The Brooks equivalent carbon plated racer, the Hyperion Elite, was the one that was only supposed to last about 50-100 miles and was very harsh ride.

They're already moving onto V2 after just a couple of months, with changed midsole material, now should last 200-400 miles, due September, preview here

Next% are back in stock in all sizes on their site again

I've seen people on here mention asking Nike to replace/refund under warranty if their VF have fallen to bits before 100 miles - couldn't find the posts going back that mentioned it, can anyone tell me the best way to contact them about this?

FD - Page 160 - I phoned them up, they emailed a returns label, I posted them back with proof of purchase from sportshoes.com and within 2 weeks iirc they sent me an electronic credit note.

I’m so tempted to spend the money I’m no longer spending on commuting on a pair of vaporflys :)

Thanks SKR, will try that. Did you need to show evidence of miles done? The pair I am showing them are 6 months old, I can show them strava stuff if needed

@Fuzzy they'll usually confirm what pair exactly you're referring to (probably based on your last purchased item). i also sent pictures of the bottom
