These are great sneakers,. I love the Nike Free sole. It is a bit thinner than normal, but it has great cushioning very comfortable very attractive. Definitely recommend a half a size up.

Great.

I was going to write like but I love these shoes for casual walk wear amazingly lite and comfortable
stevenj379516372 - May 26, 2025
LIke most other reviews these are great for walking and yes you can sometimes forget you have the shoes on as they are super lite weight and comfortable with decent arch support. Not sure I would select these to run a long race in as the toe box doesnt have reinforcement. Better choice for running would be Nike Down Shifters or Pegasus. Good traction kind look like barefoot shoe treads. Nike might want to slightly reduce the heel depth on the next gen I wear size 14 so when going down some stairs real heel can rub the riser.
Comfy but some design flaws
JacobF544449582 - May 31, 2025
Super comfortable but the shoelaces are INSANELY short. I can hardly double knot them. They are also quite narrow; the sides of my feet bulge out against the fabric so I expect them to tear somewhat quickly. Would recommend sizing up 0.5
