It's essentially a track race. Distance running has both road and track records. So it could be recognized as a track marathon record, which probably has been run before by some idiots who felt like running 105 times around a track.

People saying certain shoes can't make you faster obviously haven't ran before. Take a look at track spikes, they allow you to run faster since they grip the track surface. Try running with heavier shoes for a long distance. I can tell you it's harder opposed to running with lighter shoes.

Whenever you get any new pair of shoe you think your faster than anyone.

Who's here after Kipchoge's sub 2-hour marathon?

He's trying so hard not to say they have ultraboost in the heel

Some people say 4% isn't that much, but when you're going up from 0% it's quite a jump.

I think these shoes are also based on an illusion effect. When runners think the shoe can make them run faster they actually run faster without the shoe having an actual effect.

He misses it by 23 secounds

I wear thirty pairs, and double my speed.

Look at how many people are saying this is an ad. I mean, the name Nike just really stands up for itself when they do things like these. It's like saying Porsche is advertising their LMP's.

To all the idiots saying shoes are irrelevent and blablabla. Just go to a running store. Just try on a pair of expensive (higher quality) shoes and you'll see the difference right away. But dont buy em obviously

Who is here AFTER THE 2 HOUR MARATHON RECORD WAS BROKEN

Who needs running shoes when u can run with slippers

If the whole marathon were in a hallway they would be able to do it in under 1h 30min

Yes, it would be like those swim suit records in the Olympics, but I don't know how these shoes could possibly help. I would think striking the surface as solidly as possible would be the most efficient way to run, so in the past most runners have used a minimal racing flat that just protects their feet from abrasion.

well, running 4% faster wouldn't make that big a differnce, would it? they still need to run at least 21,09 km/h and they can do that already, the problem isn't the speed, the problem is to keep that speed for 2 hours, so 4% more speed wouldn't make it any easier, they would still have to run at least 21,09 km/h for 2 hours

4% more efficient means a 4% energy saving which can help you sustain speed for long times

Nothing will make you faster than a cop behind you or a taco in front while crossing the boarder.

''You won't see these in a store''... Except next year when they retail for 350 euros as a limited edition.

If shoes that allow you to go 4% faster are legal might as well allow rocket skates

It is 4% faster compared to what? compared to other shoes, if that is the case, which shoes? or compared to barefoot?

It was so damn close. I was at the event. They were like 30 seconds off the sub 2 hr marathon

Those two athletes that got signed probally already runs a sub marathon under 2 hours

These could actually prevent a 2 hour marathon. Anything which alters the biomechanics of the foot or dissipates energy will be detrimental. The foot is a complicated spring. You just need thin soled light shoes which protect you from the road.

There's capitalism, which I'm all for, then there's people like you. Do you honestly believe that the people that work in the factories are only worth the few dollars that they are paid a day? Nike's marketing budget is $804 million annually, following them increasing the budget by 10% last year. If, rather than increasing the budget for marketing, they had invested the $70 million (ish) into their workers in their factories, it could have a huge proportional effect on their wages. They didn't seem to be struggling on the previous budget, did they? Also if you had any awareness, you may have realised that productivity increases with increases in wages. If you don't believe me, Google "efficiency wage argument," so the effects these wage increases have on prices may have been even smaller than you make them out to be. All I'm saying is that if rather than greedy western multinationals investing all their money back into making commercial after commercial, they spent a little bit on their workers who are right on the breadline, it wouldn't have the effect of basic shoes costing $200 dollars which I'm guessing you just made up as it sounded like a nice big round number. I bet you voted for Trump.
