I am planning to get the Streakfly to replace the Streak 6. From what I am seeing, the outsole seems to be lacking in terms of durability. I also heard that the Streakfly is much closer if compared to the Pegasus Turbo as compared to Streak 6/7s. I'm considering this against the Streaktumbo for workouts on the track.

Streakfly owners out there! Could you share your experiences on the Streakfly when used during workouts such as tempo runs and intervals etc.? Maybe also some of the shoes that you prefer for such workouts too.

My favorite shoe all time! I’ve done a lot of tempos in it, which always feels really good to me, and I can easily pick up the pace. I’ve also done intervals in them which the shoes definitely contributed to going faster

I’ve heard the streak fly is a bit soft. Would be interested to hear what people who have tried this shoe think. I have the adidas Takumi Sen 8 and it is fantastic. Definitely not soft. The shoe has great pop.

I use the Streakflys when I am doing anything at 5k pace or faster on the track. Great shoe. Still race on the roads in the Vaporfly. Never taken the Streakfly off track actually.

Other shoes I wear in workouts (mostly threshold work) are the Zoom Fly and the Puma Velocity Nitro.

This shoes is definitely soft. Among the softest, I had. I love this shoe, it has very good bounce. No idea how long the outsole is lasting but as long as the midsole feels good this should be no problem. I think about 300 - 400 miles should be possible.

I have worn it for a normal 5k tempo and didn't like it (too aggressive) but then wore it for a sub-maximal road 5k (around 10k pace with a fast final 200) and liked it a lot. I'd prefer the Vaporfly if I were going for a PR, but I was able to shift gears far better at the end due to the lack of a carbon plate.

The outsole on mine started peeling off after like 2 weeks, a problem I used to have with the LT's too.

Great shoe. Softer, but faster than one of my all-time favorites, the Nike Lunaracer versions 1-3. I use mine on an unpaved, converted rail to trail, and they work for me even at slow easy/recovery paces. One other thing: I've rotated between two pairs since April, and they're holding up just fine.

The streakfly is much closer to other supershoes like the vaporfly in terms of how it feels to run in. The streak 6 and 7 were traditional flats with a bit high stack and they have more of a racing flat feel with support and cushioning. The streakfly feels like a closer to the ground (but much less so than streak 6 and 7) super shoe. Streakfly has a much bouncier feel.
