Alphafly NEXT%

Racing2020 · Global · AnnouncedChecked 2026-09-02

Alphafly NEXT% is Nike's first flagship marathon racer. It combines lightweight, responsive ZoomX foam, two forefoot Air Zoom pods and a full-length carbon-fiber plate to balance cushioning, stability, smooth transition and propulsion. An ultralight Atomknit upper adds breathability and secure containment for long race efforts. Japan's initial release was a qualifying-time NRC app sale.
