Extremely impressed with the Nike Streakfly 2, considering it the speed shoe for the road that Nike has needed for many years.

Critic consensus
from 5 reviewsThe Nike Streakfly 2 is an exceptionally lightweight, aggressive racing flat built like a track spike for short-distance races and fast interval sessions. Its propulsive carbon plate and minimal heel support make it demanding on the legs and unsuitable for heel strikers or everyday training. It suits efficient forefoot runners seeking maximum turnover for track workouts and races up to 5K.

A shoe earns a tag as soon as one reviewer recommends it for that kind of run; the count shows how many agree. Mentions include synonyms, so “recovery”, “zone 2” and “conversational” all count toward Easy.
