Nike ZoomX Dragonfly Design and Construction
The Nike ZoomX Dragonfly is a track running spiked shoe designed for versatility and speed. These shoes are suitable for a variety of race distances, from 1500m to 10,000m on the track. The upper is a single-layer mesh that wraps the foot well and has a little stretch, but not enough to require readjustment after warm-ups or stretches. The lightweight mesh upper provides the breathability and support needed for long distance running.
Technical features
The Nike ZoomX Dragonfly features a ZoomX midsole, the same one seen in the Nike Vaporfly and Alphafly. This material provides exceptional cushioning and a soft underfoot feel, which is quite unusual for a trail shoe. Despite its softness, the ZoomX foam is remarkably resilient and efficient, which helps protect the legs during longer runs.
In addition to the ZoomX foam, the Dragonfly also features a PEBAX spike plate that runs the entire length of the shoe. The PEBAX spike plate acts as a sort of rigid lever. This means that when you run and apply force to the shoe, the PEBAX spike plate helps maximize that force, propelling you forward more efficiently. This translates into a more responsive shoe, which means you can feel an extra boost or "bounce" when you run.
Despite this stiffness and aggressiveness (in terms of performance), the shoes still maintain the feel of a fairly comfortable trail shoe. This means that while they are designed for speed and efficiency, they still provide the comfort and support you would expect from a spikeless trail shoe.
The shoes include 6 removable spikes made of stainless steel with a height of 6.35mm. The weight of the shoes is around 125 grams, making them extremely light for a track shoe.
Performance and durability
The Nike ZoomX Dragonfly has proven to be durable and resilient, even after many miles of use it remains responsive and lightweight, providing good support and optimal energy return during training and competition.
The Nike ZoomX Dragonfly is an elite racing shoes that offers an impressive combination of underfoot protection and responsiveness. Despite their hefty price tag, their performance has proven to be worth it. They are ideal for runners with solid mechanics who are looking for speed and versatility on the track.
