The Nike Air Zoom Alphafly Next% is a high-performance carbon-plated racing flat designed for elite marathoners and serious runners seeking maximum speed and energy return. This vibrant iteration features a striking neon green Atomknit upper with black structural overlays and bold orange accents on the heel collar—enhancing both visibility and aerodynamic aesthetics. The midsole integrates Nike's full-length ZoomX foam (lightweight, responsive, and highly cushioned) paired with a visible carbon fiber plate for propulsive toe-off. A dual-layer Zoom Air unit in the forefoot provides additional responsiveness and impact protection. The engineered mesh upper ensures breathability and adaptive fit, while the asymmetric lacing system and padded tongue improve lockdown without pressure points. Ideal for race day or tempo runs, it delivers exceptional ground feel and efficiency. Though optimized for competitive running, its bold streetwear appeal makes it a statement piece for sneakerheads. Not recommended for daily casual wear due to aggressive geometry and minimal durability for non-running use. Size 8.5 US shown; available in men’s and women’s sizing.
