Split Personality - Invincible Run 3

This is the Nike Invincible Run 3. And it’s a very confusing shoe. For some people, it is an easy day max cushion shoe. For others, it is a long run workout shoe. But I don’t think a lot of people can like it for both.
Also, I don't know what the upper is made of, but it's not flyknit.

Amazing runners. The Full Max comfort is no joke, especially for big guys like me. I understand what people mean with the heel slippage, but after tying the knot all the way through, I never had that issue. Wearing these shoes make me look forward to my runs.

Fellow big runners - you need this. Great daily trainer for different paces with great squish and bounce. The earlier version was plenty wide too - hopefully this is too. Novablast for me (200 lbs) is a 5k shoe. Thanks Kofuzi.

[@FreshBrewRunClub]

Great review; your explanation of the first mile is spot on. Nike essentially made the same shoe for the V1 and V2, so I'm not surprised that this one went in a little bit of a different direction. It's not a bad shoe, but it's enough to make me look elsewhere for a max-cushioned shoe this summer.

[@kofuzi]

[@kofuzi]

[@chrisvarelabenitez4690]

I ran in the previous two models and I love the new update. First & foremost, “ankle/heel slippage” is nonexistent (for me at least) I used all the lace loops. Second, it’s much more stable & has a better lockdown. I’ve thrown this shoe on for easy/recovery runs. ZoomX foam doesn’t disappoint, by the end of the run your legs naturally pick up the pace resulting in “fresh legs” I had no problem running low 7 minute miles in the shoe.

[@davididing3678]

very interesting review, thank you!

[@jefferrrson1x]

Exceptional review sir. Really want those Novablast asics.

[@ebscoHOSTpub]

I have to break my "no running gear for 2023" goal bc I forgot the v3 More heats up really quick and I live in a high desert and it wont work for me here. So I was eyeing this shoe for the summer heat and I usually follow your reviews for guidance and its worked well for me (Novablast 1 never worked for me). Looking forward to the 100+ mile review.

[@brandonb.5304]

I nearly returned the previous version because the sides of the shoe caused me pain because of their narrowness (near my arches, the forefoot area of the shoe is actually pretty wide), but I eventually broke it in and now it's my favorite easy day training shoe. The max cushion give my feet and joints needed breaks between harder training days and upper is very comfortable.

[@kofuzi]

thanks for the feedback!

[@alphaperez]

I returned my Nike Invincible 3 and replaced them with a pair of ASICS Gel Nimbus 25s. I didn't experience any heel lift with my Invincible 3s as many others have said, but I just didn't enjoy the upper; the material is so rough and shiny. For my spring HM training block I'm using the Nimbus 25s as a max cushion easy/long run shoe, and Endorphin Speed 3s for tempo training. The Nimbus is MAX comfort for me, with an insane upper and also midsole.

[@kofuzi]

I think we're on the same wavelength here

[@ThePowelldan]

I just got my pair of invincible run 3 and took them for an 11mi run… I ended up liking them for faster paces rather than easy run - just like you did. I also had the experience of the pressure in the arch, both feet, but after mi. #4 it was much easier, it felt like if the outsole needed to be “warmed” or “broken” to start flexing; after that it felt pretty good. Great review, always appreciate your insight!

[@kofuzi]

thanks for the feedback and for sharing your experience

[@melbexdeleon8951]

I just ran in mine today and I definitely agree with your assessment. I am having a bit of a trouble taking it super easy as the shoe kind of wants me to go a bit faster. Nonetheless, I think I like it and I’ll use it with my novablast 3

[@veerayuthkh]

Finally i waiting this. it’s a great review. 🎉

[@kofuzi]

thanks for watching!

