+ Expert opinion
Nike has carefully yet sustainably optimized the Vaporfly Next%2!
The improvements relate almost exclusively to the "upper", which has been significantly upgraded with the "Engineered Mesh" and should now be even more durable, comfortable and breathable with the very good lacing, lateral overlays and slightly wider fit in the forefoot area. What has remained is the aggressive look, which is admittedly polarizing.
The exorbitant dynamics with great cushioning and very high responsiveness have also been retained thanks to the almost perfect interplay between the ZoomX midsole foam and the carbon plate. The VN2 is therefore still one of the absolute top contenders in the carbon racer segment.
However, before buying, you should take a look at the OVERALL OVERVIEW to see whether this shoe suits your own "running type" and requirements. In my opinion, it still tends to be more suitable for midfoot and forefoot runners. Good news: the RRP has been reduced by around €25 compared to its predecessor to around €250, which is of course still not really cheap...
If you are looking for a top carbon shoe with top performance, the Vaporfly Next% 2 is a worthy candidate.
+ Description
THE ELITE COMPETITION SHOE. Continue the next evolution of speed with a running
shoe designed for new goals and records. It features an updated upper for
improved comfort and breathability. Like its predecessor, the shoe's responsive
cushioning and secure support will help you achieve your best performance from
10k to marathon. Still the highest energy return yet Nike ZoomX foam delivers
Nike Running's highest energy return yet. The full-length carbon fibre plate
provides a responsive feel and freedom of movement as you run. Breathable and
soft In a reworked upper, mesh materials are placed in key areas. The result is
a softer, cooler design that adapts to your foot. Secure fit Reinforcement
along the forefoot adds durability and secure comfort. An integrated foam pad
at the heel provides additional cushioning. Lightweight padding on the tongue
reduces pressure from laces on the arch. The lacing runs through the
lightweight side sashes. This eliminates the need for an arch strap to reduce
the weight of the shoe. The wider toe area provides a roomier fit. Flex grooves
on the sole improve traction on various surfaces in diverse weather conditions.
