The patterned midsole gives this Nike Vaporfly 4 a different look from a plain foam racing shoe. A dark Swoosh stretches across the outer side, while red covers much of the forefoot rubber and sweeps along the sculpted midsole. The cutaway underneath exposes the black plate through the center of the sole.
This men’s road racer pairs full-length ZoomX foam with a carbon-fiber Flyplate and a 6 mm heel-to-toe drop. Compared with the Vaporfly 3, the fourth version uses thinner outsole rubber, smaller heel and tongue sections, and a higher plate angle. Those are construction changes specific to this generation.