[@alexkhan2000]

Got this last week and have put in 25 miles so far. I have mixed thoughts about this version compared to the v2. It does look sleeker and better overall, but the ride isn't as fun and bouncy as v2 although it is more stable. The thing is, I didn't find stability to be an issue on v2. There is plenty of cushion to protect from impact but, to me, it feels clunkier than v2. The upper isn't as comfortable but I think I can solve that with thinner socks. The heel slippage is there but I was able to take care of it with the runner's knot. Still, it's been bit of a chore to get a good balance between secure lockdown and comfort on upper mid-foot due to having to lace up too tight. Once I got that dialed in, it's a good ride for easy runs for up to around 10 miles. It's a little too heavy for me to want to go beyond that distance with this shoe but the same goes for More v4 and SC Trainer, my other easy/recovery/slow shoes. Somewhat of a downer as I had such high expectations for this v3. v2 is one of my favorite shoes (and I have two pairs) and I had really hoped that v3 will address the minor little things on it, but I think the added weight, heel slippage (which can be fixed) and the firmer ride are disappointing. It can pick up the pace as I've done 7'00"/mile stretches without a problem, and I think it can be used as a daily trainer but there are many better choices for that. It's a little too heavy for both fast or long. It's a good shoe and I'll keep using it but, to me, it doesn't have the "magic" of v2 (and I assume v1 which I haven't tried). I may very well grow to like it more with more miles. I don't think I can come to a conclusion after only 25 miles. I've come to like some shoes after 50 miles that I didn't like initially (like the Boston 11). I'm still holding out hope that this shoe will grow on me.

[@bsmoov7]

You were reading my mind. I just picked up a pair of the Novablast with the intention of pairing it with the Invincible. And was considering doing and Invincible/Superblast pairing too

[@kofuzi]

we're on the same wavelength

[@korufantasy6892]

I had a love-hate relationship with this shoe. I attempted to return it after 10km due to heel slippage and rigid outer but Asia’s return policy is not that great. But I trained with it and broke multiple PBs with my knees intact. I’m gonna use it for my next half-marathon with hopes that ZoomX carry me through the fatigue!

[@kofuzi]

interesting developments

[@runcultiv8]

Totally agree with you in this sentiment. Heel slippage, rigid upper, poor Asia return policy haha. I'm at 50 miles and things have slowly gotten better, but not in love with this shoe sadly.

[@zaf2643]

I live in southeast asia. I have no issue returning my nike vaporfly shoe to nike back .

[@danieltay1052]

South East Asia is nothing but a sweat shop for shoes maker... not only that, they treat you as an idiot for asking you to pay much higher price than elsewhere in the world... so, where is the logic? The shoes is either made in Vietnam or Indonesia, yet it is cheaper in Europe, USA and Taiwan than in sea

[@eby61mss]

Nike malaysia here has been super easy to return and get a refund under the 2 year warranty, hassle free no questions asked. I’ve returned my detached midsole of my streakfly that was bought within a year and my pegasus turbo next which i just find it not very suitable for me, so I returned it.

[@martinbergmann7478]

Thank you for that review . And thank you for saying that the shoe wants u to run in a certain way. I thought im strange built since I have the exact same problem … it wants to change my foot strike and this results in problems with my ankles every-time when I start “fighting “ it . I never had such thing with any shoe . And version 1-2 are not at all like that …yesterday I ran a 10 k easy with the v3 and today 10 k with my Streakfly and omg the Streakfly is so much more comfortable and fun ……. Feels almost more cushioned 😂😮‍💨. I guess I will try marathon pace tomorrow . Lets see ;) Cheers

[@JasonCaville]

Great review, thanks!

[@kalvin.]

Nike has so many good pieces and elements, but very rarely puts enough of them into one package. ZoomX is an awesome foam, flyknit or atom knit makes for a great upper, and Nike’s design team is always on point. But it’s like they always have to hamstring the shoe either because it was designed by too big of a committee, or almost on purpose to allow for “improvements” YoY. Their racing shoes have been so good because they feel like true no-compromise products, while their training shoes seem to be only halfway into enthusiast preferences and novice/casual use and thus aren’t really good for either.

[@danielmoore9214]

Already clocked over 500 miles on my Invincible 2, now waiting for a price drop on the leaner looking Invincible 3. Probably the most advanced foam around in my view.

[@jjeniece]

The version 2 is a great daily trainer for me, especially at Nike outlet prices. I’m a bigger runner, and it’s much more supportive than the Pegasus. I’ll wait until the hit the outlet.

[@franco05]

That is sooo true, this shoe wants you to up the speed, its not a slow shoe, but it is fun.

[@modifiedprogramjam4830]

Ur the man, bro!

[@runstreetwise]

I may be in the minority, but I hated the last iteration of these. They never felt comfortable for me and always hurt my feet and trashed my legs. I gave up on them after 50ish miles and gave them away to someone who absolutely loved them.

