Absolutely love the “Run Today” idea, Seth!! Seeing your daily runs, and the routine surrounding it, is so helpful and inspirational for my own training. I’m sure many other viewers agree!

@SethJamesDeMoor 2 года назад

COMMENT OF THE DAY!!!

@phildevon4093 2 года назад

By trying to reduce the weight of the show I feel like you are completely missing the point of the shoe. The Zoom Fly line up is not suppose to be a supper lightweight racing shoe, instead it is a more affordable and durable shoe for those who wish to either use it for training or as a racing shoe that will last longer than other offerings from Nike. Furthermore, there are feature of the shoe that might have no use to you, for example the loop on the heel, but could be useful to other users, such as those who have a hard time putting their shoes on or the many triathletes who use this shoe who need to put the shoe on fast. By adding the loop they are adding very little weight to the shoe which will in no way make you slower, but are making the shoe more accessible. This is not the first time I feel like you are so focused on your own point of view and fail to realise that perhaps the shoe designers at Nike and other companies, who spend 1000s of hours and come up with many different designs, might know more about what their target market wants and what makes a successful shoe than you, who doesn't run more than 50 miles in a shoe before you never touch them again.

@gregprevite8548 2 года назад

Couldn’t agree more.

@ptlewis2000 2 года назад

Word!

@DadVenturesNature 2 года назад

There’s definitely some value in this experiment, and I hope that Nike is looking into this too. I do like the additional weight for a training shoe so that putting on the VaporFly feels that much more special. I don’t think Nike is necessarily thinking of it that way, and just making different shoes so they can sell all the things to all the people. Still, I feel like I personally get some piece of mind and maybe a little confidence boost when I run in the Zoom Fly 4 knowing that the extra weight is holding me back a little. Then when I slide on the VaporFly’s for race day, I feel like I’m going to float off the start line. Love that feeling!

@ptlewis2000 2 года назад

This!

@barrybenkendorf672 2 года назад

Plain and simple: the Zoom Fly 4 is a daily trainer for racing with the Vaporfly Next%. Similar carbon plate, similar biomechanics, same drop. The Zoom Fly 4 is perfection (at least I expect them to be beyond perfection since they are said to be an improvement over the ZF3, which I have 2 pairs, and they are already perfection). Durability: I have run over 1500miles on my first pair of Zoom Fly 3s and they are still perfect! At least the foam and upper is in perfect condition. Mind blown. The outsold still has rubber and only worn down on the high wear areas. I use my first pair mostly for trail running now since the outsole is mostly worn and my 2nd pair for road running only. Incredible shoes. It'll be probably another year until my ZF3s wear and I can try out the ZF4.

@jeffe.3453 2 года назад

My thoughts exactly with how I’ll be training in the zoom fly 4s then switching over to a lighter shoe like the vapor fly in race day. Weight and stamina training for the legs!

@andrewpalmblade8646 2 года назад

I bet if you got a Dremel with some different shaped bits and sanders you could do some much cleaner and more detailed work. You could sand away parts of the midsole flare, create more flex grooves in the outsole of the forefoot and also dig out a decoupled groove. Definitely wear an N95 and do it outside... probably wouldn't want to breathe in the dust. This is a cool idea and I'd be interested to see what it would be like on other shoes. Especially ones with a lot of outsole coverage.

@ChrisSee 2 года назад

I started to write about getting a Dremel and you already nailed it! Sounds like a fun experiment.

@Jespeppers 2 года назад

Indeed what I was thinking. Although I appreciate the try, it's painful to watch

@latexgeneration 2 года назад

I agree on the Dremel. It will do the job easily and cut though the sole, dare I say, like butter.

@mikecampbell8060 2 года назад

Hey Seth, I think this is a cool idea! Check out oscillating multi-tools. They are versatile tools and could help with cutting foam or rubber more easily. For your shoe teardown videos, I was thinking it would be interesting to see the weight of the different components of the shoes, if you were able to separate out the upper, midsole, outsole and weigh each part.

