I HAD TO RE-UPLOAD THE VIDEO...SO SORRY FOR THE DOUBLE UPLOAD! - กีฬา
Thanks for the support everyone! Over 1500 subscribers! I hope to give you guys more content soon!
Jamison Michael do a review on the vapormax
Jamison Michael I picked up the Obsidian ones today, can’t wait!😁
Hey Jamie,how many miles you put on your shoes before discarding them for running.
Finally a someone that reviews the 4% for running, not walking.
Kuya BL I mean I could show you how they look with different outfits. 😏 I try to focus more so on the running/training functionality of the shoes. Thanks for watching!
clear cut straight to the point, no b.s. my type of review. thanks man. def makes me want to try out the shoe for myself. you'll be the one responsible for taking me to a Nike store to try it out. If I make the purchase it's all you. Nike should be paying you. Not some robot lookin employee with no enthusiasm nor emotions whatsoever.
hahaha Thanks bro, I appreciate you saying that. Im glad I could help. I think you'll like them though. Definitely worth at least trying them.
SORRY! I HAD TO RE-UPLOAD the video! #Re-Like?
S'all good! I was really confused, I saw it uploaded and then it was gone, lol. Thanks!

Thanks, I am waiting for the delivery of my Vapor Fly 4%'s and appreciate the honest review here today.
Thank you very much for the review.
I enjoy Lunarglide 8 and was thinking of having another pair from Nike.
Great video! Thanks for the review man 👍🏼 I'm definitely interested in trying them out.
Thank you for informative reviews, you're the best!
TheGreatblizzard I appreciate it!i thank you
Came here just to watch your review of the shoe, but your content is really good, so I ended up watching your videos for a good hour - You sir, have the potential to become really big on here, so keep up the good work!
Mads Emil Munksgaard I really appreciate it bro, I'm still relatively new, so it's really motivating to have that kind of support! Appreciate it.
I'm a bit late to the zoom fly /vaporfly game...I was wearing New Balance racing flats (1400, 1500, etc) exclusively until I developed plantar fasciitis and although that's typically something you don't fix with a shoe change I had to look for an alternative to some cushioning or protection while I heal from PF. I heard a running friend talk about the Pegasus Turbo, decided to give it a try using Nike's try for 30 days offer, and I'm happy to say I have not looked back. Aside from the shoe providing some needed relief to my heels, the feel, responsiveness, lightness, makes the Turbo and zoom fly amazing shoes. Can't wait to try out the vaporfly some day. Thanks for the concise yet quick review! Cheers!
Omg u only have 7k Subs i watched a few vids and this channel is awesome . Keep it up with the good work!
thanks, getting subs are hard nowadays. but then again i dont upload every day...so its hard to get noticed around here! lol
Good review. Thanks.
Please do a follow-up on the resilience/durability of the ZoomX and React foams. Given their light weights - and so presumably lack of density - will they quickly bottom out like the Lunarlon, or will they retain their shape better, somewhat similar to Boost?
So some answers to some of your points:
No flywire? So that single layer of memory foam fabric has been used for Nike racing spikes and road racing shoes since 2016 because flywire can dig into feet at high speed, so nike came up with this material to lock down the foot like flywire without digging into the feet.
ZoomX has more energy return than boost? So independent testing put the boost at 70% (which was market leading) and ZoomX at 82%
Does Vaporfly 4% make you 4% faster? Kind off. So that figure comes from an study by a university (which I will link below) which showed that peoples heart rate drops by an average of 4% at a given speed for people than in the nike streak 6. So the theory is that say if someones heart rate was at 180bpm, then in the Vaporfly they will run at a faster speed than in a streak 6. I have been testing the heart rate and I have been getting a 6-7% drop in my bpm than when I was in the Streak 6. Even my coach has notice how fresh and at easy I look running in the Vaporfly 😁.

Ciaran Saunders you my friend...got the answers😀 thanks for spreading the knowledge!
Ciaran Saunders I ran a 19:40 5k in regular shoes and with these I ran 10 seconds faster so I mean I guess it works
crazy that these sold out so fast, considering that hefty price tag. Smart marketing on Nike's part, the hype will build
Brian Simonetti I have a conspiracy theory that this whole breaking2 thing was rigged. They hyped up the event, created shoes. Had celebrities and big athletes involved. Teased the shoe, came out with breaking2 color ways of other shoes...delayed the release of the actual shoe to draw more hype. Then overcharged for it...and by not actually breaking the 2hr barrier ...it's rigged so that They could come out with a sequel shoe and attempt it again and sell another "breaking2 part 2" shoe".....it was all planned. 😩#conspiracy #Breaking2Gate
You realize the world record is 2:02:57. These guys don't even know if it's possible to go sub-2, and if they did, the athletes still put years of training for this specific marathon. Dropping their marathon time by a few minutes at a professional level is insane! Can't disagree with the hype though. I also disliked that marketing. And yes, new shoes will be made, not just because they didn't break 2 hours, but also because Nike does make improvements with most models of it's running shoes. I don't think this would be too much of an issue if they weren't so overpriced.
ur form has improved a good bit well done
Great video! You'll be big bro, mark my words
Great review. Thanks!
