What Reviewers Say

Praised for exceptional comfort and lightweight feel, these shoes deliver a sock-like fit that many find ideal for short runs, gym workouts, and all-day wear. The breathable flyknit material keeps feet cool, though the open design isn't suited for wet conditions. Fit tends to run small and narrow—sizing up a half size is commonly recommended, especially for wider feet. The flexible sole offers minimal cushioning with good ground feel, making them popular for lifting and runs up to 5-6 miles. Small pebbles can get caught in the sole grooves, requiring occasional clearing.

These are the absolute best
This is the single greatest running shoe Nike has ever created and I am so disappointed they don’t make it anymore. Along with the other version of the 2018 free run, I have pretty much exclusively worn these two sneakers for the past 8 years and can now no longer find them any where online in my size. Please start making these again Nike 🙏 their look, sizing, material, and feel are absolutely perfect

I have been buying this same pair of shoes since 2018 and they are my primary go to shoe. And before then I wore all the earlier versions of the free runs. I’ve never had a more lightweight and breathable shoe. Good for general activity and especially good for sprints and short runs, the most I’d run in these is 5k.

Cool until they fall apart. Luckily they full of holes so when the lace holes rip you have other holes

These shoes have holes that go all the way through they are "See Through"! Be careful if your walking outside in these where its wet.

Best shoes from Nike!
By far some of my favorite shows I’ve owned.

Had a pair when they released in 2018 that was like green / black and wish they had this color still.

These are breathable and very comfortable to workout in!