@Elmo6855 2 года назад

Was just going to say, multi-tool. At every big box store, inexpensive, super versatile and much safer than a razor blade under pressure.

@chadlawless8870 2 года назад

Killing me with the head lamp when the sun is up.....

@Deadbuck73 2 года назад

You need a dremel tool with some grinders and cutting wheels… there are also wire foam cutters that model railroaders use to heat and cut through foam… sharp sharp sharp razor blades are a must too… just be careful not to let too much blood 🩸!

@IT_Farhan 2 года назад

Dremels will pretty much do anything!

@raysollarsthehappyjogger5907 2 года назад

I also love the "Run Today" spot. Reminds me of keeping track of my own. I can proudly say I have not missed a single running workout in a year!!! I am very disciplined and I am sure it will pay off on my 1st marathon in Los Angeles on March 20th. Sidenote: I have splurged on myself and sent off for the ASICS Metaspeed "Tokyo" Sky and am hoping this will work for me as my 1st marathon shoe. I think for me this shoe will work better than the Nike's. My fall back can always be my Saucony Endorphin Speed version 1's or even the Skechers Speed Freek and I will be testing the feel of them all. Have a feeling the Metaspeed Sky will prevail in the end as long as I don't feel the stiffness of the carbon plate will beat me up as a novice.

@simonkarlssonholmer244 2 года назад

You are truly my biggest inspiration, managing your training and at the same time your managing your family like that, just awesome, love your videos man, keep it up💯💯

@GotDamBoi 2 года назад

I would love to put 1000 miles on my running shoes but I generally start to notice issues before I even get to 400 miles regardless of brand. The cushion starts to go and the shin splints return with vengeance

@marcuslockhart4610 2 года назад

Seth have you checked out the "energy arc" from the upcoming New Balance SC Elite (2022) ? Not sure if that counts as a decoupled groove but it looks to be similar.

@QronoZ713 2 года назад

If you could remove the outsole completly and then cut it up into the pieces you want and then re attach?

@timobrien256 2 года назад

One of my running friends, Ron Daws, use to cut weight off his racing shoes back in the 60s and 70s…..fun to see you try it.

@GabrielMiranda-dr7yf 2 года назад

QD: I have a track meet that I’m really exited about because I feel in really good shape not only physically but mentally. I’ll be running the 800m and the 1500m hoping to pr in both events and bring some medals home.

@ptlewis2000 2 года назад

From someone who thinks the Zoom Fly 4 is the most perfect shoe (for fast long runs/racing) including the pull tabs, this hurts to watch.

I was set back by injury and illness during the cross country season in the fall so I am excited to see what the results will be now that I am feeling better than stronger! Hoping to beat my PR of 15:33.

@hanrik27 2 года назад

I used to wear fly3 and it left a good impression on me at the beginning, but after wearing it for a period of time, the midsole became unelastic. React is a very ordinary material

God damn, you look like have gained some weight. How does your body weight change during the year? And what is the optimal BMI for you or other runners? What's the impact?

@mrjgrant7583 2 года назад

I think your tampering with the Zoom fly 4 is a sneaky way of turning it into a Mizuno shoe with that d.coupled grove.

@drewsome007 2 года назад

I am considering buying the zoom fly 4 as my next shoe so seeing you cut into the midsole like that really hurt, and especially after soo little weight was reduced. It really shows how the midsole is such a small fraction of the total weight. I feel like the upper is probably heavy due to the “dual layer” nature of it.

@gabebr08 2 года назад

@CSWells-uq4jx 2 года назад

I always get hole’s in my upper after like 200 miles :/ The soles still have life left. Any tricks to patch these and maybe get some extra miles out of the shoes?

