Great comparison review. I've only got the AF1 so would like to try the AF3 down the track due to the many positive reviews, higher drop and lower weight.
Thanks for the comment!
Got my AlphaFly 3’s,but those metas look dope too.
Does that mean you are getting both? 😂😂
I am thinking to buy the nike af3 as it provides more stability on foot and more sync in feeling. More bouncy and good for my ankle too.
It's a great shoe!
oh boy.. now I have to buy both.. I was hoping you say the Asics is also good for marathon..
If you are a strong neutral runner the ASICS will be good to go for the marathon. Thanks for the comment!
How does the Endorphin Elite compare to these?
Check out my Alphafly 3 vs Endorphin Elite comparison it should give you an idea of how it differs and rides. Big point for me is the really late rocker in the Elite that I struggle to utilise properly.
Im a very new runner just ran my first 5k outside not a race just by myself. Do you think its too early for me to invest in either of these. my 5k was 24 but I'm wearing a 3 year old pair of ultraboosts that have been mu daily wear shoe for that whole time and hurt my feet a little. I want to work up to where I don't feel embarrassed to run an actual race.
Yes I think its too early to be getting carbon plated racing shoes. I'd invest in some quality daily trainers. Take a look at the ASICS Novablast 4, New Balance 1080 v13, Nike Vomero 17, Saucony Triumph 21, Brooks Glycerin 21 or Adidas Adizero SL2
@@run-are Thanks for the advice brother. I'll take your word and most of my running will be on concrete are any of those better than the other for that purpose
@@timloftus1034 They will all be fine for concrete. It will just come down to which of those feels best for you. If you can go down to your local running shoe store and try them all on.
Are the AF the female version? If so, any noticeable differences versus men’s version?
I don't believe there are any differences at all, the unisex sizing on the box gives it away.
@@run-are and the numbers on the mid sole of the shoe
@@lukehammond2443it's a sneaky tip to get yourself a pair of the AF3 when they drop again. If you know your women's size just go straight for those as the demand is far less.
I'm a new runner, been running only a bit over a year so no expert. Used the Vaporfly 2 (two pairs) and Endorphin Pro 3 and now the Metaspeed Edge Paris. The Edge are the lightest on the scale about 20g lighter than VF. I tried on VF3 and the arch was too high for me. VF2 arch is ok when running despite feeling a touch high initially. VF feel a touch more bouncy at lower speeds, but when running 36min 10km when trying out the Edge they felt amazingly quick and light. The edge is a fair bit firmer though. I just ran my first Marathon, in 2.52 in the Edge, and no foot pain or fatigue, no sore spots, no lack of stability - felt great. I have a wide foot, and run 185 cadence at 4min/km marathon pace - midfoot to slightly rear foot striker. Couldn't get a pair of AF3 to try, but worry about the arch and that they may need a forefoot strike?
You definitely don't need to be a forefoot striker for the AF 3 to work, it sounds like your issue is your arch height. From what you have said I am guessing you have a fairly low arch. I can't feel the arch in the VF 3 or VF 2.
@@run-are yeah ok. I can feel the arch in the VF2 but it's minor and not an issue when running. But trying on the VF3 there was no way they were going to work for me, 2x moreso for the AlphaFly2. Not sure if the AF3 is higher or lower than VF3 or AF2?
@@domd2304 the arch feels higher in the AF 3, not much though
@@run-are if it's higher than the vf3 then it won't work for me :(
" I have a wide foot, and run 185 cadence at 4min/km marathon pace "... OK, but What was your average stride length?
So confusing to me because based on the reviews you couldn’t go wrong with most of these race shoes. But my top choices so far are Sky Paris, Edorohin Pro 4 & Hoka Cielo X. Which one of these three shoes & AF3 are more stable in your experience?
The Endorphin Pro 4 is the most stable in my experience, I haven't run in the HOKA Cielo X yet.
@@run-are thank you. That’s my number one choice too
The Alphafly looking so cheap in comparison to the asics.
Nike always has poor build quality..
Thanks for the comment!
