Nike Women's Vaporfly 4
Nike Vaporfly 4
The Vaporfly 4 is a mile-eating machine that just got lighter. We trimmed weight all over from the previous iteration without sacrificing performance. And the carbon fiber Flyplate and ultra-responsive ZoomX foam midsole combine to give you race-day speed. The result is a more fine-tuned racing shoe that’s trusted from the mile to the marathon.
What's New About the Vaporfly 4?
We made minor tweaks so you can enjoy major gains. We trimmed inessential weight in the upper, midsole and outsole without sacrificing performance.
Full Speed
The full-length carbon fiber Flyplate has a higher angle than the Vaporfly 3 and combines with a lower heel-to-toe drop to give you a propulsive feel on race day.
Lighter Foam
Nike ZoomX, our most responsive foam, just got lighter. Running from heel to toe, it unlocks even more energy return than before with a slight midsole reduction, giving you a bouncy, feathery feel.
Lighter Upper
Engineered mesh helps reduce the weight of the shoe while providing a more consistent fit. And we saved more weight by reducing the size of the heel and tongue.
Lighter Midsole and Outsole
What's New?
- Nike’s most resilient foam just got a little better. The midsole design saves weight and unlocks even more energy return by reducing foam where it isn’t needed.
- The lab tested and runner validated curved full-length carbon fiber FlyPlate delivers a propulsive feel and unlocks more leverage from the foot and ankle.
- The blown rubber outsole delivers a dynamic combination of traction, durability and cushion. The softer material compresses to conform to the road for elevated traction and smooth transition.
- Engineered mesh upper increases comfort and fit consistency while contributing to the overall weight savings of the shoe.
