Nike Air Zoom Alphafly NEXT% 2 Prototype

Marking the next chapter of Nike’s relentless focus on designing for runners, the all-new Nike Air Zoom Alphafly NEXT% 2 is built for peak performance for the marathon and long-distance road racing. An innovative design built on learnings from the first iteration of Nike’s pinnacle racing shoe, the Alphafly NEXT% 2 now serves the future of runners at all levels.

The updates to the Alphafly NEXT% 2 were focused on refining the construction of the shoe to take all runners through the marathon distance with improved stability and transition. True to its origin, the Alphafly NEXT% 2 midsole is made from a combination of full-length ZoomX foam (Nike’s lightest and most resilient foam), a full-length curved carbon plate, and dual Zoom Air pods — offering runners a propulsive, lightweight and supportive ride.
