Nike Men's Vaporfly 4 "Jakob Ingebrigtsen" Running Shoes Sail / Medium Ash

Jakob Ingebrigtsen’s subtly brilliant Vaporfly 4 is synonymous with his style and focuses on what matters most: family and finishing first. We trimmed weight all over from the previous iteration without sacrificing performance. And the carbon fiber Flyplate and ultra-responsive ZoomX foam midsole combine to give you race-day speed. The result is a more fine-tuned racing shoe that’s trusted by Jakob from the mile to the marathon.

Behind the Design

Jakob's favorite colors and repeating lines nod to his mental approach. His tattoos and gold rings inspired details that’ll shine when he kicks it into high gear. Nordic stars on insoles nod to his family.

Full Speed

The full-length carbon fiber Flyplate has a higher angle than the Vaporfly 3 and combines with a lower heel-to-toe drop to give you a propulsive feel on race day.

Lighter Foam

Nike ZoomX, our most responsive foam, just got lighter. Running from heel to toe, it unlocks even more energy return than before with a slight midsole reduction, giving you a bouncy, feathery feel.

Lighter Upper

Engineered mesh helps reduce the weight of the shoe while providing a more consistent fit. And we saved more weight by reducing the size of the heel and tongue.

Lighter Midsole and Outsole

Midsole bulges at the heel to help reduce weight on the inside of the foot to give you a more stable ride. We reduced the weight of the outsole by using a thinner rubber compared to the Vaporfly 3.

What's New About the Vaporfly 4?

We made minor tweaks so you can enjoy major gains. We trimmed inessential weight in the upper, midsole and outsole without sacrificing performance.
