Here is a replica of the Victory Elite FK spikes that Faith Kipyegon is slated to wear during her sub-4 minute mile attempt later today in Paris. The model was showcased by Nike to members of the media in attendance. Some notes + observations via CITIUS MAG’s Keenan @keenanontrack: • Believed to be an improvement on Victory Elite 2, but not sure by how much • The upper weighs in under 90 grams (3.1 oz) or, as one Nike rep described it, “three paper clips.” • Bigger zoom air pod • Nodes on the side for aerodynamics • Upper is an improvement on Atomknit yarns • Spikes themselves are shorter but titanium/lighter and embedded in the shoe, so that there’s no secondary traction like regular spikes.
