Worth the price!!!
Stylish. Extremely comfortable. I usually have problems with arch support, but that is not the case with these sneakers. I can wear them for hours on end.

Great Support!
I just replaced my dance sneakers with these and what a difference. Most dance sneakers don't have very much support or cushion. These are great looking and comfortable. I love to Zumba/hip hop.

Love the look but...
These Shox have an awesome look and go great with even khaki pants or capris. The only thing is that they are not as comfortable as The Adidas Supernova that I also bought at the same time as these Shox. Other than that you can wear these tennis only for about 4-5 hours before your feet start to ache a little. I am thinking this is because of the arch support it is no good.

Awesome Shoe!
Bought these shoes for kickboxing and they are way better than any cross trainer I've ever had. They look and feel great.

I am a nurse and am on my feet all day at a clinic. These shoes have helped so much! No more heel pain and my feet don't hurt.

I love them -
I've had lots of compliments - I got the white ones, but they are especially great for Zumba/cardio funk classes. I was wearing running shoes and my knees were bothering me - these are perfect for twisting and moving! Everyone who does zumba should get these!

After owning a pair of Nike Shox O Drives, I vowed never to buy another pair of Shox again. But someone recommended these who had also owned the O Drives. This shoe has great cushioning, good support, and feels lightweight. After striking out on cardio shoe after cardio shoe (I tried NB, Asics, and other Nike models), finding these was a great relief.

Great Aerobic shoe -
Very comfortable shoe. Definitely needed the extra 1/2 size larger than what I usually wear in this shoe, which seems to be the case for Nike, in general. Have to agree with some of the other reviews regarding the tongue. It just seems to be a little too short and tends to shift during workouts, but no where near a deal- breaker. It's also wider in the toe box than other shoes I've tried. I would recommend this shoe and will definitely consider it again.

Many comments -
I wore these right out of the box and they felt great on my feet I bought them for work. I am on my feet 8 hours a day. I have many, many comments on them on how great they look. I bought the white/black. They are more white with purple.

Great for zumba b/c of smooth sole and pivot point. Needs more cushioning though for impact absorption.

I bought these shoes for a Zumba class. We do a lot of jumping and wish these shoes had better cushion and arch support. However, they do allow for easy movement and pivoting on the floor.

I bought these shoes specifically for Zumba and based on the other recommendations. The first day I wore them to class my feet hurt so bad, I had to stop quite a few times to re-lace the shoes to help make them more comfortable. I've rearranged them quite a few times and they just don't work for my feet. I've noticed quite a few girls in class wearing them and I'm ready to put up a sign that I'll sell mine to someone with narrower feet.

Great for Dance Fitness -
I teach Body Vive at Golds Gym, which is a low impact cardio class. There are a lot of dance moves taking you side to side. These shoes keep my feet stable throughout the class.

Great, but not perfect -
I bought these shoes to use for a Zumba class - because I needed shoes that provided support and cushioning, but also had a pivot point on the ball of the foot so that I can more easily twist and turn (as required for Zumba - a fantastic Latin dance aerobics class). They do provide a pivot point, and that's been wonderful. They also have pretty good cushioning. I have two main critiques. First, the arch support is not sufficient for my high arches, but because it's a close-fitting shoe, my previous arch support inserts are too big to fit well into this shoe (I've just purchased some 3/4 length slim prostep arch supports, so hopefully those will work better). Second, and more problematic, the tongue of this shoe tends to shift (generally toward the outside) repeatedly during my workout. When this happens, the shoe simply doesn't support my foot as well and this leads to ankle pain pretty quickly. I'm trying to figure out a solution for this problem now. Otherwise, however, these are great shoes for dance aerobics classes. I'm happy to have them - I just wish the tongue would stay put!
(Also, they run about a half size small, like all Nike shoes for women, in my experience).

Zumbalicious -
I bought these shoes specifically for Zumba, but they work well for step and I have even worn them for lifting weights. They are a specialty shoe and are not suitable for running or other high impact type exercise. I love the way they look, I got the gray ones with the blue swoosh. I wish they would glide a little more smoothly on the bottom tread, the rubber of the sole sometimes gets stuck mid step. Over all a great shoe for dance fitness!

Great Shoe -
This is a great shoe, great look. Very little arch support, but with some Dr. Scholl’s, one of the best running shoes I've had in a while. Nike is notorious for running small, but feels pretty true to size and fits my wide feet perfectly. Still if comfort is what you are looking for then I recommend this second, first to Adidas Gigaride.

Nike Shox Electro -
These Shox are immediately incredibly comfortable. I teach a wght trng/aerobics class and found them ideal for the aerobics portion of my class. Excellent for high impact and lateral movements. They had acceptable performance for lunges and wght trng with movement. If you are looking for a shoe for an impact based activity, this is the best I have found in 20 years of teaching.

In general this shoe is ok, but there a few problems -
I use this show for Jazzercise. It provides good stability and flexibility. However, I expected more from this relatively expensive sport show. For example, the laces come untied frequently so must 'double bow' the laces. The tongue also slips to the side and must be re-positioned during workout otherwise the corner of the shoe pokes into the top of the foot.

I tried on this and the Ryka Studio D, which is what I ended up keeping. I was getting these mainly for Zumba class. The shoe is comfortable and nimble, but there is not enough cushioning in the forefoot for all those salsa "on the toes" type moves. I also don't think the pivot spot does anything.

I love the gray color, but was otherwise a bit disappointed in this shoe. It doesn't look as good on the foot as it does in the photos - the toe seems rounder and the shoe looks sort of puffy rather than sleek. More problematic: the tongue of the shoe is not padded at the top and digs into the foot a bit and, as other reviewers have noted, the tongue slides to the side after a short period of wearing them. I do like that the soles are designed for easy pivoting on gym floors and they offer pretty good support, but I'm going to send them back and keep looking.

Too narrow -
These shoes were way too narrow for my feet. My feet were getting numb.

Nike Shox Electro OK at best -
I liked the look of the shoe online. It did have a more angular shaped toe than what the picture seemed to convey. (I like the rounded toe better) After going out and putting it to use I was somewhat disappointed. The shoestrings are constantly coming untied, and the tongue of the shoe is always sliding over to the side. I take a high impact cardio class and it left the muscles in my arches very sore two days later. Now in all fairness, it had been a while since I had taken the class so this could have been a result of that. My only way to measure as to which was the cause of the arches being sore was that my old shoes never gave me that problem after taken a hiatus from the class for several weeks. If I could return the shoe now I would. I did try them on over a carpeted area of my apartment but it's hard to tell how something will perform until you take it out for its intended use.
