Eliud Kipchoge's size 10.5 Alphaflys have been reported to measure 45mm, but is legal because the size 42 (8.5) is 39.5mm.

World Athletics has a 40mm limit for size men's 8.5 and allows higher than 40mm for larger sizes scaled to size. Most men wear larger than 8.5 (I think 10.5 is the average American men's size). Not sure what size Derek measured, but most men wear a lot larger than size 8.5.<br /><br />Funny story. There was a belief by many when that rule was set that WA, possibly/likely? under Nike influence, set made 8.5 the size to measure to get the Alphafly to be legal. Otherwise 8.5 is a weird size too choose as a standard, since the industry standard is usually mens 9 when giving specs. The Alphafly just sneaked under 40mm (39.5mm) at size 8.5, but is over 40mm size 9 and above.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-69488450748988270992022-09-06T09:56:09.386-06:002022-09-06T09:56:09.386-06:00At 41.5mm of heel stack, doesn't that make thi...At 41.5mm of heel stack, doesn't that make this illegal for World Athletics?
