"Fastest shoe I have worn, helped me break my pb for Sydney marathon. Super light and comfortable, look great on feet too! Would definitely recommend as a race day shoe for anyone looking to go fast."
"Fantastic shoe - super light and truly makes me run faster. It is not just advertising, it really works great, friendly advice - immediately had it in stock and were very supportive to my needs definitely will come back again"
"I find this shoe to be extremely comfortable and easy to run fast in. It has great bounce and really feels like it propels you forward. I upgraded from the alphafly 1 to this and it feels a more refined and more responsive shoe. For me it feels a bit more comfortable and bit faster then the Vaporfly (but I haven't tried the vaporfly 3)."
"I am not a runner but the shoes are very comfortable to walk on. Best purchase ever."
"Purchasing these race shoes from Pace was a dream! I went in knowing that I wanted to try at least 3 different shoes on the treadmill to see which suited my stride the best and was helped by the warmest and most accommodating staff member. I was given as long as I needed and even went back and forth between two pairs just to make sure I was making the right decision. I am so happy with my purchase and I can’t wait to race with my new Alphafly’s in the Gold Coast next weekend!"
"Oh wowsers!! This is my first pair of AlphaFlys and they do not disappoint. They are beautiful looking . . Glam one could say. . But also extremely cushioning!! I bought for a half marathon I have coming up and I’m sure the comfort I will get will push me through to the finish line."
"5k time was 40 seconds slower when i first used these shoes. Probably more to do with the user than the shoe."
"First pair of carbon plate runners ordered online, size wrong and went into the store in Waverley. Staff member that helped me was amazing, helped me find the correct size and fit for my feet. Used them in the Sydney half mara and the pace it allowed me to run at was fantastic, feet don’t hurt at all and on top of that, they look amazing on, the bright green colour is fantastic. Would 100% recommend"
"Not great for wider feet"
"Such an amazing colour way Came so fast! I did size due to longer runs - right decision"