Nice review!!
Sean Go damnnn says the one who did the review too
Thanks Sean! appreciate you watching. I enjoyed yours too!
Very good Review, keep up the good work :)
Detailed and honest review! Hope you get big and sponsored soon
that be great, right now im just to trying to collaborate with others. RizKnows reached out. Believe in the Run has been a great help too.
Another great vid man! Keep it up
Thanks! Gonna try to keep them coming!
Really like the reviews you have been putting up! As a college cross country and track runner, one of the main things I hear a lot is “NEVER BUY NIKE AS RUNNING SHOES”, but after watching the Nike Epic React and Vaporfly 4%, you have really got me questioning if I should try a pair. Keep up the good work and keep the content coming! #MaryBethOrNaw
Thanks! yeah nike gets a bad rep..but you know #AllBrandsMatter. good luck this season!
Bro,
Clean ass review!
good review and video, btw!
Amazing! Thank you so much for this video!! I was lucky and could buy them in a Nike Outlet for €55!!
Nice review!
Damn this dude ran across the country like forest gump 😂
Ourous I did it for Jenny😏
Jamison, you seem to get your hands on the newest shoes as they come out. So I am asking you this question, plus I value your opinion. I have been running in the Vaporfly 4%. Do you think the new Adidas adios Sub2's will be a more practical shoe, maybe even better than the Nike Vaporfly ? Thank you.
Hey u got one k subs d be happy yo !!! Btw we were here since day one just in case u got filthy famous XD
Nishimiya Is waifu Haha you're right! You are one of the day ones!
When this video came out I just had to see it!! I'm really into new running tech, and this video didn't disapoint. Like always your reviews are really good and informative! #thebest #MaryBethOrNah
your comment is #JamisonApproved
most comfortable shoe I've ever worn.bought them for comfort and style though not running
great vid!!!!
Rarely ever comment on videos, but it's nice to see a performance review on this, so thank you for this!
Seeing in your video that you're more of a forefoot striker, any idea on whether you feel it may be an issue for those who land on their midfoot or heel?
I think a midfoot striker would benefit best with this shoe. The shoe almost pushes you foward to where if you land on the midfoot. If someone heel strikes in the shoe i feel like that carbon plate will start to bother them after awhile. Its hard to explain, but Im guessing since Nike made this shoe for the "fast" runners who likely have better form than the casual runner, its configured to work best toward the runners with the "correct" foot strike. which would be more of a midfoot striker. Im far from a heel striker, so i cant say for sure. I felt fine coming off more on my forefoot.
thanks for your input! I am a bit of a heel and midfoot striker (I tend to make adjustments to land on the midfoot as I run), so I am curious as to whether heel striking will bother me, and i don't run everyday (3x a week) neither. any thoughts on whether the shoe is worth trying at the least would be helpful!
which do you think is better. This shoes of the zoom fly?
It’s also important to note that technically the Zoom fly, and the vayporfly are racing shoes. The term ‘flats’ would be deceptive because of how bulky they are, but a training model of the shoe would most likely feature more support, and even better cushioning, but at the expense of some energy return.
Subscribed 👌🏼 👌🏼 👌🏼
Thank you. I really do appreciate it.
You inspired me to take running more serious, I’ll start a Chanel someday soon and hopefully we can run together sometime
I thought about getting a pair for the nostalgia
did this shoe last long like more then one race so far my zoom fly last and last so curious since youve had this shoe for a while
Okay, so I finally got my pair, copped off of Eastbay, I just don't know why they made the mid foot so narrow, how many guys have an arch that high to accommodate that fit. Now I'm stuck with the decision on to keep or return them
Will these ever be restocked? Great review.
Rob Scherer i think Nike is already working on the updates to the vaporfly 2 and zoom fly 2. So I think restocks May a bit leee frequent. Even the. Only a few stores get restocks. Sometimes running warehouse will get some, but people are quick to buy them.
Awesome review Jamison! What program do you use to edit your videos?
