Previewed in the “Prototype” colorway, the Nike ZoomX VaporFly NEXT% 3 is defined as an all-around racing shoe that can help runners cover any distance. Key details on the model include a smoother transition, improved stability and more energy return in the Vaporfly 3’s lightweight design. It will also include a reductive ZoomX midsole geometry and Flyknit yarn upper.
Several design features in the model’s first colorway pay tribute to the Nike Running team’s development journey. Graphic text on the midsole nods to the number of Flyknit upper iterations the team tested (57) and a dedicated weartester’s identification number (20126-23). The iconic drop Swoosh against the all-White silhouette pays homage to the first-ever VaporFly worn at a Breaking 2 test event in 2017.
