Phantom 3
Phantom 3 is a cushioned neutral road trainer for daily miles, long runs and walking. It retains Phantom 2's two-piece midsole but updates the ZipFoam formula for a lighter build and more responsive cushioning. A soft foot-facing layer sits above a firmer base. The streamlined engineered-mesh upper uses 30% recycled material, with a roomy toe box and a snug midfoot and heel.
- Intended uses:
- Daily, Long run

Weight measurement and plate details
- Weight note
- The Japanese distributor's exact Phantom 3 men's block and Italy's exact M063 page both list 261 g for men's M9; women's W7 213 g is separate. The Italian page also contains inconsistent 296-to-280 g comparison prose, which is not adopted over the explicit sample-specific 261 g table.
- Plate note
- The current exact official Italy M063 page provides full dual-density ZipFoam, rubber outsole, upper, insole and core specifications. Fleet Feet's exact men's construction corroborates it without identifying carbon. Retain carbon_plate:false without relying on the retired JP PDP; presence or absence of any other non-carbon plate is not asserted.
