I purchased these throwing shoes about 3 months ago as I needed a new pair. I have always been a Nike customer and was soon very disappointed. I am a college level thrower and soon found that my shoes started to tear on the bottoms, and chunks of rubber were coming off my shoes while training. I am very sad as I have loved Nike shoes as a thrower but I can not afford to buy new ones every 3 months due to the bad quality and would not suggest these to other throwers.

Very poor quality - avoid these

I have to start by saying that we are usually a fan of Nike products but this seasons throwing shoes are truly appalling! My daughter uses these for discus and literally after 1 session the soles were shredding. I have attached a photo which is after she used them 3x. I am returning them for a refund. Nike seriously need to sort this out and improve on these soles next season.
