I love this shoe so much! I have never been more passionate about a Nike shoe in my entire life. This shoe is supreme with premium cushioning! I have never felt another race day shoe quite like this gem! From heel to toe the transition is smooth and snappy with the most elite cushioning I’ve ever experienced! Worth every single penny. This shoe makes me feel like an Olympian! Hoping to hit a PR in this puppy.

I absolutely LOVE Alphaflys, but this version is unfortunately much worse than the earlier ones. I ended up having to return them which is nuts because they're my favorite shoe. They removed some of the fun bounce from before that was saving my knees for long runs, they also redesigned the heel in such a way that it gave me terrible blisters! I tried 2 different pairs in case one had a factory malfunction. Unfortunately, same thing. Please bring back the earlier Alphafly designs!

Comparatively, the Alphafly 3 is 1) lighter 2) more stable (especially around curves) 3) easier on the knees 4) adaptable (one can walk in them) 5) durable (the tread appears to be tougher) Conversely, they operate very differently than the Alphafly 1 and 2, which are front dominant shoes that make one bounce like Tigger the Tiger from step to step. The Alphafly 3 exchanges the great bounce for stability, especially around corners (there's a world of difference). For racing, this exchange is highly advantageous. For an easy run, its a disadvantage (the shoes do all the hard work for Alphafly 1 and 2; the runner must do more work with Alphafly 3).

Love these! So much lighter than the 2s and stability seems better. Was lucky enough to get a pair through my local running store, otherwise good luck. Just wore them to a massive marathon PR, well below BQ and NYC marathon time qualifier. 3 days later barely sore and toenails look perfect. I had a lot of posterior chain soreness with the 2s I didn’t have with these.
I am absolutely in love with this pair! I got a PR in them, and I can see why. They’re incredibly comfortable and have a bouncy feel that makes every run more enjoyable. The color is fantastic, too—definitely stands out. I’ve been training for my first marathon in these shoes and can’t wait to cross the finish line with them on. Highly recommend to anyone looking for that extra boost in their performance!
Not much needs to be said. They’re fantastic for people who can turn over their legs quickly. If you can justify the price worth every penny. Take not of the bootie style upper, may not work for you. Always worth having a similar pair or better yet try it on in person before committing. I highly doubt you’ll regret buying them.
I love these shoes, have a few pairs of different Alphafly models, from the 1st to the 3rd versions. My only issue with these has always been the NIKE quality control.For the price you pay, and the type of shoe they are supposed to be, they should tighten their quality control and make sure their shoes are not sold with visual faults.Many have quite a heavy dent on the toe box area. Not a problem when this is light as it is a light material. But some have a dent that is too pronounced and gets worst with use.Also, the lower half of the sole and the top half are not always properly lined up when fusing them together.
I have run in more than 30 pair of Nike "go fast" shoes (4%, next%, vaporfly, alphafly, etc.) since 2018 and have appreciated all of them for various reasons. I have typically also gotten great mileage out of each model and version. Typically, more than 300 miles. Except for the Alphafly 3's Both shoes are fraying on the upper outside heel area to the left and right of the pull-on strap. This is after 25 miles. I have a running buddy and hers are doing the same thing. Fast shoes while they last. Have a second pair still in box. Will definitely be using these only for PR or BQ races.
I have the 1st Vaporfly and the 1st Alphafly, but these Alphafly 3's are something else, something great !! I have moderately wide flat feet in a size 11 and I love the midsole cushion and width of these shoes, very comfy, roomy, and light. These are the best carbon-plated Super shoes I have ever used, having one sole with all the air pumps and foam is a great idea..it really pushes your foot forward and makes you wanna run faster. 10/10.
I’ve tried multiple other super shoe brands but choose the Alphafly as my race day shoe every time- easily the most responsive and most energy return out of any of the carbon plated shoes. I love the 3rd rendition of this shoe because it has far more stability than the previous models and removed some of the additional material around the arch and heel that could cause discomfort for some. Aside from racing, I’ll use these 1-2 times a week for speed workouts. Excited for the new color ways for marathon season!
