These never hit retail in this exact prototype form – far more exclusive than standard Air Zoom Type releases (like the DB5459-001 3M Pack). Worn for testing (honest marks/scuffs as shown), but structurally sound with loads of life left. Perfect for serious Nike collectors, prototype hunters or fans of experimental runners like the Alphafly-inspired Zoom Type line.
