Nike ZoomX VaporFly Next% 4 "International Running Pack" IH3586-999

The Nike ZoomX Vaporfly Next% 4 International Running Pack links the Swoosh’s modern racing technology with one of its most significant heritage moments. The shoe borrows inspiration from the USA palette of the classic Pre Montreal — a model tied to Steve Prefontaine — and reimagines it for today’s supershoe era. Nike blends this historic influence with a futuristic look, applying a faux-aged treatment to the ZoomX midsole and incorporating archival branding details such as the curved Swoosh. The colourway nods to the brand’s Olympic legacy while ensuring the Vaporfly 4 stands out as part of the International Pack.

While the design celebrates history, the performance features remain firmly anchored in the present. The Vaporfly Next% 4 uses dual ZoomX foam layers combined with a carbon-fibre Flyplate, giving runners the energy return and propulsion needed to tackle everything from the mile to the marathon. Lighter than its predecessor, the stripped-back upper employs breathable mesh for ventilation and weight reduction. The shoe moves seamlessly with the foot, helping runners maintain efficiency even deep into long-distance races.

What makes this edition special is the balance of storytelling and function. It acknowledges Prefontaine’s legacy and Nike’s roots in competitive running, yet delivers all the hallmarks of a modern race-day essential. Whether competing at elite level or chasing personal bests, the Vaporfly Next% 4 “International Running Pack” offers a combination of speed, heritage-inspired design, and lasting comfort. It’s proof of how Nike continues to honour its past while pushing performance footwear forward.
