I am at 230 miles with mine. I never dealt with any heel slipping. Just did a double knot and everything worked great.
Yep, a pretty simple fix! Glad you like them
I use stretchy triathlon laces that I don’t need to tie up. Never had slippage
Ran 400 miles in mine. Def need to use the runner's loop for heel slippage. Very durable and a solid daily runner.
For sure! Thanks for watching
I have had six pairs (averaging 477 miles per shoe) of the Nike Invincible models and agree with your comments. I like the Invincible 3 because of its durability, and yes, I use the runner's loop to lessen the heel slippage.
You might be the mileage record holder for those shoes!
I let the heel slippage complaint stop me from buying this shoe, but after seeing your opinion on the shoe and some really good Black Friday deals, i snagged up pair. Used the runners knot and wow this is a really good shoe!
Great to hear!
I agree, this is the most durable Nike sneak I've ever run in (and I've run in countless Nike's).
I’m shocked at how well they’ve held up
@@FreshBrewRunClub- Very not Nike-like :-)
Diamond 💎 cheers for the review I’ll be coping these later on
Thanks!
A $180 should not require a runners knot but im glad it fixes the problem for most
Lots of good deals to be found out there!
So many runners complained there was too much padding on the heal, Nike listened and removed it hence ankle slippage.
Haha exactly! People got what they asked for! (Even though I thought the originals were nearly perfect)
I land on the midfoot and during slow runs these seemed pretty boring, but when I picked up the pace on a few more runs and broke the shoes in I realized how fun the shoes are. They’re pretty soft and perfect for running on sidewalks/streets
Yeah, I was surprised at varying speeds these could handle, especially for a "max cushion" shoe
Such a polarizing shoe I’ve looked at a bunch! So many people hate it, but it sounds like it might work well. Then, on the other hand, there’s the fomo of maybe the 4 coming in a couple months (guessing).
An internet site that tracks shoe releases is saying February 2024 version 4.
Yeah hoping for a spring release. You can probably find some good deals on the V3 right now, and grab the v4 when it comes out next year
Great show so far. I was recently able to score a pair at the Nike outlet for 90 bucks in a woman’s color. The color didn’t matter to me. Also no heel slip for me so far.
Awesome deal. I also don’t care about the colorways, which means I have a few very dirty white shoes!
Nice review!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Didn’t even know people where saying there was heel slippage, i retire my shoe everyday, tho they are running shoes I use them as my daily’s there great !
Yeah, it got a lot of bad publicity when it came out, but I think people have generally viewed this positively since then
For me personally as a lifetime Nike fanboy, this was the first Nike shoe where I didn’t really like it. The looks are GREAT but I felt myself having knee/ hamstring pain every time I wore these. When I switched shoes the pain went away. Im a forefoot striker, Personally the heel area has too much cushion compared to the forefoot. If the forefoot had just a little bit more cushion I’d love them but the looks aren’t enough for me to endure the knee / hamstring pain. Great shoe if you want a comfy everyday shoe for walking.
Yeah, this one had such mixed reviews. Really goes to show how everyone has different needs/wants in a shoe. I haven't bought a second pair, if that tells you anything!
Greetings, here is a short review of my experience with the nike invincible run 3 shoe. I gave this sneaker a chance 2 times, and it would have ended in returning both pairs. I've never had a problem with heel sleep on sneakers in general, let alone for running. Even though I would tie the runners knot it didn't help. I couldn't run even 1 km in them and would hate every step i took. Mostly, I can't really recommend this sneaker to anyone, even though Nike is my favorite sports brand and the zoom x foam is just 🤌. But still this heal slipping was too big of a issue for me
Totally fair.
Great review! For someone who just does easy runs, would you recommend the IR3 or 1080v13?
Thanks! For just easy runs, probably the Invincible 3. It’s a bit more cushioned and has a lot of stability (due to the width) that the 1080 doesn’t have. Plus, if you did want to pick the pace up, it can handle it without issues.
Great review!!! This is my daily shoe / marathon shoe. It fits me incredibly great. No slippage. I get 400 miles out of mine as a heel striker who weighs 185llbs. With that said - what would you recommend for a marathon racing shoe for people who love the Invincible 3?!
