Nike Free 4.0 Flyknit alternatives

Robert D

Hi everyone. For the last couple of years I've run in Nike free 4.0 flyknit - I love them because they have a wide toe box and are very flexible.

Nike have stopped making them and I'm looking for an alternative. I like a small drop (8mm max). I've tried Saucony Kinvara and Brooks but both are too tight in the toes. I have a recently purchased pair of Newtons which are great but I don't want to run in them all the time. Also I'm a size 13 / Euro 49 which restricts my choice. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Nike Free 5.0. Not sure if you will notice the extra 1mm.



Nike also do a Lunar Flyknit which is reasonably flexible.

Thanks. The 5.0 has a 10mm drop which is too high for me and the Flyknit is reviewed as fitting narrow in the toe. I'll order the Free RN Distance in size up and see how I go with that.

Hi Robert, how did you get on with the Free RN? I like my Free 4 Flyknits and wonder what to get next
