The first time I saw pictures of the Infinity Run 3, I thought I was looking at a new colourway of the Infinity Run 2 because they look almost exactly the same. Picture of Nike React Infinity Run Flyknit 3 The Infinity Run 3 now weighs 10.2 oz for a men’s US 9 which is 0.3 oz (8.5 g) heavier than the previous version.

The Infinity Run 3 is only an upper update but there are some small tweaks under the hood which change its ride character. Its ride lacked energy return and its React midsole felt firm in comparison to other, new generation midsole foams so I didn’t put a lot of mileage on the Infinity Run 2 after the testing period, apart from casual wear. Version 2 was a big improvement because its upper was a lot more comfortable and foot lockdown was excellent, however, the ride was exactly the same as the original version.Īfter running in exciting max-cushioned trainers like the Invincible Run and the Aurora-BL, the Infinity Run 2 felt really boring in comparison. I really enjoyed the ride of the original Infinity Run but its big weakness was its loose heel counter which resulted in heel slippage and the problem persisted no matter how tight I tied the laces. I’ve run in all versions of the Infinity Run. It’s a neutral trainer but it’s designed to cater for both neutral and overpronators due to its stability features, unlike Nike’s other max-cushioned neutral trainer, the Invincible Run which is a lot less stable. The Infinity Run is the spiritual successor of the Epic React which Nike axed after just 2 versions and the Infinity Run is now one of Nike’s premium, max-cushioned trainers. It has a smoother ride, a more comfortable upper and it’s a better looking casual shoe than the stalwart Peg.
I see more Infinity Runs these days than Pegasus’. The Infinity Run is an extremely popular shoe where I live. The midsole and outsole of the Infinity Run have not changed since 2020 when it was first launched and it’s rare for Nike to keep the same sole unit for 3 years they usually change it after 2 years. There can only be one reason for keeping the same sole unit for 3 years in a row: sales must be good.
