace run, averaging 6:10 pace. Had high expectations for these shoes, based on friends who have already worn theirs. I was not disappointed. Within the first 10 yards of my run, these shoes felt exceptional. The first mile was downhill, and I could feel a lot of cushioning and springiness for each step. These shoes are fast, and it was hard to dial the goal pace in because they want to go so fast. I was very impressed with how each footstrike was cushioned, yet also provided a nice push off from my toe-off. I could see how these shoes could save your quads during a long downhill race like Boston. And perhaps also allow for faster recovery after tough tempo runs.
Although the shoes don't look or feel stable when walking in them, they are very stable for me when running at race pace. When your foot plants, it seems to sink in a bit into the cushioning, where it finds a stable position. Then the cushioning does spring your foot back at the right time at toe-off. I had trouble wiping the smile off my face for the first two miles of this run. I was that impressed -- more so than I've ever been for a running shoe.
After my run, I took the shoes off and put on my Zantes for a cooldown. The Zantes are my former favorite shoe, but the contrast was huge. I took a few steps and it was like I was suddenly running barefoot on concrete. Not at all comfortable compared to the shoes I just had on.
These shoes make me want to buy a second pair so I can do my faster workouts in one and then race in the other. Although I've only run 8.5 miles total in them, they already are showing some wear towards the outside and back of the soles. Mostly cosmetic at this point, like some paint rubbing off, but I'd be surprised if I can get 200 miles out of these before they lose their new shoe magic. But if you can afford them and need a little help getting that PR, these are totally worth it.
I normally wear 10s, but ordered a pair of 10s that were a bit too tight on my pinky toes. These are a little on the narrow side. So I sized up to 10.5 with another order and these fit just fine now. My feet are probably a tiny bit wider at the toes than average.
One of the nices racing shoes, but expensives. Still looking for a good replacer, because the foam is not the same anymore.
I love everything about this shoe. The plate I think helps my aged knees. I do not typically wear this shoe for a lot of training runs. It is the best mid distance Nike shoe I have run in, and I have been wearing Nikes since the late ‘70s.
I like them just as much as any other flats, but I'm not sure if my body actually responded to them. I think the speed is in your head.
While the hype certainly lived up to its advertising and results, my experience was less that desirable. The comfort and feel, not to mention the look, are amazing, I have to say the durability for the price tag is ultimately what did in my overall rating. Too much tech hype and not enough durability to withstand all of it!
very springy, but outsole wears fast
It made running easier and faster but was too expensive
This thing is unreal Like no other shoe. Just the right amount of cushioning and firmness. Feet come off the ground with more power, more air time. Best when running fast; slow jogging diminishes their efficiency. Fit is amazing. I have a bunion on right foot. Always hurts because most shoes are too snug. Not the Vaporfly. Whatever material they are made from stretches perfectly and feels great all around my foot. I'm old. These have lowered my times, but more importantly, made me desire to race again. Am using only for races, 5k to half-marathon. Expensive as all get out, these babies are worth every cent. They look cool and feed my ego with some much needed juice. Nike, please, don't stop making these!
The Nike 4 % are comfortable and provides much support during my runs.
Exceptionally light. Incredible running experience, very cushioned and bouncy ride. Whether the hype is true or mere placebo they certainly help you run fast times and recover quicker.
I love racing in these. It is questionable if they make me any faster but they are very comfortable and fast. The price is the only downside.
