NIKE ZOOM FLY 4 | FIRST IMPRESSIONS REVIEW 

Great review, all the things you said remind me of my zoom fly 3, not much changed then. It took me a while to get accustomed to them, it was like running on platforms at first but now I love them for park runs, tempo runs, and intervals.

Thanks! i enjpyed the Zoom Fly 3 so am looking forward to the 4!

Yes Ben you have encouraged me to start running properly with a schedule rather than just sporadically like I have done in the past, also gaining subs fast right now, 10k soon come 👍🏼

Got them this week for 70 euros, great deal. The shoes are awesome, I absolutely love them. Nike always seem to fit me perfectly.

Love to see it!!

Good review , I almost purchased.. watched this and reconsidered .. Will get another pair of next %s for my tempo runs 🏃‍♂️

Great video! Slowly Coming up to 1000km in my zoom fly 3 so will be purchasing this to partner my vapourfly next% 2

Great video, keep up the good work, loving the style and the insights, well done!!

Just leaving a comment for algorithm sake. Keep up the good work ben

Just tested few weeks ago, pity that they are on the heavy side... Vertical oscillation ratio and Ground contact time in average are quite good!

👍 Was tempted with this one but I think I’ll stick with my tempo next%

I was always a nike guy untill this year. I now wear the Ascis metaspeed for long runs and the ascis magic speed for training and shorter runs... Best shoes i have ever owned ❤

I’ve always found the zoomfly shoes a good long run shoe as well, particularly if I’m running the marathon in vapour fly, it’s a good transition. Good review 👍

After this video popped up, it has inspired me to pull out my original zoom fly's for tomorrow mornings run. I'm sure a lot has changed since. I weighed my UK 9's at 244g.

Both zoom fly and vaporfly are my favourite

Good video Ben I enjoyed the opening, very well done. I think I’ll leave this shoe though I’m Not really feeling it!

Just got mine, hope works for my 10 k park run

When I saw this in store I realised the midsole is softer than the zoom fly 3 which is good (as I hated the ZF3's). Awesome review mate and appreciate your hard work making these vids

After trying the Vaporfly and Speed, then going back to traditional shoes, Zoom Fly 3 continues to be my best 10k+ racer. 200lbs, flat foot, overpronator. So I'll be getting the ZF4 for next marathon. Nike needs to market this as a stability marathon shoe. Too many of you efficient neutral runners giving it a bad name. Haha!

Good review. I wouldn't expect this to have the pop of a Alpha or Vapor Fly but rather as a bridge shoe for maybe tempo runs. It would be great if they replaced the React foam for Zoom foam.

you have just said one word, led me to buy it immediately...( prevent shin splint!! I am buyer!) if you recommend better than this shoe for shin splint , let me know....nice video

Good luck for your half-marathon race!

Yes!! Great to see more quality content. Thanks Ben. Following you on Strava now too! Would love to see you do a review on the Topo Uktrafly 3. Have you heard of it? Such a brilliant shoe! I’m going to invest in the Nike Alphafly… based on one of the other comments on here 15 seconds/km!!

I currently run the Nike Tempo next %, looking at adding another shoe to my rotation. Out of the Nike range what would you suggest/reccomend as a longer distance running shoe? The zoom fly 4, tempos or Zoom x invincible?

Have you ever run in the Saucony Endorphin Speed's before? I have thought about giving them a whirl recentley

Nice shoes

Hi. I have 2 questions. I use pegasus 37 size 10.5 and i have a thumb width. On zoom fly 4 should i stay with that size or go real size? What is better or what you recommend fly4 or tempo next?

I'm about 340 miles into my ZF3 pair. I didn't like them at first: like you mentioned "a bit clunky", but I found the React foam to soften over time, and the shoe just gets better and better. It works well for me with long steasy runs and hill repeats. Kind of a cruiser shoe that keeps you going at quite a good pace.

not as durable but zoomx invincible is by far my fav for everything but racing

The problem I have with the tempo next% is inconsistency in insole. I’ve had two pairs and one is poorly manufactured. The edges of the footbed are slightly elevated in on leading to cramps and I can feel the pods through the insole. Horrible. And sloppy.

Great review Ben. You mentioned there is a lot of toe space, is the front of the shoe any broader than others? I wear a wide/2E New Balance due to broad feet, but as a non-competitive runner, this Nike could be something I'd be interested in if it's on the wide-side!

I like the colours! Not the type of shoe for me though. The price does seem reasonable for that type of shoe.

Man! Help me! 😉🏃🏻 For training. Tempo next% our zoom fly 4?

So nice, bro! Great analysis! The upper with a not very good fit for me

Hey ben …nice video … i have a question … i have tryed de nike alphafly and im 15 seconds per km faster then other shoes … its just a big diference , are the Nike alphafly legal ? And if its legal , why didnt kipchoge use it on this olimpics games on marathon? Because they are way beter then the vaporfly…btw i have run with this 2 to try it …thanks and continue with good work 👊

Slightly off topic but how many Ks would you recommend in a vaporfly before they need changing. I've just started using my first pair for racing after watching your videos

Great video might buy a pair random question have you ever had Achilles tendinitis?

May I use them when I 100kg man ?

what strenght training routine you do ben ? share at yt ?

A plated pegasus?

i want this shoes what is the price this shoes in indian currency becuse i am form india*

Silver for me in the comments cup!

At high speeds it’s more responsive

Nike Fly 3 are much better in my opinion.

when you say true to size, you mean true to your regular shoe size ?

If u live in my country, U can dominate us just in the 5km😂

Shoe's rs,

Robert pattinson is that you?!

Nik-eeeeeee...

Dear Ben, Thanks for your insight. Your reviews are informative and useful. However, I must say that every time you say the Nike brand name, I can’t help but get distracted from the main point and wonder why you insist on mispronouncing the very product that you are reviewing to a global audience. Perhaps I’m the only one…? Yes, I understand that many people in the U.K. pronounce Nike as Ni-ke rather than the correct pronunciation of Ni-key. However, as you may be aware, it is not merely a U.S. vs U.K. pronunciation issue, but rather where the name originates from and how it was supposed to be pronounced in its original language/form to begin with. Besides, if the company making these shoes calls itself Ni-KEY to the whole world, maybe we should consider that they can be called the way they wish, no? On a different note, we as English speakers can choose to ignore how Scottish whiskey names are meant to be pronounced (which are often based on Scottish Gaelic rather than English), but wouldn’t it be better to try and pronounce these things correctly as it would only be more polite to pronounce place names, given names, etc. as they are meant to be, rather than how we may be accustomed to saying them or feel like saying them…? Ni-ke vs. Ni-key is a minor point. I realize that! But since you’re educating your audience on the these products, maybe it’s not such a bad idea to also educate people on the correct pronunciation of the name by saying it correctly yourself (even if many people in the U.K. may be mispronouncing Nike themselves). Perhaps something to consider… Good luck with all your running endeavors! -Areg
