Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 4 Ghost

Built for serious racing, the Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 4 in Ghost Persian Violet, Football Grey, and Blue Void is fine-tuned to be the lightest Vaporfly yet without compromising performance. The upper is crafted from breathable mesh, keeping it ultralight and well-ventilated. The mesh upper provides a snug fit while remaining flexible for natural movement. The midsole combines Nike’s ZoomX foam, renowned for its excellent energy return, with a full-length carbon plate, providing an efficient and propulsive ride. A thin rubber outsole, present only under the forefoot, provides excellent grip even at maximum speeds. What our experts love about the Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 4 is its ultralightweight construction, designed for pure speed. From the high-energy ZoomX foam to the steeply angled carbon fiber plate, every detail in this runner is fine-tuned to help runners push their limits. The runner retailed for $260 when it was released on April 24, 2025.
