Advice for Road Runners: The Nike Men’s Streakfly Road Racing Shoes are currently Nike’s lightest racing shoes (at the time of writing).
A high midsole stack height – such as the one found in the Vaporfly – isn’t for everyone. The Streakfly provides choice.
Underfoot Feel
The most important thing to understand about the Streakfly is that the midsole stack height is low. That means that you will feel more connected with the ground – in comparison to how you would feel in shoes with more foam.
ZoomX foam runs through the full-length of the midsole. Delivering light, responsive cushioning.
Nike used runners’ data to design the traction on the outsole. You should have grip where you need it.
Upper Fit
In keeping the with Streakfly’s purpose, the knit upper is very thin, but has additional reinforcement in the forefoot. The lacing is also offset to the lateral side of each foot. The lacing design helps to reduce the chance of pressure on the top of the feet.
Ideal Run Type
The Nike Men’s Streakfly Road Racing Shoes are for racing distances such as the:
- mile;
- 5k; and
- 10k..
We highly recommend using the Streakfly for its intended purpose. If you are looking for Nike running shoes with more cushioning, there are plenty of other options.
Shoe size is a personal preference and everyone’s feet are different, but we want to ensure you avoid any pain or discomfort from bruised toenails, rubbing, blistering or pins and needles.
Your running shoes should have enough width to allow you to spread your toes and should have some space at the front (we recommend having a half to one thumb’s width of space from the end of your longest toe to the front of your running shoes).
This usually means that your running shoe will be at least a half size bigger than your regular shoe size though this can vary from brand to brand.
