Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 4 Jakob A. Ingebrigtsen
The Nike ZoomX Vaporfly NEXT% 4 “Jakob A. Ingebrigtsen” is a limited-edition elite marathon racing shoe designed for maximum speed, efficiency, and race-day performance. This special collaboration colorway pays tribute to Norwegian distance runner Jakob Ingebrigtsen, combining a refined Sail/Light Ash/Metallic Gold palette with Nike’s latest Vaporfly 4 racing platform.
The upper uses an ultra-lightweight engineered mesh construction, built for a snug, race-specific fit that minimizes weight while maintaining secure lockdown. It’s designed to feel tight and efficient, helping reduce energy loss over long distances.
Underfoot, the shoe features ZoomX foam, Nike’s most responsive cushioning, paired with a full-length carbon fiber Flyplate. This combination delivers strong forward propulsion and high energy return, helping runners maintain faster paces with less effort over 5K to marathon distances. The updated Vaporfly 4 geometry improves transitions and overall stability compared to earlier versions, especially at high speeds.
The outsole uses strategic rubber placement to balance grip and weight savings, optimized for road racing conditions. Overall, this model is strictly built for competition, not daily training, making it one of Nike’s top-tier marathon shoes.
