This was a great trip down memory lane while having some really solid and important information with pieces of history. Great video I really enjoyed it!
Nice video, very impressive to have the full set of Nike Supershoes. Also glad you didn't mess around with zoom flys and tempo next percent garbage they've put out recently.
I started watching this not really thinking I’d take much from it, but that was so helpful. My running experience with this range is really similar to yourself. Except I haven’t tried either of the V3 versions yet. Tempted now by the V3 alphaflys!!!! Just. What I didn’t want! 🤦🏼♂️😂
It would be interesting to list the weights of each one. Part of the reason the Vaporfly 3 feels faster is because it’s considerably lighter than the 2, and I believe that might apply to the Alphafly 3 as well.
All of the Vaporfly models come in right around 200g in my size 9.5 on my scale (I weigh my shoes and have a spreadsheet 😂). The Alphafly 1 is 230g, Alphafly 2 is 245g, and Alphafly 3 is 215g.
Ha ha, I just watched the last 30 seconds of the video where you did specifically talk about the weights. I still think specific figures would be interesting. I guess I’ll just get out my wife’s kitchen scale, much to her chagrin, and put my shoes on it. I have every example except the alphafly 3
That’s the problem with some of the Nike shoes, for me the narrow arch is what makes me not like them, I only have the Vaporflys 2019 model (green) and had to buy a half size up.
Im pretty sure the 4% performance increase was tested by a third party after Nike asked them to test the efficiency of the shoe, and not tested by Nike.
Happy to see you bumped on UA-cam algo!! I’ve been following you on instagram for a long long time!!

Ben, for half marathon races which would you choose between Alfafly 3 and Vaporfly 3??? (For paces 4:15 - 4:45)
Nice video, very impressive to have the full set of Nike Supershoes. Also glad you didn't mess around with zoom flys and tempo next percent garbage they've put out recently.
Half of them are left foot shoes, other half are right foot shoes. Detail freak for a reason
I actually have both left and right for all of the shoes (just not shown in the video)!

😂😂 Glad to hear you watched through it though!
Ben, what are the best shoes for 2 mile all out races please ??
I'm about to run a 3rd marathon on my Alphafly 2s, do you think they will still have a decent amount of energy return after 2 marathons?
Cutting into a shot of you staring into my soul smiling is slightly unsettling ngl 🤣
I may have to work on that 😂
Awesome comparing all of the Nike supershoes. By the way what are the weights of AF3 vs VF3?
215g for Alphafly 3 and 200g for the Vaporfly 3 👍

Ben, do you intend to make any non-Nike sponsored videos in the future?
I have a training video pending and I don't talk about shoes in it at all!
Ben what is your favorite companion shoe for the AF3? By the looks of your runs its the AF3😂
Invincible 3 👍
Im pretty sure the 4% performance increase was tested by a third party after Nike asked them to test the efficiency of the shoe, and not tested by Nike.
Make a video on how u train with your treadmill
Will do! 👍
Is it even possible to rank them?
The OG baby blue Vaporfly 4% is the best racer ever!
Who tf runs a 2:52 the year after they start running for their first marathon?! Da fuqqqq
