Fit for the world's fastest, the Maxfly 2 is back in the starting blocks. Designed for the 100 meters to 400 meters (hurdle events too), it combines an ultra-aggressive feel with the responsiveness of an Air Zoom unit to propel the speediest sprinters on the planet. We updated the base and upper from the previous iteration to help optimize the Air Zoom unit's speed as you hightail it to the tape. This special design is inspired by The Armory in New York, where track-and-field athletes of all abilities are welcome to step into the blocks.
We took inspiration from The Armory's original oval surface color and painted it along the upper. The green accents take their cues from The Armory’s infield in the middle of the track. The blue hits originate from the athlete warm-up area. The red along the sockliners and outsole stems from The Armory’s logo. And the crisscrossed print speaks to the facility’s iconic ceiling.
Lighter and more responsive than the previous version, the carbon fiber Flyplate's shape and stiffness give you a propulsive feel. It helps keep you on your toes and minimize deceleration.
The forefoot Air Zoom unit has two chambers to give you propulsion and stability from takeoff to the tape.
We removed the middle spike from the original Maxfly and elevated the platform on the big-toe side. This helps the spikes feel more stable on straightaways and around the turn.
Nike Flyweave construction on the upper provides a secure and conforming fit for various foot shapes.
