Nike Alphafly 3 is a plated super shoe built for serious racing, especially marathons and other fast efforts. The ZoomX feel and aggressive design are described as a cheat code on race day, with strong performance and a premium, flagship feel. Comfort is mixed in daily use, though, because the fit can be awkward to put on and uncomfortable for normal activity. The shoes also seem best for runners who already know they want this kind of race-day advantage, since the benefit is limited for slower paces and the outsole is said to wear out after about 100 miles.

  • Competitive marathon runners chasing race-day speed, because the plated design feels like a cheat code and can make fast efforts feel easier.

  • Runners who already want a super shoe, because these are built as flagship performance shoes rather than everyday trainers.

  • Racers who prioritize short-term performance over durability, because the outsole can be good for only about 100 miles.

  • New runners looking for an everyday trainer, because these are not regular running shoes and feel awkward for normal activity.

  • 5K racers seeking a faster shoe, because these can slow you down and a Vaporfly is suggested instead.

  • Runners who need easy on-and-off fit, because putting your feet into the sneaker can be painful and difficult.

  • Distance runners wanting long-lasting value, because the shoes may only stay good for about 100 miles.

These will surely help me break the 2 hour mark at my local 5k ultramarathon
No, they won't. for 5k you should look at Vaporfly instead. These will just slow you down on 5k!

I've recently switched from Nike to Hoka running shoes and dont think the Nikes are worth the cost anymore even with these huge discounts.
lmao crappy take, since Nike pioneered the superfoams that every other shoe maker is also putting in their shoes. Nike's super shoes are some of the highest rated professional running shoes currently.

Good for you, really. A lot of folks I run with like Hokas. I got into Brooks shoes a decade ago and have yet to find anything that replaces them. My local run shop does demo every few weeks and they've brought out performance and plated shoes like this before. They're not that comfortable to run in and I never saw any real benefit. I spent too much time reading the research papers on these things to try and understand why people are sucking them up. Turns out they're a waste of money for anyone who isn't a professional runner competing for prizes.

Do you want to spend $300 to take 7 seconds off your 5k time? Because that's the benefit.

$300 will buy me 10 tanks of gas which will get me back and forth to my run club all year. Way better investment.

So my advise really to all the people in this thread is you don't want these shoes. If your a professional runner listen to your coach instead.
