Nike Alphafly 3 Volt Fast Pack

Built for: Race day and your fastest sessions of the block.

Full-length ZoomX foam, a carbon Flyplate, and two Air Zoom pods under the forefoot — three systems returning energy on every stride, in a shoe that weighs around 201 g. The Alphafly 3 is the most advanced racer Nike sells.

Why it works

• Full-length ZoomX midsole — Nike's lightest and most responsive foam, now molded as one piece for a smoother transition.
• Carbon-fibre Flyplate runs the length of the shoe, stiffening toe-off and driving you forward.
• Two Air Zoom units under the forefoot load on landing and release at push-off.
• Atomknit 3.0 upper: thin, breathable and water-resistant, holding the foot at speed without adding weight.

Race-day details

• Surface: Road, race courses
• Best for: Marathon, half marathon, race day and fast tempo
• Drop: 8 mm
• Weight: ~7.1 oz / 201 g (men's US 9)
• Ride: Aggressive and propulsive — built for pace, not for easy miles
