Nike Alphafly 3 v Nike Zoom Fly 6: Comparison Testing

In this video I compare the Nike Alphafly 3 to the Nike Zoom Fly 6.

First I go through some comparisons of the shoes specifications and running feel. Then I take them to the track and treadmill to do some comparative tests. Finally I recommend if you should buy either shoe.

Spoiler alert: Both shoes are great, with surprisingly little to separate them
