This product is very impressive. I love that the air pockets support your arch and foot. Overall it's a very well-rounded shoe - it's great for running and training, and it lasts long. But the only flaw In my opinion is that the heel cup gets a lot of scratch marks. Maybe it's the salt on the sidewalk; who knows? But it's a great shoe. I would personally recommend it to any runners of trainers.

bought these shoes for my fiance and he just loves them. It has technology, which you need to buy. I thought it came with the shoe and almost returned them. Otherwise, great look and feel. They are comfortable according to my man!

Especially like the gray sole instead of black. The soles don't leave marks on the floor. Very comfortable. Would definitely order again.

Excellent service. Just as promised. Will use Zappos again. This was my first order. Street shoe size is 10 1/2. Ordered size 11. Toes come to the end, even with thin socks. Could have used 11 1/2 but these will work due to the fact I only walk in them. If I had been using them to run, I would have had to return them for 11 1/2, but my running days are over. They are excellent shoes with superior cushion. I would purchase another pair. Thanks Kathy for your help on the phone.

First time I have ordered shoes online, however, with the reviews on the shoe I decided to purchase the shoe. The delivery was fast, I ordered the shoe on a Friday and received it on Monday, how quick is that! I will be ordering from Zappos; can't beat the price.

Didn't know if I would like the shoe 'til I got them. These shoes are great. I'm glad I went with this shoe. Great service - was here in one day.

Ordered this shoe this past Saturday and received it yesterday! Shoes were exactly as shown. Very nice solid black and well made. Not a thing wrong with them anywhere. I have worn D-med. width Nike Shox that fit perfectly as my feet are a little wide. These were too narrow. They do stretch out on the sides. It is not painful but holds tighter than I would like. All-in-all I am returning them and I think I am going to go for Shox. Ordering offline is tricky too because of the fact you don't know exactly how they will fit. Also, arch support was moderate. I have felt a lot better with Shox. I do believe this shoe would be a tough durable shoe.

Truly like walking on air; I have foot problems, but not in these wonderfully designed and made shoes. Perfect for running, training, walking or just loafing about.

Good quality shoe. The style is awsome I have had numerous comments about the shoe. I wear these shoes five days a week for about eight hours a day and I have to say my body does feel pretty good for being on my feet for that amount of time.

I'm have a normal foot width, D's usually always fit comfortably, but these sneakers felt very snug in the toe area and one of the sneakers was very uncomfortable at the arch. The fit just felt awkward and I really wanted to like these sneakers because the style is nice. Had to return them.

Before these, I never wore running shoes, it's always been either skate shoes or tennis ones. I'm very glad I got them, they're very comfortable and a pleasure to walk in, not to mention style and those extra few centimeters they add to my height!

I purchased these shoes to train and run a half marathon. They are very nice shoes, but did not fit my feet correctly. In fact, at one point during the half marathon my feet fell completely asleep. The shoes themselves are very nice - just make sure they are a proper fit for your running style before purchasing!

I purchased this shoe for casual use, not running. It's very comfortable, but the first thing I noticed that this shoe runs a half-size larger than all the other Nike running shoes I've owned. I have two pairs of older Tailwind's and they are both perfect 9.5's on me. My Air Max 95's were 9.5's. I will have to return mine and get 9's. This shoe is definitely for the mild under-pronator such as myself. If you're an over-pronator, you'll probably find this shoe makes your feet roll inward too much. Other than that, it's a very comfortable and good looking shoe.
