Nike Free 5.0 V4 SKU #7525650(View on Zappos.com Classic)

As others have commented, the Nike Free runs narrow. This is a good thing for me since I have skinny feet; however, I have to wear thin socks with them. They are very comfortable.

Just got these and already can tell they are super comfortable with great support, especially in the heel. Very light shoe overall. One thing you can’t tell from the photos is that the laces are on an angle so looks a little funny, but perhaps designed to support the foot better. They also seem like they might be a bit less water resistant than leather sneakers, but compensating by being very breathable and light. Looking forward to wearing these and will likely order another pair at some point. They are keepers!

I had just read the book Born to Run which recommends a shoe change to avoid running injuries. The theory is that less is more. I have done at least 10 5+ mile runs in these and my legs and knee (6 surgeries) feel great. I have also worn them to Zumba class; they are perfect for that type of movement. Runs a little small with normal socks, I think they are meant to be worn barefoot. I bought both my usual size 5 and a 5.5 to wear with thicker socks.

This item was out of stock in my size and color when I first checked. I asked Zappos to notify me when they became available. It was the very next day! I ordered them immediately and received them very quickly. Great for everyday wear or my running routine. I am very satisfied with the Nike Free 5.0 V4 in pink and gray!

This is my 2nd pair. I put 300 miles on the first pair. They are great minimalist shoes, comfortable, lightweight. They run small by a half size. The all mesh upper keeps your feet nice and cool.

Really like these shoes for running. They are so lightweight. They did feel a little tight across the balls of my feet the first time I wore them, but it's not a problem anymore. Would definitely recommend.

Best Athletic Shoe Solution - Do not expect to immediately go out on a long run with this "barefoot shoe" if you're used to regular running shoes, but if you want to do your feet and legs a favor, this is worth the time to adjust. Without a lot of shoe in the way, the muscles of your foot work for you, allowing your arch to work as it was intended; but to run comfortably, you'll need to go back to a "natural" stride and not the longer, heel-strike (which has no shock absorption other than that provided from the shoe) encouraged by high-tech shoes, a stride that contributes to plantar fasciitis, shin splints and joint pain. For non-runners, also a great shoe for everyday workouts, especially balance training, because you can feel the ground but are still protected (it feels like the shoe and your foot are one). The fit is snug, but not uncomfortable. (I ordered a half-size larger than my street shoe, which was perfect.) I wear mine without socks, and I'm ordering a second pair so I can alternate use. This has been my answer to foot pain, and I'll never go back to a traditional athletic shoe. To better understand what you're getting in a barefoot shoe, check out the videos on YouTube or read Chris McDougall's book "Born to Run." You need to train your foot muscles (barefoot running in the grass, yoga or pilates) and start slow to get the full benefit, and you need to relearn running, but if you do, you'll leave running injuries and foot pain behind. This is just one brand of many (but I think it's the best looking).

This is my second pair of these. I wore through the last pair in about 8 months of daily use. I prefer them because they are so lightweight but still comfortable and slim. I am replacing these because the soles wore down on the last pair. I considered more expensive shoes, but these have a really nice 'rolling' motion as I'm walking. The only drawback with these shoes is the 'fingers' of the sole tend to pick up gravel, but this only became an issue once or twice. I am on my feet all day on tile floors and I enjoy the thought that these are working with my feet to make them stronger. I also wear these with dress socks at a half size larger than my regular shoe size.

I ordered these a half size larger than my usual size and they just fit. I am having a little problem with the shoe rubbing against my toe, so I think they are a little too narrow. I\'m surprised, as I have never had a problem when I order a 7 Medium. They are cute and comfy on the bottom and I wear tham when I walk outside (1 to 2 miles). I just have to make sure I wear a really thin sock. For running, I prefer a more solid running shoe.

Recently, I purchased a pair of the Nike Free 4.0 women\'s athletic shoe. She selected the hot red and gray colors. Definitely not colors that I would have picked but she’s got to wear them. Diane is an avid exerciser and her old pair was just giving out. She has gotten a lot of compliments on her choice of colors and she loves the fit and comfort of the she. I think that that we would both definitely recommend this shoe.
