This is pretty much the running shoe I’ve been looking for. The upper is nicely padded, soft and a bit stretchy, which makes it very comfortable. I have really wide feet with bunions and this pair accommodates them well. I often struggle even with 2E shoes and based on previous comments, I decided to go up half a size to make sure I have enough space. A few runs in, I think that this wouldn’t have been necessary and they would work well TTS. The midsole is the real star of the show tho. The shoe rolls nicely and keeps the joints fresh without feeling clunky. Never had better shock absorption in a running shoe before. And even as a heavier runner, I never felt the sole bottoming out. Absolutely nailed this part of the shoe. My only minor criticisms are that the toe box is quite tapered and pointy and I would prefer it to be more foot-shaped (which might help those people who feel that this pair is not wide enough) and that I would like a slightly more pronounced rocker upfront to make it flow a little more. Also, we need some more lively colorways for the wide foot fam. Other than that, I absolutely love all the protection under foot and the smooth ride.

Coming from the Pegasus 40’s, this was definitely an upgrade. The ball of your feet are extra cushioned (which being bulky, but running 3 miles every other day, helps a lot). The bottom of the toe is set up for the pole position, which gets your brain geared to move forward. My customer certifique is that this is definitely a wide and not a double-wide, which I knew from the previous comments, but that’s exactly what I needed. I wish the laces were a little longer, because I like to tuck them in during races. Other than that, Nike cooked with this design.
Good stable running shoe for wide feet

I like this running shoe a lot. Not the lightest, but very cushioned and forgiving. I typically get wide versions of running shoes and these fit very well for me. I tried the regular version and those were definitely too narrow for me. No heel slip either.
