Vaporfly NEXT%
The original Vaporfly NEXT% updates Vaporfly 4% for road races and marathons. It adds 15% more ZoomX without increasing weight and redistributes foam to reduce drop from 11mm to 8mm. Vaporweave limits rain and sweat absorption; offset lacing and internal heel foam support long-distance fit. A full-length curved carbon plate pairs with revised forefoot traction and deep outsole grooves for wet roads.
