Nike Women's Vaporfly 4 Road Running Shoes

About This Item

The Vaporfly 4 is a lean, mean, mile-eating machine. Nike® trimmed weight in the midsole, outsole and upper from the Vaporfly 3 without sacrificing performance. The result is a lighter, more propulsive all-around racing shoe that’s trusted from the mile to the marathon.

What’s New:

  • A higher angle of the plate and lower heel-to-toe drop compared to the Vaporfly 3 give you an improved propulsive feel
  • Upgraded Nike® ZoomX foam provides even more energy return than before thanks to a slight midsole reduction, giving you a bouncy, feathery feel
  • Nike® reduced the weight of the outsole by using a thinner rubber compared to the Vaporfly 3, eliminating unnecessary thickness

Design:

  • Engineered mesh offers improved comfort and a disappearing feel on your foot, reducing the weight of the shoe while supplying a more consistent fit
  • The handwritten number on the midsole salutes the wear-testers who put these shoes through our rigorous test process to give you the best performance possible
  • Reduced weight on the inside of the foot to give you a more stable ride

In-Shoe Comfort:

  • A full-length carbon fiber Flyplate provides a propulsive, racing feel
  • ZoomX foam runs heel to toe to give you a springy, bouncy feel

Durability & Traction:

  • Waffle outsole pattern with perforations saves weight and delivers multi-surface traction in various weather conditions

Additional Details:

  • Weight: 152 g/5.3 oz (Women's US 8)
  • Heel-to-toe drop: 6 mm
  • Brand : Nike
  • Country of Origin : Imported

Expensive Shoes, Painful Fit

Nike should fix the sizing instead of telling runners to go up half a size. In my experience, a full size up would have been more accurate. I bought these expensive shoes in November 2025 and gave them several chances before reaching this conclusion. I wore them for a 4-mile run, a 15K, and a few easy runs before finally using them for a half marathon in March 2026. Early on, I started getting blisters under my arches, which almost never happens to me. Then during the half marathon, around mile 5, both of my toenails started to hurt. After I finished and took off my socks, I realized I had lost two toenails for the first time in my life. Yes, the shoes felt light, but that does not make up for the poor fit and the damage they caused. For the price, this was extremely disappointing. These shoes were not worth it for me.

Marathon Shoe

A great upgrade! Love the new Zaporfly. My marathon shoe of choice. Has to size up from last version.

Doesn’t Last For Long Distance Runners

These shoes lasted 10 weeks of track season before the heel came off.

One Of The Great Running Shoes Out There

Lighter and bouncier than advertised. Really enjoy the feel. I have thin feet so fit is perfect.

Super Shoe

Super light and your feet don’t overheat. I fly when I wear these! Marathon tested!

Super Light And Fast Show

Love this shoe, super light, great springy foam and noticeable performance during runs in terms of speed and energy expenditure. Not super stable, and I hesitate to put a lot of miles on them, but great racing shoe for 3-4 mile runs.

Need More Time

I finally put these on today while the roads were somewhat dry. I didn’t go very far, and I need to figure out if I should wear them again before my first half of the year in about a month. My running partner thought I was faster. They are super light which is a nice change up. By the end I did feel good about the performance.

Fantastic Running Shoe!

Fantastic shoe. Super lightweight. Beautiful pink color. Great for the trade mill running during winter months. Love Nike because I have a narrow foot and asics are too wide for me. I’m an older runner so anything lighter will be best for me.
