Nike's controversial Vaporfly shoes will not be banned. Instead, all prototype technology not currently on the market will be temporarily suspended, The Guardian reports

, World Athletics is expected to rule that all shoes currently on the market will still be legal.

The Guardian also reported that the organization will launch a deep dive into examining how much more advantageous Nike's Vaporfly shoes are compared to other shoes, at the elite level. World Athletics did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment. . It's unclear what the expected announcement will mean for the AlphaFly shoe, as it is a prototype that's currently unavailable to the general public. World Athletics' current rules say running shoes can't confer any "unfair assistance or advantage" and have to be "reasonably available" to everyone. But the organization doesn't define those standards more specifically.
