There has been growing speculation about Nike footwear over the past year, with the former Nike Oregon Project member Steve Magness and the sports scientist Ross Tucker questioning whether  springs were used in the shoes worn Nike Air Presto Womens by the Ethiopian Kenenisa Bekele at the Nike Air Max 90 Mujer Blancas Dubai marathon last month.Those rumours have also been fuelled by a prototype for a Nike shoe that was filed at the US patent office on 4 May 2016, which talks about “an article of footwear may include an upper, an outsole and a spring plate”.A Nike spokesman insists Bekele was wearing a legal shoe, which the Guardian understands has also been tested in training by Mo Farah. “Bekele was testing a prototype racing flat that we’ve been working on for nearly two years,” the spokesman said. “It adheres to IAAF requirements. Athletes including Galen Rupp, Eliud Kipchoge, Amy Hastings and Shalane Flanagan also tested and competed in the shoe.”Nike has also revealed its ambitious project to break the two-hour mark for the marathon will take place later this spring at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza Adidas ZX 750 Dames complex in northern Italy, on a 2.4km Adidas ZX 750 Mens course. The course has been selected because the average temperature is expected to be around 12C with very little wind, which is ideal for racing.Three Nike athletes have been training for the attempt, including the double London marathon winner and Olympic champion Kipchoge. However most experts believe the attempt to go under two hours for the marathon is more promoting Nike’s new range of shoes than a serious attempt on a record that few believe can be broken under IAAF rules.A Nike spokesman added: “The course will be IAAF ratified and will meet to all marathon course requirements, including independently measured course distance, start versus finish location and course elevation. However, the actual attempt will not be an officially sanctioned world record. We believe it will show the Adidas Gazelle Dames potential to break it and enable future Nike Air Max Command Hombre official times to fall.”Big 5 Sporting Adidas Superstar Mujer Goods Corporation is a sporting goods retailer in the western United States.
