THOMAS: The Nike Zoom Fly has been 0-for-5 with me. It at all times appears nice, however I at all times thought it felt like a brick. Sure, even the v2 with the Flyknit higher. It was designed as one of many first tremendous trainers, meant as a coaching associate to the Vaporfly or, at minimal, a price range various. It could have been a coach, but it surely was by no means tremendous. The foams simply by no means labored, and the title Zoom Fly turned synonymous with a inflexible and blocky shoe. Once I noticed the Zoom Fly 6 and the guarantees it promised, I assumed, “Right here we go once more.” Nonetheless, I did just like the design and the intention behind the coach. So, with fingers crossed, I went out for a 12-mile tempo run, hoping that this is able to be the coach it at all times aspired to be.
As a facet word, we normally get footwear given to us in return for a assessment, however Nike solely had ladies’s samples on the time; on this case, I bought the Zoom Fly 6 for full retail on Nike.com.

So, let’s discover out if that’s the case with the Zoom Fly 6.
