Nike has announced new upgrades for its Zoom Vaporfly 4% and Zoom Fly running silhouettes ahead of marathon season. The two silhouettes have been updated with an extra focus on running performance, including increased durability and ultra-lightweight, breathable support.

The update of the Zoom Vaporfly 4% is the first time that the silhouette has featured a Flyknit upper, which makes the shoe more breathable and ultra lightweight (a Men’s size 10 will way just 198g). The Zoom Fly also comes with a Flyknit upper, as well as the addition of Nike React Foam for a softer run and the same full-length carbon-fiber plate as the Zoom Vaporfly 4%. These new features mean that the shoe is more efficient than any of Nike’s previous fastest shoes.

The Nike Zoom Fly Flyknit will be priced at $160 USD and hit the Nike web store on September 13. The Zoom Vaporfly 4% Flyknit will release on October 4 for $250 USD.
