The Nike Zoom Fly 3 for men are neutral competition running shoes. These Nike Zoom Fly 3s are the successors of the Nike Zoom Fly Flyknit. The Zoom Fly 3 has undergone a few changes when compared to its predecessor. The Zoom Fly 3's updates have been inspired by Nike's revolutionary Vaporfly shoes. The Zoom Fly 3 has been designed for running longer distances. The Vaporweave upper is light of weight and has a semi-transparent look. It offers high breathability which keeps the feet cool when running. The thin fabric doesn't sponge up water, thereby ensuring that the shoes stay lightweight in every condition and throughout your runs. The lace system and the supportive strap at foot arch height offer stability to the feet and comfortably enclose the feet without becoming too rigid. The midsole of the Nike Zoom Fly 3 is made of Nike's popular React material. This material is famous for providing a high energy return and a responsive feel. A carbon-fibre plate is fitted in between the layers of React-foam. This plate functions as a spring; it propels you forward when running and adds to the responsive feel of these competition running shoes. The heel has been designed to release tension off of the Achilles tendons. Rubber pieces added to the heel and forefoot function as outsole, thereby minimizing the weight of the Zoom Fly 3, but also adding to their durability.

I've owned four pairs of the Zoom Fly Flyknits and loved them all. Eight other runners in my club switched to them on my recommendation and love them as well. When I saw they were being replaced by the Zoom Fly 3, I was excited to see how they could improve on an already spectacular shoe. Sadly, I was greatly disappointed. Despite ordering my usual half size up, they were oddly tight in the toe box and loose in the heel no matter the lacing pattern used. The new lacing system adds a firmer plastic/rubber textured box that pinches and rubs, especially compared to the glove-like fit of the Flyknit upper. The Vaporweave is also hot. It doesn't breathe well and is somewhat flimsy, giving the shoe a clunkier feel than the previous iteration. The cushioning and sole are ...

The 3's seem to bring back those elements I disliked in the first Zoom Fly's. All in all I'm a sure it's a decent shoe. However, seeing that it's in a higher price category than most shoes, and in comparison to its predecessor, it fails to meet expectations. I'll be returning these and stocking up on the Flyknits before they are gone. I saw that the Next% has an option to replace the Vaporweave with a Flyknit upper. This option would bring me back to give it another try.

I bought these as an alternative to the UA HOVR sneakers for running. While the HOVRs were okay, they weren't great. Every once in awhile, I would get these random pains in my knees and shins because the HOVR foam isn't that thick. The Zoom Fly 3s provide way more foam and the response/ energy transfer is much better. They are easy to run in and the vapor weave technology keeps my feet cool and dry. If you are running in the winter, I advise thick socks because I think it WILL be cold. These are good shoes for the 3-5 mile runner like myself and a good trainer for the 10+ mile runner. If you're running long distances, I suggest something a little lighter like the Next%. I run mostly on the road but on the track, these feel fine too. These shoes look great on the ...

By far my favorite shoe I've ever had. Comfort, support, responsiveness, simply outstanding. I've trained and raced in all of the major brands, these are still my go-to everyday and long distance shoe.My running profile is marathon prep, three marathons coming up. Nearly all of my running is on pavement, concrete, or stone - not impact friendly. Currently hitting 50 - 60 miles a week, which means replacing my shoes every 8 - 10 weeks. I've been using the Zoom Fly 3s for the past year and a half. Tried another (more expensive) Nike shoe (due to Nike temporarily discontinuing the Zoom Fly 3s), the other shoes didn't give me nearly the comfort level of these...or the lasting mileage.Pro note: I always replace the soles in all new shoes.

In terms of performance while running, these shoes are exactly as advertised. Responsive, comfortable, and FAST. Unfortunately they've become my go-to training shoe. I say "unfortunately" because at this price point they are no where near durable enough. After only 90 miles, the outsole begins to go. At 110 miles, the outsole starts to disappear. I'm neutral runner and and the outsole has started to grind down to nothing. I'll get 150-175 miles out of this shoe if I'm lucky. The upper on this shoe is a fantastic, quick-dry weave: A+. The midsole is just cushy enough and the carbon fiber does exactly what Nike says it does: A+. The outsole is, sadly. about as durable ad a pencil eraser: C-. I'll probably keep buying this show because it is a great trainer. But, I ... MoreIn terms of performance while running, these shoes are exactly as advertised. Responsive, comfortable, and FAST.

This shoe has been exactly the running shoe I have looked for years to find. I have been running with my Lunar Eclipse 3 shoes for almost a decade and have logged thousands of miles on them. In-between the countless miles on that shoe I have purchased many of Nike's latest and greatest running shoes and always wound up reverting to sticking with my tried and true Lunar's. I had some initial skepticism when I saw the Zoom Fly 3's but had no choice but to try them when my Lunar's really had to retire after thousands of miles running on them.After logging almost 100 miles on my new Zoom Fly 3's, I have been nothing short of amazed at the overall greatness of this shoe. It hits the mark on all my running nuances such as long run comfort, durability, and energy return. ... MoreThis shoe has been exactly the running shoe I have looked for years to find.

