Nike Air Max Joga Bonito R9

The Nike Air Max Joga Bonito is a great-looking shoe with a unique design that stands out without being too flashy. The materials feel high quality, and they're comfortable enough for everyday wear once you find the right fit. My only recommendation is to size up. They run noticeably small, so I would suggest going up at least a half size, and possibly a full size if you have wider feet or prefer a little extra room. Once you get the sizing right, they're an excellent pair of sneakers that look even better in person than they do in the photos.

Unfortunately, this shoe is not my cup of tea. As a casual soccer player, I find that the heavy weight makes it not worth the trouble of putting on. Even if you were to use it just for running errands or going out in the evening, the weight alone might make you think twice. It can really catch up with you, especially if you are exploring a city on vacation. Because of this, I do not recommend picking up this shoe for activities that require a lot of movement. However, if you are someone who likes bulky shoes, this will be right up your alley. The inside of the shoe is hands-down the best cushioned, and Nike did a great job meshing the materials. Design-wise, it looks great and the unique pattern is one of a kind. Personally, I am a sucker for the hints of red in the colorway I obtained. If you are going on a dinner date or doing anything that does not involve too much walking, this is a great choice because it is very easy to style an outfit around. No matter the color, the Nike Air Max Joga Bonitos make it simple to create a good look.

Right off the bat, what stood out for me was the weight of the shoes. Yes, they are a bit on the heavy side, but that is to be expected by the air max line of shoes. But make no mistake they have a nice cushion insole that provides comfort while working out and walking. These are excellent pair of shoes when weight lifting had they provide a sturdy base. The quality and material are top notch. I have used these shoes for about a month and they still look brand new. I can tell that these shoes will last quite a long time before needing replacement. You also can’t go wrong with the gray and red contour, such a classic color combination. Overall, a worthy investment for anyone interested in their first Air Max purchase.
