These are the most comfortable pair of Nikes I’ve ever put on my feet!

I love the sneakers! They are very, very comfortable and so cool looking!!

So close to being excellent. Part of my review is practical and part is personal preference - Practical: squeaks. The shoe squeaks. It’s one of my greatest pet peeves and worries and frustrations with “air” - it doesn’t always happen, but when it does, it’s horrible. I don’t like noisy or squeaky shoes of any kind - and air can be particularly bad. In these, only the right shoe squeaks. And it’s every step. A two-beat squeak. It’s awful. To me, it speaks to the fact that it doesn’t have to be that way (one shoe doesn’t do it) and therefore somewhere the quality was lower in the right shoe. Usually, with air, it takes a puncture or etc for stuff like that to happen / over time. This immediate squeak just made me sad. Personal preference: I don’t like a bulky shoe. I prefer slim and athletic - I think these are less bulky than I imagined (and I’m definitely not saying “heavy”) but they’re…thick. And naturally, the midsole and outsole combined are weightier than the upper. It’s difficult for this not to happen in making a shoe, but I don’t want to feel as if I’m lifting / dragging some weight off the ground as the upper holds on tight to it. I want the shoe to feel like one “whole.” I come at this from a soccer players perspective. The footwear should be connected as one. Disconnected is not a good feeling. Now, runners who run run run a lot may find it to work out well over long distances / many miles. I don’t imagine that being the case, but it may be. Air has the benefit of not ever really losing the bounce - as foam can compress eventually and then it’s done - but air adds weight and variables such as squeaks - and height which can lead to some roll/slightly less stability (not calling the shoe unstable) - And I personally don’t love that feeling. I digress - tho I’m ready to work in Nike design and testing whenever they’re ready to have me :!
