The Dragonfly is the spike that won over distance runners before the Victory arrived, and it remains the go-to for longer track races. In our 1500m and long distance spikes guides we highlighted the ZoomX foam: light, highly responsive cushioning that keeps the legs fresher over 5000m and 10,000m.

A full-length Pebax plate gives a smooth, efficient transition, and the upper locks the foot in securely without pressure points. It’s suitable for any track event from 800m upwards, but it really shines from 1500m to 10,000m where comfort matters as much as snap.

The Dragonfly 2 updates the original while keeping the formula that made it so popular.

Who it’s for: distance runners who want comfort and speed for 1500m to 10,000m.