[@kofuzi]

It’s a polarizing shoe

[@markjparaan]

I wanted to love these. I put in so much mileage on v1 and v2, that I was excited when they announced a new model. Unfortunately it hurt my feet so bad. Ended up going with Novablast 3 and haven’t regretted it ever since.

[@TheTacticalButterknife]

Just did my first run in the Invincible 3 and I feel exactly like this, it wanted me to go faster than my easy pace and it needs to bed in but I'm keeping them for longer workouts.

[@hotsauce315able]

Great review as always! Can you compare it against the Asics Gel-Nimbus 25 and if so, if you had to pick which one would it be for max cushion easy day shoe? Thanks

[@kofuzi]

if we continue with this split personality metaphor, I think the Nimbus 25 and Invincible 3 are comparable if you like the Invincible 3 for easy running. But the Nimbus 25 is a much better suited recovery day and easy long run shoe, whereas the Invincible seem to prefer to go at the faster end of easy and is not so luxuriously cushioned as the Nimbus

[@HowIsThat69]

Both v1 and v2 likes it when you put some work in Them. Same kinda pop/ Propulsion in those as well

[@RUmlas]

Previously working at local running shoe store for 7 years before the pandemic hit, I can say Nike probably migrated away from the fly knit uppers because they saw quite a significant feedback of the "loose" fit and significant amount of rma's of people being too rough or improper fit on warrantied fly knit shoes.

[@kofuzi]

interesting. so then why not just call it a different named upper material, I wonder.

[@BrandViolation]

Found my previous Invincible pair at a local Nike outlet for $80. Perfect price imo.

[@kerry_runs]

A steal at that price point

[@montellanojavelosa6249]

just bought the invisible run 3s on Sale on nike for $100. tried it on, not sure how to feel about the stability as an underpronator, but it's so soft and squishy and your awesome review may have just convinced me to keep this thing with hopes that i am able to break it in. I love your pairing options as I also just ordered the novablast 3, waiting for it to arrive, has great reviews so I'm curios how that shoe would feel.

[@brainkale]

I wish it was lighter, if the Triumph 20 can gain stack height and lose weight compared to its previous iterations there's no reason why the Invincible couldn't.

[@Trwoodward]

I’ve seen others suggest the difference in feel to v1 & v2 is that they’ve added a stiffer board under the insole, presumably for stability.

Great review! - Having done a couple of longer runs in these I am enjoying them. I don't try and break any records, just a steady pace. I will say though, the cornering ability is really poor (I suppose as expected due to the height of the foam). So try and do routes that are straight lol. Also, I am someone who suffers with some pronation. Again, due to the height of the foam, if the surface wasn't flat, I would pronate really badly. Just worth bearing in mind anyone!

I always see "big runner" and I'm wondering if I'm considered one. I'm 5'7 and 170 pounds. I have a fairly lean build but I have a wide frame with thick legs lol...

[@kofuzi]

I let people self identify. some people just hit the ground hard. it doesn't have to be a weight or a height thing

I hope Nike did a better job on Vomero 17 revamp.

[@okde1875]

I've been waiting for kofuzi to do this review for a while nike invincible and reacts are my favorite nike shoes even though v1 and v2 look like grandpa shoes I love how they feel on my feet the v3 looks better but the forefoot looks thinner nike fixed some stuff on the v3 but why do they made it heavier and thinner forefoot we need the pegasus outsole on the invincibles and thicker forefoot Come on nike u can do better next version we want comfort on the Infinity reacts aswell better grip without sacrificing comfort and make them lighter too is it too much to ask?

Are you primed to crush Tokyo man? Can’t wait to see you in another race

[@kofuzi]

feeling good

[@hardyhector]

I felt like these were heavy af for running . I feel like I’ll sound like a T. rex stomping

[@souravsen2005]

I think I'm done with Max cushion shoes.. but I am saving up for the prime X strung.. that's probably going to be my only running shoe in 2023.. or maybe I'll pick up a novablast 3 if I find them at a good discount.. I have the IR 2 and this doesn't seem like a huge step up.

[@Eirikkinserdal]

They are discounted all the time. The superblast on the other hand...

[@gengar678]

Prime X is my favourite training shoe, and I have more than 10 different shoes to choose from. Have 550km on this pai and its still great, didnt loose any bounce at all
