Nike Maxfly 2

The Maxfly 2 is the spike for sprinters chasing their fastest times. A full-length carbon fiber Flyplate and a forefoot Air Zoom unit turn every push into forward speed, from the blocks through the finish. It’s stiff and aggressive by design, so experienced sprinters get the most out of it. Save it for meets and fast sessions, and train in a more forgiving spike. Compared with the original Maxfly, the Maxfly 2 has a wider, flatter base under the plate, a raised inside edge for more stability on the curve, and a more secure upper. It’s slightly heavier than version 1. Sizing is unisex (a men’s 7 is a women’s 8.5), and Nike says it runs small, so go a half size up.
