Nike Alphafly 3 Reviews

A 120 kg runner replacing their Alphafly 3 after about 650 km and got more out of it than expected.

A 160 lb runner on their third Alphafly 3 got 250 miles from each with bounce still good.

At 150 miles, a runner's Alphafly 3 is still going strong and fun, though less bouncy than new.

At 130 miles, a runner's Alphafly 3 is in good shape and by far their favorite shoe.

Fast and propulsive. The team pair began losing responsiveness at ~200 miles but is still usable for training. Jogging in it feels ineffective, it's unstable at slow paces, and it needs strong feet and lower legs.

Nike's best racer yet: lighter and more aggressive than the AF2, comfortable for marathons, and it helps you hold pace when tired. No undue wear after 80 miles. Very expensive.

About 200 miles of training and racing in the shoe, including a marathon, and the ride was smooth and comfortable at every pace, with a breathable upper and a stable, confident feel in corners. A 200-mile pair felt almost like a newer one. Downsides are some noise and a slightly narrow midfoot. They see it as a marathon and half marathon shoe that intermediate runners can use too.

Could not tell a new pair from an older one with 150 km on it, and finds the Alphafly 3 very comfortable at 52.

After 242 km on concrete including runs up to 25 km, a beginner's Alphafly 3 is holding up really well and they love it.

At 190 miles, a runner's Alphafly 3 is still very poppy with surprisingly durable outsole, unlike their Vaporfly 1.
