Nike Zoom Javelin Elite 3 Throwing Spikes
Low to the ground with a locked-in feel, the Nike Zoom Javelin Elite 3 is ready to compete, thanks to a new design that's built for complete stability and power transfer.
Synthetic Upper
The upper of the Zoom Javelin Elite 3 has been constructed using a synthetic material to provide equal measures of comfort, resilience and durability to help improve and optimise performance. Mesh panels are located on the side of the shoe to increase airflow and improve circulation to create a drier, healthier environment for your feet to thrive. Additionally, excess sweat and moisture are quickly eradicated to keep your feet cool and composed. The shoe is made to last, with durable upper materials and resilient straps featuring hardware that's been rebuilt for toughness. The entire upper construction is designed to be secure but adaptable. An adjustable forefoot strap enables you to find the optimum fit, meeting individual requirements, which can be adjusted thanks to the hook-and-loop closure. A second Velcro strap locks you in and helps prevent your foot from sliding. Further comfort and durability are provided by a TPU toe cap, protecting the feet from abrasion and guarding against toe drag, friction and any unwanted debris causing damage. The toe cap on the drag helps stop runway momentum before take-off, meaning you are fully in control when releasing the javelin. This helps to deliver a more solid base when throwing, ensuring you are well-balanced and enabling increased performance in the process. It is also lined with dampening foam for comfort.
High Density Foam Midsole
High-density foam helps to dampen impact without absorbing too much of your energy. This will protect your feet enough when striking back down onto the ground, whilst still propelling the energy back into your stride. The midsole is designed with a slight negative offset that puts the heel lower than the forefoot, giving you an optimal angle at foot plant. A reduced height keeps you closer to the ground for greater ground feel and confidence.
Pebax Outsole
A full-length Pebax spike plate is situated on the outsole and contains 11 steel spike receptacles to offer exceptional grip and traction. Having a large number of spikes will help to give you the assured footing required to maintain balance and control when throwing the javelin. The minimal flex plate helps create ground contact without feeling flimsy and whilst retaining a springy feel.