It hits the mark on all my running nuances such as long run comfort, durability, and energy return. To top it off, the flexibility with the shoe is another understated and underestimated feature. It is incredibly light yet stable so if you have a quick run in mind or sprints, this shoe can handle that and then some. I feel this shoe can handle any type of run you have in mind regardless of indoor/outdoor.The vaporweave on the exterior allows for great breathability during long runs and I have found little to no overheating on my feet after concluding runs. At the same time, it seems the material is great at repelling water/sweat that may land on them. I don't run outdoors often but i don't imagine running in rain would be a problem with these either.The overall fit is true to size in my opinion with a sleeker focus on the shoe's design. I can see some runners with wider feet taking issue with the fit but for me I love and appreciate its sleek design.In conclusion, this has been the best running shoe I have purchased. I have actually improved on speed of my runs on top of the already long duration so the shoe's amazing energy return has left me with little to no discomfort during and after long runs. Time will tell if it surpasses my love for Lunar Eclipse and whether or not I can still be running in these for a decade like the Eclipse but it looks very promising especially with the shoes durability.
Sometimes I feel silly for buying shoes like this as an amateur, everyday runner (running 3-5 miles a few times a week). But then I remember how these are the only shoes I've found that save me from gnarly joint pain in my ankles, knees, and hips that used to take me out for months, and I order another pair. They also feel notably springier in each step, to the point that sometimes it feels like I'm cheating. The midsole is so thick and firm-yet-soft it's *chef's kiss.*I could see people running into issues if they have wide feet, but that's a pretty standard Nike problem. I also think the sheer height of the midsole means you need to be more cautious of where you step to avoid a twisted ankle, but it's all worth it to me.Plus, they look cool. ✌️
These shoes definitely delivered on the responsiveness and their ability to help conserve energy while providing more power with each stride. It does however make you adjust your gait to feel comfortable, which is good because it pushes you toward a more efficient gait pattern but still a strange feeling during the first use.One thing which was very strange when I wear them is that the shoe gives a feeling of absent lateral support in the heal. Although I haven't hit a terrain which has been demanding in my limit use, I feel that I wouldn't wear these on anything other than good or known road conditions. I say this again due to the fact that I do not trust there lateral support and would fear turning in ankle in more challenging terrain.Overall, this is a great ...

I say this again due to the fact that I do not trust there lateral support and would fear turning in ankle in more challenging terrain.Overall, this is a great shoe with extreme comfort and great ability to increase power output with each stride, you just have to be ready to let the shoe guide you toward a different and in most cases more efficient gait pattern because it only wants to drive one way. Which is one of the reasons I purchased the shoe, yet, could be a deterrent for other runners who are comfortable with their well established, while potentially less efficient gait pattern.
These shoes seem a little polarizing for folks. They are magic for me. These are the most comfortable road running shoes I’ve ever run in. I’m amazed every time I run that I don’t feel like I’m on asphalt at all. So soft and yet responsive at the same time. The thick slab of React foam seems like it should feel unstable but the carbon fiber plate keeps it nice and stable for me, and helps Me pick up the pace. I only have about 60 miles on mine so I can’t speak for long term durability but mine are fine. The only real negative I have is that they are a little bottom heavy and as others have mentioned some will feel that on longer runs. I do. I keep running anyway because they’re so dang fun and comfortable.
Used these from walking around, to sprints, to running 3+ miles and it never disappointed. Haven't gone for a long distance run in ages so I decided to take these for a spin and they were awesome! I thought my legs and feet would be sore but surprisingly they were not. The shoes were surprisingly very bouncy for a foam throughout my run and in a very controlled manner, unlike boost. My feet are flat and typically I wouldn't use something without duel density or support on a long run but my feet felt fine. The shoe does run a little long in the toebox, other than that the width and fit is pretty typical for Nike. The weight of the shoe is also so light, if it wasn't for the cushion, I wouldn't know I had shoes on. Overall a great running shoe!
I bought this shoe as a trainer to the Vaporfly Next% because if you don't already know the Next% doesn't last long. The ZF3 fits true to size for me and is heavily cushioned with React Foam especially in the forefoot area which is where I need it the most as a forefoot striker. I feel confident that my feet are protected with the level of cushioning. There are a couple of things that I dislike about the shoes however. First, the shoe is heavy (bottom heavy to be exact). With the combination of the CF plate and the React foam, you don't really feel any propulsion compared to when the plate is paired with ZoomX. Also, what bothered me the most is the heel slippage! I tried the runners knot, tying the laces tight, and trying different socks but my heel still slips. ...