Thanks Brian! If you like the Invincible 3, I’d recommend the Alphafly 2. It’s what I wore last year, and has the same ZoomX foam and a high stack height like the Invincible. Any racing shoe is going to feel slightly different than a trainer, but I didn’t have any issues. I haven’t run in the new Alphafly 3, as they’re always selling out and going for a lot on the secondary market, but I think the AF2 is available. Hope this is helpful!
@@FreshBrewRunClub thanks so much! This is really helpful
I was using the infinite run 4’s for a while. They are nice but the toe box is super narrow and harder for me to run in without getting blisters. I feel like these are a more cushioned version of the IR4 with a wider toe box, even tho they are the older model.
That’s a good comparison!
No heel slipping, no double knot. Our feet are all different. I dont feel them firmer, they have more foam, more cushion, they propel you forward( a thing that does not happends always in the previous versions you go forward and sideways). The invincible's 3 have more versatility, more snap than the previous versions. In terms of completion we agree to disagree!
Hey man watched all your Invincible Run 3 videos and they've been great! I was planning on buying a pair and trying to cut the strobel board out with a knife to feel the foam more. Do you do think this would be possible based on how hard it feels? Never had them in hand before
Thanks for watching! I just took a look; I think you could cut the seams with an x-acto knife. I’m not done running in them yet, so I haven’t done that myself, but it does appear to be possible, since the seams are big enough to just cut. However, I’m not sure if it’s also glued to the midsole, which could be an issue. The strobel board doesn’t budge. To be honest, it’s a little risky, especially if there is glue that might pull up some of the foam when you try to remove the board
@@FreshBrewRunClub Ahhhh dang hadn't considered the glue aspect to it. You are probably right about destroying the foam in the process. Bummer cause the 1/2's just feel so good. Thanks for looking for me though! You got a great channel
Just got a pair from Dicks for $95. Wake up edition or something. Only had one day, but seem great for that price!
That’s a steal! Almost 50% off!
I'm looking to purchase my first running shoe (casual runner), would this be a wise shoe to get?
I would look at this one, or the Nike Pegasus. This shoe is more of a max cushion shoe, where the Pegasus is a more “neutral” shoe. I started with the Pegasus years ago, and gradually tried some other stuff before I realized I prefer max cushion
Are invincble 3 good for walks and slow jogs?
If not, what other shoes would you recommend
I’m sure they r. If not try infinite run 4s they are my fav casual shoe
Yeah, they’re great for that!
I love this shoe. I have 4 pairs
It’s a great shoe!
hey what do you mean by they aren't as fun as other shoes?
The Invincible 3 felt more like a stiffer max cushioned shoe to me, while the Invincible 1 and 2 had a pop and squish in them that I thought was fun. They were different than anything I've ever run in, and every step had a sensation that just felt fun. It's subjective, but I miss that
What are your thoughts on the weight?
For the amount of cushion you get with this shoe, it actually doesn't feel that heavy. Certainly not "light" but I liked them
horrible, fit super tight, and broken on the top after 1 month. with 50$ less go for a novablast 4. very unhappy with invincible 3. I also owned a 1 and was absolutely better. good point: the traction of the sole, also used in an urban trail and worked fine. ciao
Must be God blessed you with the worst looking feet ever.
Why exactly are you a heel striker?
It’s just always been my form, and I don’t think the effort it would take to change that after all these years is worth it
True to size ?
Yes, but I recommend a runner’s knot to prevent heel slip. It’ll feel a little loose otherwise
Do these fit true to size?
Yes!
Is this good for marathon?
If you want a lot of cushion in a marathon shoe, this would be a good option. I ran a marathon in the Invincible 2, and it was fine. Some people prefer a lighter shoe, but if comfort is your main concern, this is a great shoe.
Heel striker? Cya
Cool guy alert
Detroit!!
after 200miles which one is better? v2 or v3?
I prefer the v2 for easy runs. But I think the v3 can handle a wider variety of paces
@@FreshBrewRunClub thankss
Heal slips
Try the runner’s knot!
