Customer Reviews Nike Air Monarch IV

Good looking shoe. Cleans up nicely. Comfortable but heavier than anticipated. Used to more of a running shoe style/weight. Love the fact it doesn't have that crappy plastic look Nike has been putting on their shoes the past few years. All leather or canvas.

I bought the shoes for work. Be careful for slippery tiles; it doesn't have too much traction. Comfortable, good support. I work standing on my feet all day so it does a good job with that. Heavy though not for sports.

It is true what people have said; these develop a squeak that is almost embarrassing. Many people have commented on my squeaky shoes. Zappos return policy is useless as well, because the squeak doesn't start until the 3rd or 4th day of wearing the shoes. By then, they are not in brand new condition as you have worn them outside and to work for a week almost. Overall though, if the squeakiness wasn't there, the shoe would be perfect. If you don't mind squeaky shoes, these are for you.

I have not yet experienced the sort of squeaking I read about in other reviews, but I will give up some quiet for the unparalleled comfort of the Nike AirSole.

I wear these shoes to officiate basketball. I buy a new pair every year. Year one, I wear them on the court. Year 2, they rotate to my casual shoes. Year 3, they become my yard mowing shoes. Comfort and performance-wise, they are the best shoes I've found in this price range. As someone else pointed out, however, they are very loud. On the court it doesn't matter. But when I'm strolling through Target with cart full of groceries, I'm not exaggerating when I say that heads do actually turn and look. That's how loud they are. If you can live with that, this is a great shoe.

Most comfortable leather shoe I have ever worn. Wish they would make it look a little bit cool, even if they want to charge more. Drop the pull-up tab and add a red swoosh and you've got a cool and comfortable shoe.

I have been wearing Air Monarchs for jogging and casual use for years. Local outlets never seemed to have my model, or my size, or my color so one phone call and my old friends were at my door in 2 days at a good price.

True to size and very durable, wear them daily and last long.

Very comfortable shoe. I do a lot of standing and walking at work. With this shoe, my feet and legs are not as tired at the end of the day. Sturdy but not bulky and heavy.

This is a good shoe. However, this version of the shoe has been changed from prior versions: the shoe is not as high as before and it has much less support. Otherwise, it is a good shoe and full. The Air Monarch is really comfortable.

Very comfortable and fits well on large and wide feet. I have trouble finding shoes that fit because my feet are so wide. While I may admit that the look isn't exactly what I was going for, they fit and do the job of an everyday sneaker.

Guys these are some proper training shoes you can completely relay on. It lacks in style but the comfort level is unbeatable.

The most comfortable shoe I've ever worn, but they squeak and fart with every step on every surface except carpet. People can hear you coming down the hall 100 yards away.

I ordered 12.5, should have ordered a 13. Just a tad small - but after a few weeks it conformed to toes okay. Otherwise great shoe.

This is not the first pair of Nike Monarchs I have owned and that is the primary reason for this order. They are very comfortable and the black gives me a nice change from the white in the same shoe. Zappos, as always, did an excellent job. Thank you very much for existing.

I was so excited to get these shoes. The monarch air iv has been my go to since at least 2014 and when I saw this color, I had to have them. They feel different from my last pair (red and white). They feel a bit more narrow. The side by the outer ankle bone is taller, and it’s already rubbing my pinky toe wrong. A little bummed. I wore my last pair for almost 3 years and always chose them over my Hokas. I hope these can be “worn in”.

I had bought a pair of these a few years ago and loved them wore until this sole fell off so bought the exact same size in two styles. However, the newer shoes seem to run a little smaller unfortunately wore the black pair out and about so I could not return them I return the other pair and the 14 wide fit perfect

These are very wide, and they're bulkier than they seem on the website.

I'm a Letter Carrier. I walk ~11 miles a day. These shoes are comfortable, supportive, and seem to be fairly well made. My one complaint: they are, without a doubt, the noisiest shoes I've ever worn. They squeak. Constantly. On all surfaces (even grass). Even after a month of 11-ish miles a day, 5 days a week. They're well broken-in and still squeak like they're wet and I'm walking on linoleum. Absolutely maddening.

Wider than normal and longer too.

Bought these when they were $75 put a lot of outdoor walking on them, bottom line they lasted 90 days, 75 was a little too much money for that many days as with most manufacturers, quality was better in previous models or years, if you demand a lot from your shoes you may want to try a different model or manufacturer....

All was OK with size, comfort, and fit, but a personal dislike was in the way the laces kind of double-looped around the outside of the aglets to secure them. It made lacing and unlacing them a small bother for me.

I like these shoes BUT I have had two pairs of these and both had the sole peel away from the uppers long before the shoe was close the being worn out. I thought the first pair was a fluke, but the second pair died even faster

It was hurt my little finger when I wore it.

These shoes didn't have the cushion when walking that I wanted. I wasn't every happy with the style either.
