Nike Free RN (Run) Flyknit has a natural fit and a dynamic flexibility. The Flyknit upper, fitting like a sock, ensures excellent comfort during the ride and high perspiration. The next-generation Nike Free midsole expands in multiple directions thanks to an entirely new tri-star pattern, adding a new dimension of flexibility that lets your feet move more dynamically with every stride. Plus, the heel is rounded to mimic the shape of your foot and roll naturally with the ground.
This model is part of the Natural Motion line of Nike, based on the natural movement of the foot, which ensures a smooth and comfortable ride.

Flywire
Flywire helps provide ultra-lightweight support and comfort for your foot. It gets its strength from thin nylon fibers strategically placed on the upper of the shoe to hold the foot in place, helping to reduce slippage during activity. This allows for a massive reduction in weight because material is used only where it’s needed.
Free
Nike Free are different from traditional athletic shoes. They’re designed to let your feet move much more freely and naturally, which means your muscles will be doing a bit more work than demanded of them in some other athletic shoes.
Flyknit
It uses a knitted upper construction process that increases support for a comfortable, custom fit. Seams, weight and friction areas are all reduced. Polyester yarn is more open in areas that need more flexibility and tighter in areas that require more support. Nike Flyknit also eliminates the need for multiple materials used to make traditional shoe uppers, significantly reducing pollution.
