FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for daily training?

While they can be used for workouts, they are specifically engineered for race-day performance and may not offer the durability required for high-mileage daily training.

What is the purpose of the Flyplate?

The carbon Flyplate provides a rigid structure that works in tandem with the foam to maximize energy return and help propel the runner forward.

How should I clean the Atomknit upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent. Avoid scrubbing or using harsh chemicals that could damage the woven fibers.

Is this shoe intended for track or road use?

The Alphafly NEXT% 3 is designed primarily for road running where its traction system and foam technology provide the most benefit.

Why is it called the Prototype version?

The Prototype colorway celebrates the testing process, with the V62 marking indicating the specific iteration of the upper fabric developed through extensive testing.

Troubleshooting

Feeling instability on uneven surfaces

The shoe is designed for smooth road surfaces; ensure you are utilizing them on appropriate terrain and focus on a stable, midfoot strike.

Upper material appears slightly discolored

The Atomknit material can attract surface dust; wipe down with a damp cloth and allow to air dry without excessive water saturation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior energy return for long-distance efficiency
  • Extremely lightweight construction
  • Responsive cushioning system
  • Advanced traction for road racing

Cons

  • Designed specifically for racing rather than durability
  • High-performance fit may not suit all foot shapes
  • Technical construction requires precise maintenance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the performance materials, avoid using these shoes as daily training footwear, as the specialized foams are tuned for racing mileage. After use, store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the midsole foam. If the shoes become damp, remove the insoles and let them air dry naturally. Do not place them in a washing machine or dryer. The Atomknit upper is delicate, so clean the fabric gently with a soft cloth and mild soap if needed, avoiding abrasive brushes that could tear the fibers.
