Nike Alphafly 3 - Built to Break Barriers

Engineered exclusively for marathon racing, the Nike Alphafly 3 combines three race-winning technologies into the lightest Alphafly Nike has ever made. Dual Air Zoom units, a full-length carbon fibre plate, and continuous ZoomX foam work together to help you run faster than you thought possible—from the starting gun to the finishing tape.

Explosive Energy Return

Two Air Zoom units positioned in the forefoot work in tandem with ZoomX foam to return the energy you put into every stride. That propulsive, springy sensation becomes increasingly valuable deep into a marathon, when maintaining pace demands everything you have. The combination delivers a noticeable boost with each footstrike that builds confidence as the miles accumulate.

The Carbon Plate Advantage

A full-length carbon fibre plate—wider than previous versions for improved stability at speed—creates a rolling, propulsive sensation that drives you through your stride. The plate assists smoother transitions through turns and road changes, delivering confidence when racing conditions demand precision. It's the feeling of the shoe working alongside you, not against you.

Cushioning That Goes the Distance

Continuous ZoomX foam runs heel to toe, providing a lightweight, soft platform that protects your legs throughout 26.2 miles. Unlike earlier versions, the fully connected midsole delivers smoother transitions and consistent cushioning from start to finish, helping your legs stay fresher in the closing stages when every second matters.
