Breathable. Supportive. Nike Flyknit technology uses high-strength fibers to create lightweight uppers with targeted areas of support, stretch and breathability.

2012 Nike introduced its Flyknit technology in 2012 and little did they know it would define an era of sneakers. Their goal was to create a material that is high-performing, comfortable, and eco-friendly. Their new technology, which debuted with the Flyknit Racer, would go on to achieve much more than its original goals.

Introduced in 2012, Flyknit was developed by Nike to create a high performance material unlike anything before and reduce waste at the same time.

Nike Free Flyknit The Flyknit upper provides a sock-like fit, while the Nike Free midsole expands for more dynamic movement. Each pair is designed with more cushioning than the Free RN Motion to help keep your feet comfortable and supported during every mile of your run.

Nike Flyknit is a lightweight fabric precision-engineered with an average of 60% less waste than in traditional footwear upper manufacturing.

It provides adequate cushioning for the marathon distance for any runner with a specific time goal in mind, and makes a great trainer for those mechanically gifted enough to run in less shoe most of the time.

The Flyknit shoes have a light, almost seamless upper, knitted with different structures for different areas in polyester yarn with varying elasticity, thickness and strength. Supportive cables are also woven into the fabric so the shoe fits snugly like a sock but gives support and ventilation in the appropriate areas.

Introduced in 2012, Nike™ Flyknit™ technology, also called 4D knitting is changing the way athletic shoes are made. A one-piece upper design is produced by a CNC knitting machine then assembled with the tongue, lining materials, and reinforcements.

The Flyknit shoes have a light, almost seamless upper, knitted with different structures for different areas in polyester yarn with varying elasticity, thickness and strength.

Flyknit Construction To construct the one-piece upper, the knitting machine is loaded with polyester, nylon, or spandex fibers. The newest knitting machines can handle a mix of fibers and up to 10 colors at one time.

Raw materials required for manufacturing Nike shoes are Organic cotton, leather, rubber, recycled polyester, and PVC. Other materials used to make these shoes are PVA foam, mesh fabric, and lightweight plastic.

Nike Flyknit: A lightweight fabric made from plastic bottles, precision-engineered with an average of 60% less waste than in traditional footwear upper manufacturing.

Flyknit is a type of fabric that is made from silk, cotton, which is lightweight and has a ability to dry quickly. In crocheted fibers, as fly asit fabric is made from other fibers, such as silk, polyester, spandex, and fleece. To make fly knit fabric, crocheted fibers come in various colors, designs, and styles.