@that_which_is_not 2 года назад

I use tent repair tape, you have to place a little square of it carefully inside the shoe with all the laces out so you can fit your hand and the tape in there. Tricky with gusseted tongue’s. Hope that helps 👍

@kikii1 2 года назад

Seth you just need a grinder and a flap wheel. You can then gently sand it down if you are careful.

@joelscragg2259 2 года назад

Hey Seth. Try a traditional spoon carving tool. You can really scoop out the midsole with one of those!

@petermuller6903 2 года назад

I put a thumb up but am not pleased with these disections. Doesn't make any sense for me. Accept how it is and donate the shoe! GREETINGS FROM SALZBURG/AUSTRIA!!!

@ezeddie9747 2 года назад

A dremmel tool would work well. Length of shoe laces. Or change them all together

@RunningOtaku 2 года назад

Idea- drill a bunch of holes in the midsole to excavate some of the foam. It might make the shoe both lighter and more flexible. 🤔

@IT_Farhan 2 года назад

Best idea so far!

@that_which_is_not 2 года назад

More of this madness please! 🤪

@davidgross7972 2 года назад

I am doing the local 5k Santa Shuffle tomorrow, which I try to do every year in support of The Salvation Army helping the homeless and hungry. It is on a rail trail so mostly dirt path and possibly some snow, along with a dip for a creek crossing and general uphill on the way out. Unfortunately it is virtual again this year the same as last year, so not as much fun to see families and young kids doing the 1k race. Still, last year I managed to pull of a 5k PB so hope to do it again this year!

@owenschroeder7041 2 года назад

I wouldn't use heat, it might ruin the midsole durometer. Maybe using a Dremel to carve out sections would be your best bet. Awesome video though!

@ColinMcRaeVIT 2 года назад

SUGGESTION: I just watched a video from RU-vid shoe reviewer Brendan Camm about the Nike invincible after 200 miles. It looks like that you didn’t hold up very well. Made me think, maybe for some of the most popular shoes you could do a two or 300 mile update to confirm the predictions or something?

@IT_Farhan 2 года назад

Do you think Nike intentionally kept it heavier to not encroach on Vapor sales? They could have just taken off 8mm of stack and made it into a 5k/10k "flat". Now it just ends up looking like a budget version of the Next %...

@ptlewis2000 2 года назад

I think this is a good question. But for what I’m hearing is that it’s supposed to be a better trainer for the VaporFly. Which makes a lot of sense when you look at the upper improvements and compare to the VF%2. But for heavier folks, the ZF4 is STILL a fast shoe (I know from experience, it beat the speed which is too unstable for me). As another commenter said a bit more harshly, Nike had to know what they were doing for who they were doing it for when they made this shoe. And some of us absolutely love it.

@Mike-is9gd 2 года назад

QD: Rehoboth Seashore Marathon (Delaware). Racing the full- mostly asphalt 🛣, some boardwalk 🪵, as well as some crushed gravel pathways! Pretty flat course, 360 ft of elevation gain over 26.2 mi 👌👌 Looking to beat my PR set this past spring in Salisbury MD, 2:58:02. Had some setbacks in training dealing with Plantar Fasciitis; but utilized some therapy techniques in your prior videos, and I’m optimistic it’s under control (enough) to run away with a PR tomorrow. Whether or not I achieve a PR, I’ve enjoyed the training cycle -managing to build some fitness in spite of the PF, and I’m blessed to be making family memories on a long weekend vacation with MY true love & 3 kids (& in-laws)! And if you’re like 99%+ of us not on the top of the podium winning prize money, that’s what it’s all about 🙂

It seems so petty when 99% of the ppl could put the fork down for a day and lose that 20 grams that seems to be a deal breaker in some shoes. Or do the training and strenght work. Ppl spend hundreds and hundreds for a new lighter model but dont take the time to do 2 30 min sessions of heavy squats for example. Ive called myself out for this problem and could nowdays care less what the scale says as long as the shoe rides well enough. My 2 cents no one asked for :)
