The Nike Vaporfly Next% 2 was one of the most outstanding Nike Running releases of 2021. A model that made history positioning itself as one of the North American brand's fastest options and whose second update promises to continue reaping countless successes. With the the great Eliud Kipchoge wearing the original version, this updated Vaporfly Next% 2 is renewed to continue presenting itself as a reliable option as a racing shoe to continue achieving goals and breaking records.

Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 2, características principales

Based on the success of the first version of the Nike Vaporfly Next% running shoes, the designers of the American company are committed to evolve this new model that shows - once again - the joint work between engineers, athletes and product developers withthe aim of optimising each stride of the runner and thus achieve maximum performance. A compendium of the latest generation materials and technologies, strategically applied to make this Nike Vaporfly Next% 2 one of the fastest running models in history.

That said, this super shoe introduces improvements in its upper, while ensuring a cushioning capacity with a higher degree of reactivity that increases the trainer's performance to beat personal bests in different distances ranging between a 10k race and a marathon.

The most significant innovations of the Nike Vaporfly Next% 2

These Vaporfly Next% 2 from Nike Running maintain the bet on that innovative and exclusive ZoomX foam that is capable of ensuring the best energy return that the Oregon brand has created to date. Of course that reactivity is maximised by the insertion of the carbon fibre plate, favouring the momentum in each stride, and not giving up optimal stability. An ambitious combination that allows neutral-gait runner with a good and refined running technique, to reach race pace in all types of distances, at a very lively pace below 4:30 min/km.

Among the great new features of these top-of-the-range running shoes in terms of cushioning is the redesign of the upper. A strategic area of the trainer that now bets on a softer and more breathable material compared to the Vaporweave present in the first version, the Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next%. We are talking about a mesh fabric that wraps around the runner's foot allowing greater comfort and impeccable freedom of movement.

On the other hand, the strategic reinforcements in this model allow faster runners eager to devour kilometres on asphalt to enjoy greater security in each stride. Not to mention that this trainer also features a wider toe area, offering a looser fit.

It is in the tongue where the product designers have opted for improvements in order to relieve the pressure of the laces and increase comfort. New padding is strategically placed for an unbreakable fit that translates into enhanced comfort on the run.

The outsole of the Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 2 features a flex groove pattern for increased traction on multiple surfaces in a variety of weather conditions.

Maximum speed, reactivity and lightness with the new Nike Vaporfly Next% 2

At the RUNNEA editorial team we have no doubt that this renewed Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 2 is one of the most outstanding releases of 2021. A model whose original version was considered the fastest option of the American brand, no more, no less! This time, with this second version on the market, the best option is to wear a model with responsive cushioning and support, as well as greater comfort and breathability.

A more breathable, soft and comfortable upper, with extra reinforcements in the toe area and a more padded tongue; these are the main novelties of the Nike Vaporfly Next% 2, a model that stands as one of the best running shoes of 2021 and that, once again, will be a turning point in the extensive catalogue of the American brand and if not, time will tell!
