Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

No not from Nike. Just googling and ending up on a few different forums (including LetsRun) but take any info on places like that with a pinch of salt.

One of the initials guys (SKR?) rips his apart in about half a mile but I’ve done quite a few races in mine including 2 marathons and I think they are getting a bit soft now.

My zoomfly are showing clear signs of wear after 380 miles (vaporfly only have 14 miles on the clock). I’m a bit surprised as I don’t go through shoes that quickly. A pair of Altras with similar mileage have almost full tread on them.

Wear shows in different ways though, you can see where the upper shoe tred is gone but the Nike has broken down but still, if you are unhappy at 380 miles by this wear, good luck to you :)

JDA yup its me, they don't tend to last longer than 150 miles for me. That soles on the left foot always tend to disintegrate at the same spot.

Can't seem to be able to run in anything other than Nike's these days. I've been trying a pair of Boston 8s and I think they are horrendous