Cody Casserly thanks! I Switch between Final Cut Pro and adobe premiere. Im by no means a “video editor” ...I just watch a lot of “how to” videos on TH-cam with some of graphics and stuff.
Thanks for the quick response! Keep up the good work!
Compare to Pegasus 34, which one you choose?
Nice shoe, but its hard to justify the price of these shoes, the Ultra boosts are literally $60-$70 cheaper than these...no way I would chose these over Ultra Boost. I do like the new Zoom X technology, its very intriguing. Hopefully we will see in the Pegasus or even the Vomero shoes down the road. Also great review Jamison!
dimension7623 thanks! That's exactly what I'm hoping for, a Pegasus with zoomX would be great. A vomero would be good too. Something at a reasonable price point.
Jamison Michael hi great review, I hope there will be a follow-up review. did footlocker and finishline etc carry these? and what about the other color did those release I'm only seeing videos in this colorway.
Ray A there's a black pair with with that same red-ish strip on the midsole. I actually have that color in the zoomfly. But most people know if the "breaking2" colorway..so I just used the standard color to not confused people in the thumbnail 😕 I'm sure they'll be more colors coming. Eventually.
Better than Pegasus’ zoom technology and Pegasus shoes?
Awesome review and very helpful! I was able to get a pair on launch date last week but have not been able to proof test it yet, I'll be in America soon to pick it up. My question for you is how "slow" of a runner are you? And how many times a week do you train? Thanks a lot and I hope I'll be able to get the same impressions as yourself. Greetings from Buenos Aires
MrSergio021080 thanks! And I'm sure you'll like it, it's definitely fun to run in....and I can't tell you how slow I am. People make fun of me enough in these comments...can't give them a new reason 😅
Jamison Michael no problem, I totally understand you! I consider myself a slow runner too, and I was hoping I can set another sub 36' in 10K as I did at the beginning of the year. This time I am hoping this shoe can give a little extra punch to achieve it.
if i wear them loose tied with the lace tips sticking out the top eyelit (i.e. not tied), do i need to go full size down?
Is it better than the epic react?
#marybethornah love this review the most! I didnt know there is this new zoom x cushion before I watched this video. keep it up! thanks for your reviews from a runner's perspective
Hey Jami, with zoomX supposedly coming to the pegasus and other shoes this year, I have become very curious about it. How has it done durability wise? Like, does the cushion bottom out fast or last quite a while like boost would?
Kaden Sanderson out of everyone that I know who has the shoe the average life is about 300 miles. The cushion does get some creasing, but it affects the shoe more aesthetically than it is performance wise. The turbo won’t be as quite squishy, and should last longer. It drops in August so we shall see
Jamison Michael awesome, that's what I like to hear! I don't really care for any creasing of foam or materials and such, as long as it lasts relatively long and performs well in that span! I mean, it's nice to have good looking shoes but at the end of the day, they're just a pair of shoes. Knowing that they should last a while though, the turbo is very quickly becoming my most anticipated shoe this year and I can't wait to try it out! Thanks for the info!
Review it agai after say 2-3months? Just to see if the zoom bottomed out
Spar Valencia yeah I'll have to! Hopefully it they fixed it....cause icee all know how long lunar last..😒
Interesting shoe :)
Любовь Ломоносова not as interesting as the brooks beast
I couldn get this pair of shoe in India can u please let me know we to buy it
Is it a Neutral shoe ? Nike needs to make high-end Snickers for people that pronate.
Probably gonna get these for 800 meter in track in a couple months. Any good Nike shoes for Cross Country?
Uzair Lodhi I always like the Nike victory XC spikes, for cross country races. But some people run in racing flats like a brooks t7 racer, and some like a lightweight training shoe like a new balance pace v2. It's all preference depending on the surface you will be running on and how comfortable you feel wearing a different style shoe
Like a spring!.
So Zoom X is just some kind of new foam? Has nothing to do with Zoom airbags?
Eddard Snark yeah..I'm not sure why they even called it "zoom" since it's just a foam. Like lunar.
Lol damn. Even Lunar X would have been a less confusing name, albeit equally unoriginal.
Jamison Michael the name Zoom has always been given to shoes that fall under the Fast & Responsive performance line. Granted most if not all zoom shoes have carried the zoom "air bags" so I can see how it's confusing but "Zoom Air" is that actual name of that technology. In this instance, the word 'Zoom' in the technology ZoomX or even the shoe Zoom Fly is used to denote that these shoes fall under the Fast & Responsive line of performance running shoes.
Fair enough
What's that kanye west instrumental
Jami, do you keep this model or returned it finally?
