Jovani Hernandez Nike Running’s innovation over the next decade is likely to further breakdown long-established obstacles within the performance space. Most recently, however, the imprint has delivered the VaporFly NEXT% 2, a minor tweak to the boundary-pushing original. For its colorway, the silhouette has reprised an “Ice Blue/University Red” palette previously seen on the ZoomFly in 2017.
At a glance, the new silhouette resembles its predecessor closely, but further inspection reveals notable updates. For starters, the upper is Elite from a re-worked mesh material that offers improved breathability. To combat any issues that may arise with such a lightweight sneaker, synthetic reinforcement has been applied to much of the shoe’s forefoot and part of its lateral mid-foot. While seemingly trivial, the pair’s ribbed laces (which will ostensibly been transported from the Zoom AlphaFly) also deliver newfound durability to the VaporFly NEXT% 2. Underfoot, ZoomX cushioning maintains its bulbous shape, while sporting a semi-yellowed style.
A Nike.com release date is currently unknown, but this runner is likely to launch ahead of summer. In the meantime, enjoy official images here beyond.
