Zoom Alpha
  6.23 / 10
The Nike Zoom Alpha is inspired by the Lexus LF-A. Like the car, the shoe tries to be simplistic, fast, and aggressive. The heel of the shoe takes its cues from the vents on the rear of the car. The wrapping outsole and midsole were inspired by the wheels. While the lines on the shoe try to mimic the curves on the Lexus. The upper is a combination of leather and a Lycra shroud that uses a zipper enclosure. The heel has a little cutout for flexibility and ventilation. The Phylon midsole houses heel and forefoot Zoom Air units. The outsole wraps up at the heel and forefoot for stability, and also has slits for added flexibility. Alternative colorway.