I actually sold it about a week ago or so ago. Stores are constantly running out of stock so someone offered me way more than what the shoe was worth (to me), so I made the deal. on the bright side the funds allowed me to get my computer fixed to make more videos (the reason I went about a month with no uploads).
with how expensive the shoe is and the new midsole material, do you feel like these might bottom out fairly quickly
MrJdub905 only time will tell! I'll probably do an update video on the wear and tear of the material. I'm hoping it does.
Can You make a video in a running test like 2k with the nike 4% Abd 2k with for example adidas adizero adios 2
Juanito Master i could test if the shoe actually does make me 4% faster. We'll see what I can do.
Great!!! Thanks a lot ;) i think will be better in a 5k test or more
Little off topic here, but what's the name of the navy blue Nike t-shirt you're wearing? Love the videos, some of the best/honest shoe reviews I've seen - keep it up!
thanks. Im actually about to go meet up for a run, but I'll try to look on the actual tag to find out what particular model the shirt it is. I have like 7 of them, you'd think i know what im wearing..but yeah, ill check for you later!
Jamison Michael holy that response time! Thanks for checking - it looks like a Dri-FIT knit, but I thought I'd ask. Enjoy the run!
Gibson Graham Nike Dri-fit Knit Men's Running Shirt 717758 459
You've got a sprinter stride although this was made for distance running. Not hating but this might have impacted the review in some way.
Lol thanks, don’t look too much into the form. I’ve seen forms of all kinds, including collegiate distance runners who run similar to me, and sprinters who run like “distance runners” form. It’s a cool to have visuals to make the reviews different, but I get comments all time about my form, my guest’s form, or whatever lol I’ll likely just start posting regular videos of me just holding up the shoe and talking to help people focus on the shoe and not the details of everything else 😅
My eyes turned to dinner plates when you said 250
Is there any difference between the regular zoom & the zoom 4%?
JT mareZ the zoomFly uses lunar foam, the vaporfly uses zoomX foam, and shoes like the Pegasus use air Zoom units.
ZoomX provides a high energy return like boost and is super light
Lunar is just soft and kinda light
Zoom is just air bags that gives you a little bit of springy sensation cushioni .
Hoka one one
I bought a pair in a size 11, which is the size I usually get in Nikes but they are too big for me... only wore them once. They were so hard to get and feel great, too bad they couldn't get the sizing right...
Sylvain Bauge that stinks, you can always sell them. return them. Out then up on Facebook marketplace for sell/trade. The updated 2.0 version comes out toward the end of the year, maybe you can just use that money for the newer version
Jamison Michael thanks a lot! Will version 2 be any better?
Sylvain Bauge it’s just going to have a slightly modified upper, a little more secure. The midsole setup
There is a ton of “pop” in this shoe. There’s a major noticeable difference going from these to my normal racing flats. You can feel the forward progression on these. And yes, it’s an unfair advantage if you don’t have a racing shoe with a carbon plate. Trust me, you’ll want it for any races 3k and over. And yes, it does make you faster.
**Every** company claims to reinvent the wheel every couple of years with some new model, with these two shoes Nike has come pretty damn close. I'll never spend $250 on ANY pair of shoes, but the $150 one will be mine sooner or later.
yeah the nike zoomFly is a fair price. NO running shoe is worth $250 unless it comes with a guaranteed Personal record, a 2 year replacement warranty, and a 2 tickets to a beyonce concert...and I dont even like beyonce, but at least I'll feel validated about the price 😐
p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica}
LOL@tickets to a beyonce concert
still... nice cadence
Great form
Thanks. I've been told I have good form and the worst form ever seen. lol
These fit true to size my man?
RV510 yes sir! True to size. You'll be good to go!
How can I buy shoes in the video?
대한건아임당 most online retailers are sold out, but there should be a restock for most of them around holiday. You can also try eBay but it will likely be even more expensive
How is the durability for the NIKE VAPORFLY 4%? Can I run in it everyday?
i have a pair and run pretty consistently daily. they hold up really well, although i am starting to notice that the white portion on the bottom of the show peels away after continuous usage. this doesnt affect the performance of the shoe though.
Is this shoe much better than the Zoom Fly performance wise?
Michael Fong I would say so, it’s not gonna take someone from good to great, but it does have a much faster, more comfortable cushioning. To me it’s overall better than the zoom fly...but is it worth the price tag/resell value, nah. At the end of the day it’s still a shoe, and you still gotta train. Some people think these shoes are magic or something. 😅
It’s worth if you’re already in good shape and you’re interested in longer road races. I would say may 10k and up
Jamison Michael thank you. I find the zoom fly's plate stiff.
