Nike ZoomX Invincible Run Flyknit 3 Women's Running Shoes
Confide in a shoe designed to reduce injury and keep you running. Specifically made to offset the wear and tear of your toughest training runs and races, it sports a slab of thick cushioning to help you stay on your feet today, tomorrow and beyond. Engineered to the exact specifications of championship athletes, ultra-responsive and lightweight ZoomX foam helps keep you on the run. It's super springy and bouncy so that you can propel down your preferred path with a compelling pace and come back for your next run feeling ready and reinvigorated. Bill Bowerman, Nike's original innovator, put their blueprint in place. He inspired the Blueprint collection design details, like the speckled Swoosh logo and sketches of feet on the insole. As a reminder of where Nike have been as they keep moving forward.
Flyknit Upper
Flyknit uppers will encase each foot in breathable comfort. Perforations across the forefoot and midfoot increase airflow creating a healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. The breathable construction seamlessly integrates high breathability with stretch and support where you need it the most, adapting to the changing shape of your foot as it moves through the gait cycle. Three distinctive layers keep the foot secure whilst providing a lightweight and flexible feel so you can go further for longer with comfort and support. Flyknit is more durable than ever and works with your foot's natural motion to ensure lightweight support. To the back of the shoe, a heel clip provides an abundance of stability and support, this has been made smaller and located in a more precise area than the previous model, helping you through your run. This will keep your foot in a firm, upright position and keep the rearfoot locked in place. At the collar, cushioning offers a soft and comfortable feel to reduce the risks of chafing and irritation. The upper also includes a traditional lacing system that locks down the midfoot so you can enjoy distraction-free strides and finally, reflective details enhance visibility in low-light conditions.
ZoomX Foam MidsoleUltra-light and super-responsive, the midsole material delivers Nike's greatest energy return yet; it absorbs impact and then expels it for a bounce-like effect. This energy-return technology reduces superfluous muscle power, diminishing fatigue and enhancing performance, keeping you going for longer. The revolutionary ZoomX foam is manufactured from Pebax, a product conventionally used in plastic bridges and other moulded parts, and yields cushioning that is not only lightweight but soft and springy. Until now, these three characteristics (collectively) have proven nearly impossible to achieve. Pebax has a lower density than some thermoplastic alternatives making it lighter, flexible, and more impact-resistant, whilst giving it a higher capacity for energy return. When blown into a foam these properties remain, gifting a lively underfoot feeling that encourages you to run fast. Signalling the incredible resilience of ZoomX, the tiny creases occurring on every midsole do not impact the foam's performance; these beauty marks are a result of the autoclave process, which places the foam under extreme heat and pressure. The ZoomX sheets are then compressed in a Phylon preform which shapes the midsole parts. Because the special foam is so lightweight (one-third the weight of Cushlon), Nike can use more of it to separate your foot from the road; this means you get a thick and supportive midsole that will spare your joints as you strike down onto hard, unforgiving concrete. Shaped like a rocker, the foam supports the 3 phases of a runner's stride. It offers flexibility when your foot rises off the ground, a smooth ride when your foot is moving forward, and cushioning at ground contact. As well as this, the midsole has been made wider which offers a more stable ride and the stack height has als
