FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
These trainers are engineered for running performance and are not recommended for casual, everyday walking due to their specialized propulsion technology.
How do I ensure the correct fit?
The Alphafly 3 should have a snug but not tight fit through the midfoot. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space in the toe box.
Can I use these on gravel or dirt paths?
These shoes are optimized for road and track surfaces. Off-road use can damage the foam and potentially decrease the lifespan of the carbon plate.
How long will the foam last?
Performance life varies by runner weight and surface, but generally, high-performance racing foams provide optimal energy return for 200-400 miles.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Atomknit upper is designed for maximum breathability and ventilation, meaning they will not keep your feet dry in rainy conditions.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels unstable on sharp corners
The shoe has a high stack height for speed; practice cornering with shorter strides and increased focus on foot placement.
Upper material feels loose
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly through the integrated tongue system to maximize the lockdown effect of the Atomknit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Alphafly 3 trainers, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. Since these are performance racing shoes, they are not designed for daily multi-purpose wear.
- Break-in Period: Wear them for a few short, fast-paced runs before using them in a race to allow the materials to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent foam degradation.
- Drying: Air dry naturally; never place them in a washing machine or dryer, as the heat can compromise the integrity of the carbon plate and foam.
