Nike Alphafly 3 Pick Up The Pace White Crimson

Nike Alphafly 3 Pick Up The Pace White Crimson

Some shoes ask you to run. The Nike Alphafly 3 Pick Up The Pace White Crimson doesn't ask. Released December 2, 2025, this Alphafly 3 carries the most direct message Nike has ever printed on a super shoe — the colorway of runners who need no further instruction.

White and Crimson have always been the colors of racing urgency. On the Alphafly 3 platform, that urgency is backed by ZoomX foam and dual Air Zoom pods.

ZoomX + Dual Air Zoom Pods + Carbon Plate: Three Propulsion Systems

ZoomX foam is Nike's lightest and most responsive compound — PEBA-based, engineered for maximum energy return. Dual forefoot Air Zoom pods add explosive propulsion at toe-off, amplifying the foam's return with mechanical force. The full-length carbon fiber plate locks the system together, directing every joule of energy forward.

Atomknit 3.0 upper: ultra-light woven fit that locks in at race pace. 218 g. 8 mm drop. 40 mm heel stack. Built for one purpose — the fastest possible marathon.

Who it's for

For competitive runners targeting marathon and half-marathon PRs. Best reserved for goal races and race-specific sessions by athletes running 60+ km/week.
