The Vaporfly 4 is a lean, mean, mile-eating machine. Nike® trimmed weight in the midsole, outsole and upper from the Vaporfly 3 without sacrificing performance. The result is a lighter, more propulsive all-around racing shoe that’s trusted from the mile to the marathon.
What’s New:
A higher angle of the plate and lower heel-to-toe drop compared to the Vaporfly 3 give you an improved propulsive feel
Upgraded Nike® ZoomX foam provides even more energy return than before thanks to a slight midsole reduction, giving you a bouncy, feathery feel
Nike® reduced the weight of the outsole by using a thinner rubber compared to the Vaporfly 3, eliminating unnecessary thickness
Design:
Engineered mesh offers improved comfort and a disappearing feel on your foot, reducing the weight of the shoe while supplying a more consistent fit
The handwritten number on the midsole salutes the wear-testers who put these shoes through our rigorous test process to give you the best performance possible
Reduced weight on the inside of the foot to give you a more stable ride
In-Shoe Comfort:
A full-length carbon fiber Flyplate provides a propulsive, racing feel
ZoomX foam runs heel to toe to give you a springy, bouncy feel
Durability & Traction:
Waffle outsole pattern with perforations saves weight and delivers multi-surface traction in various weather conditions
Additional Details:
Weight: 152 g/5.3 oz (Women's US 8)
Heel-to-toe drop: 6 mm

Light As A Feather
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike Women's Vapor fly 4 is an elite, feather-light carbon-plated road racing shoe priced around $250–$280... This shoe weight is around 4.6 oz for a women's small size, it features Zoom X foam, a full-length fly-plate, with a 6 mm drop, and a streamlined upper mesh that provides stability as well as its fit... It's performance & fit weight is at an exceptional level... This helps to reduce leg fatigue and allows for a quick recovery.... The mid-sole is of the Zoom X foam combined with a stiff carbon-fiber plate which helps the shoes to deliver advanced energy return and a direct propulsive feel...This shoe stability allow a broader more planted platform than previous iterations...This allows the shoe to eliminate the wobbling during sharp turns.... The upper level of this shoe allows for a breathable engineered mesh with better than average heel lock....It also allows for a fixed tongue issue from v3...The fit on this shoe allows for a snug and true to length allowance... This shoe is built on a medium-to-narrow profile that may feel tight for wide feet individuals...Some drawbacks on this shoe is the traction....The outer sole grip feels sketchy at times in need...It also slip on slick, wet pavement or painted road lines....The cushioning is much firmer and less forgiving than bulky max-stack super shoes...This could be a major concern for heavier runners over greater distances....The price as well as the durability is extremely expensive....I wasn't impressed with the exposed Zoom X out-sole...It display the wear very quickly compared to daily trainers...

Awesome Shoes!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are great for racing road 5Ks and track 3200s. They really, really help you go fast. They kind of hurt the insides of my feet, so I don't wear them for workouts, but the pain is just a little, and I don't notice it until after, so it is fine for race day, given how much they improve my performance.

Springy Shoes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes give some serious spring in your step! They were squeaky for about 8 miles, but then died down after that.

Great Shoe
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really like running in this shoe. Was able to run long distance for the first time wearing without issues. Feel good and legs don’t feel as fatigued they did with my old shoes
