Nike Vaporfly 4 "Eliud Kipchoge"

Ultralight design delivers a propulsive feel from a 10k to a marathon

The new-look Vaporfly 4 "Eliud Kipchoge" is a lean, mean, mile-eating machine. We trimmed inessential weight in the midsole, outsole and upper from the Vapor 3 without sacrificing performance. The result is a lighter, more propulsive all-around racing shoe that’s trusted from the mile to the marathon.

Behind the Design

Eliud Kipchoge says achieving your dream isn't a solo endeavor, so we utilized his community in designing this shoe. His family influenced the color selection and the multi-style Swoosh logo, which represents the strength behind a team. "No human is limited" nods to the endless possibilities you have with a support system.

Lighter Upper

Engineered mesh helps reduce the weight of the shoe while providing a more consistent fit. And we saved more weight by reducing the size of the heel and tongue.

Lighter Outsole

We reduced the weight of the outsole by using a thinner rubber compared to the Vaporfly 3.

Full Speed

The full-length carbon fiber Flyplate has a higher angle than the Vaporfly 3 and combines with a lower heel-to-toe drop to give you a propulsive feel on race day.
