Nike’s Zoom Fly family has always boasted speedy, futuristic designs and exemplary performance. From the see-through TPE upper on the Zoom Fly SP to the record-setting technology in the Zoom Vaporfly 4%, the line represents the futuristic pinnacle of light-weight running footwear. Now, its ranks are gaining another member: the Zoom Fly Flyknit, a design that draws upon the already-established Zoom Fly aesthetic but adds a lightweight and flexible Flyknit upper.

The first men’s colorway to be unveiled — a “Gunsmoke Grey” — uses a classic black as the base for the one-piece Flyknit upper, while branding arrives via a giant grey lateral side Swoosh that starts at the bottom of the shoe’s throat and reaches all the way back to the heel. The medial side features a much smaller Swoosh towards the rear of the midfoot, and the well-known two-tone midsole returns as well, with the upper half adorned in black while the lower half features a crisp white. For a finishing touch, the flexible outsole is done up in a two-tone white and grey.