How is the fit? forefoot width? toebox room?
HyperOpticalSaint surprisingly the forefoot width was wide enough for a decent toe splay. Wasn't as tight like in some other nikes. 😏
its sucks.all nike shoes notorious with a small squeeze toe box. i had two runs in this shoes,and my toenail almost fell off.even i got one size larger size what i usually use. no nike again thanks
i would melt in these shoe they are so fly
#marybethornah one of the first vids I watched, and kept me on this channel. Keep up the great reviews, please and thank you.
Where can u get them ?
alex muchnik online, sold pretty much everywhere including Nike official online store
finally
#MaryBethOrNah These shoes are so cool!
Simpler times
I don't like that carbon plate ,because shoe is so stiff and I won't pay 250$ ,I rather buy two pairs of Nike LunarEpic FlyKnit 1 model is like sock and no carbon plate ,but still not to soft and just enough cushioning for long runs and easy for ultra marathons ,I already have 2 100milers in my LunarEpicFlyKnit and upper side is like new ,but my soles are little bit thinner but still enough for another.200miles..Also Salomon S lab Sonic 2,I those.shoes I have 10marathons and.7 halfs and lots of training miles,still great shoe responsive and fast ,light and breathable and also I can run easy trails with them.So if you give me that Nike shoes for 50$ I'll take it ,but only because I will sell them and buy me another Lunar Epic or Slab Sonic2....
Okay, first off, you don't just decide after being skeptical, to 'find out how they are', given that they were sold out in mere seconds upon release.
Brian Coyle Yeah.
#MaryBeThorNah best running shoe in my opinion!
Do you think Nike can incorporate zoom ex into basketball shoes like boost in basketball shoes
Maybe, I think for basketball Nike made their "REACT" cushioning. it's suppose to be essentially what zoomX is doing but for basketball. Never tried it, but they're marketing as their "energy return/boost-like" cushioning for their basketball line. the Superfly & Hyperdunk 2017 has it as far as I know. Whether ZoomX goes into anything outside of running...only time will tell. Im just waiting for ZoomX to make it into another running shoe lol
Make a foot shaped toe box please
Puppy Casey okay, I’ll let Nike know at the next conference call! ☝️🤨
Jamison Michael thanks :)
Thats called a "lemme break my ankle" shoe
Will any brands make a "bla bla 5%" ?
probably skechers. it'll cost 50% cheaper and sell 90% less shoes .
Jamison Michael wait wait....
To all my fellow runners out there. Do you think these Vapor Fly running shoes are the real deal, or just another gimmick by Nike? Many thanks.
Almosy running a marathon in 2hrs, wtf, it would probably take me 2 days...
If I tried hurdling like you did in this, I'd end up in a wheelchair. Being spoon-fed Jello. By a hot blonde.
The audio track was annoying, made it hard for me to hear you talk
What's good of a shoe when you can't buy it in stores or online. Typical Nike all marketing but can't deliver the goods..literally.
These running shoes prices are getting ridiculous. I kinda understand when they jack up the prices of basketball shoes they gotta pay Lebron, Kobe and Jordan. But for running shoes? R&D cost is probably not even half of what they pay Lebron James. Maybe I’m missing something here any famous runner that pay ridiculous amount of money?
they created hype by doing a "big" running event in trying to break the world record/2hrs in the marathon. So they designed the "perfect" shoe. The guys they had running in it ran really fast times and one ran faster than the "official world record." So after that happened they used that hype and gave all of their other sponsored runners the shoe. Running fanatics all wanted to see how amazing they were for themselves. Nike made the shoe very limited, which created hype. The shoe is an excellent shoe in my opinion, but the prices are ridiculous. I think basketball has much more hype overall because of the players. runners are that famous...whereas NBA stars are known by even non-basketball fans.
Anyone notice a popping sounds while walking or running in the shoe? I've had 2 pairs (size 9 and size 9.5 for Boston) and both have a popping sound in them. Please let me know. i will be doing a review on these shoes on youtube, but already wrote a review on my blog at triguy1978.com
great shoe but man... 250$ for a shoe made in china out of plastic? Thats waay to much.. I already find the Ultra boost with 180 overpriced...
Aulelo facts. All of these shoes are overpriced, but at the same time companies know their value, so they sell it for what they can get. $250 is a monthly car payment 😐
It has Carbon fibre in it, do you know how much Carbon fibre cost?
#marybethornah!!!!!!!
Are u out of your freaking mind Nike? $200 dollars for a pair of running shoes? Thats why i hate Nike and Adidas! Hype and more Hype!
