$235 is the price in Canadian Dollars, thanks for the Canadian inclusion even if it wasn't on purpose ;) shoutout to Vancouver

I’ve only started wearing v2 other week. I like it but it was less than €100 so I’ll been swapping between invincible and more based on whichever is cheaper when I’m in the market again. Always love your honest unbiased opinion

[timetorunchannel]

My jaw literally dropped at 5:45 for the amount of heel slip you were getting. Nice to know the change up in lacing helped to correct it. That’s CRAZY though!

Good review as always. I recently bought the invincible 2 after watching your review on the them. One of the best shoe purchases i have ever made, thankyou 🙏🏻

[AntTN]

Nice review Ben. I've not seen any including yours that would convince me to run in the Invicible 3 over the NB More v4. Which is why I bought and am running in the latter (£98 from Go Outdoors in the UK). Its an excellent cusion shoe for sure and am loving it for easy days.

Just bought another pair of 2s yesterday, I love my current pair so decided to just get them as they're on sale. I'm very hesitant to get the 3s as my feet are quite narrow, and I'm afraid my heel will not stay put in these new ones. The 2s are quite wide on the heel for me as well, but they provide a good enough lockdown. Have to say more stability is definitely a welcome addition though.

[WadeZak]

I love that the back is covered now. My invincible ones went bad in 6 months with casual wear for comfort because the back end of the foam fell apart. I hope this eliminates that !!

[JonathanCardoz]

thanks for the review - Great video!

yep - the heel lock lacing system is now what I use for all my running shoes.

[markcobbold]

Great video and very helpful as a consumer.

I never had an issue with heel slippage, awesome pair of shoes ! 150 miles on them so far

[shobhagowda]

Hey I experienced the same back heel side slipping issue…., hope it gets sorted with that lacing….thanks for ur review… it was really nice 😊

My daughter talked me into my first pair of Nike in like 20 years. She loved the version 2. So far I like them a lot. I have worn Saucony for many years. I am out of my comfort zone. Thanks for the review.

[lovemrsfine]

Thank you I purchased these and I didn’t know about the lockdown they were slipping for me and now they’re not. They’re perfect for my EZ runs

[AJIV.]

I have the new 3's and they're very comfortable and have a nice bouncy cushion to them. Like Ben stated, the back part of the left shoe rubs my achilles the wrong way and causes a lil burn, but I've been wearing longer socks so it works out fine. But overall I really like them. I'll be using them in my upcoming marathon this sunday.

[davidrogers]

Got the white version turning up tomorrow.. enjoyed version 2 for my easy recovery runs. Got them for £140. 🤞🏻 I don’t have heal slippage.. great review as always

[dunda]

I am 51 years old and suffer from Achilles. Normally I run with Asics Cumulus. I am very happy that last Decmber I managed to do my first full marathon in Valencia 2hr 43 minutes. Now I bought Brooks Ghost 14 but I would like to try the invincible once as well.

The shoe is 190 in euro. Whether I use a runner's knot, depends on the shoe. I have this weird thing where I have heel slip on my left foot, in almost all of my shoes. Sometimes I will just use the runner's knot on the left shoe, but it's not always necessary.

Nike ZoomX Invincible Run Flyknit 2 - Weight: 317 gms/ 11.2 Oz for a half pair of Men's US 10/UK 9/EUR 44/CM 27.1. This one is heavy! im gona stick with the 2's couple more years to come 💪, nice review btw! 👏

[Bonkazzzz]

I clocked 150km on my 3's and I noticed that the heel slip diminishes greatly once the ZoomX moulds to your feet

[ianglendinning]

I only got V2 back at the start of October and have 120 miles in them so far. They seem fine for me up to about 10 miles and then they just feel dead beyond that.

One thing I did change at about 100 miles is to use grip socks when running in them and they have improved how the shoe feels when running. There's added stability and the shoe feels less wobbly, I'm very impressed at how a simple change of sock has transformed the feel.

I've picked up another 2 pairs cheap in the Nike outlets recently so will just keep these for now I think 👍
