Nike Alphafly 3 Obsidian FD8311-401

Deep Ocean. Northern Lights.

The Nike Alphafly 3 in Obsidian / Persian Violet is one of the most visually breathtaking colorways in the Alphafly lineup — a midnight navy upper that floats above a midsole gradient shifting from teal to lavender to soft lilac, with a volt Air pod glowing at the center like a bioluminescent pulse. This is racing gear that looks like art.

• Obsidian Atomknit 3.0 upper — Nike’s most advanced racing knit in a deep, rich navy blue with a subtle horizontal weave texture that catches the light and reveals depth at every angle. Featherlight, sock-like fit engineered for zero distraction at marathon pace
• Pearl White Swoosh — a bright white chrome-finish Swoosh that cuts across the dark navy upper with crisp, luminous contrast — the cleanest possible highlight against the darkest possible base
• "NIKE ROAD RACING AF 2025-03" certification badge on the lateral midsole with a Persian Violet Nike logo — an official race-day seal that confirms the engineering standard beneath every step
• Teal-to-Persian Violet gradient ZoomX foam midsole — a sweeping color transition from electric blue-green at the heel through ice white to soft lavender-violet at the forefoot — Nike’s most responsive foam rendered as a wearable aurora borealis
• Volt / Neon Yellow forefoot Air Zoom pod — a blinding fluorescent Air unit embedded in the teal midsole at the point of peak impact, delivering targeted explosive cushioning and a vivid neon contrast that completes the multi-color story
• Full-length carbon fiber plate in the ZoomX stack for elite propulsive energy return across every marathon kilometer

The Nike Alphafly 3 Obsidian / Persian Violet runs as fast as it looks. Which is very, very fast.
