FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for beginners?

While anyone can wear them, they are technologically designed for experienced runners focusing on performance and speed.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

It is not recommended. The Alphafly is optimized for forward motion and lacks the lateral support needed for weightlifting or cross-training.

How long will the foam last?

Performance foam typically lasts between 200 and 400 miles depending on your running style and surface conditions.

Do I need to break these in?

While they are comfortable out of the box, it is advised to use them for a few short runs to get used to the unique feel of the propulsion plate.

How should I clean the shoes?

Use a soft brush to remove surface debris and a damp cloth to clean the foam midsole. Avoid submerging the shoe in water.

Troubleshooting

Feeling instability on uneven surfaces

The shoe is designed for flat, paved roads. Stick to asphalt or track surfaces for optimal performance.

Upper feels too tight or constrictive

Ensure the laces are adjusted properly, as the engineered upper is designed for a snug, lockdown fit rather than a loose fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional energy return for faster paces
  • High level of cushioning for joint protection
  • Lightweight materials reduce overall fatigue
  • Sleek and modern aesthetic with vibrant colorways

Cons

  • Specialized build may feel unstable for casual walkers
  • Higher price point compared to standard trainers
  • Requires an adjustment period to get used to the propulsion feel

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Alphafly trainers last, avoid using them for non-running activities that involve scraping or dragging the sole. Compatibility with your foot shape is vital; ensure you have selected the correct UK size, such as the 4.5 size mentioned here, to prevent blistering. For care, keep them away from harsh detergents. If they get muddy or dusty, wipe the outsole with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry in a cool, shaded area. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as heat can degrade the integrity of the foam and adhesives.
