I bought these for my husband because we were going on a vacation where we would be doing a lot of walking. These shoes were so comfortable! He loved them. They are a little small by the toes.

I didn't buy these shoes from Zappos as to they were not available at the time. But if they were available I would've bought them from here. Like all Nike Shox they are a little heavy compared to other shoes. I love Shox though, they are comfortable, last a long time, and can be put through rough conditions and come out clean and looking like new.

I like the style of the shoe, especially the design of the toe. Protects your feet better than any other shoe. Great arch support and a great sturdy shoe.

These are reasonably comfortable right out of the box and break in rather quickly. Please note, however, that they run quite small, so order at least half a size larger than you normally wear. Even then, expect a tight (snug) fit, especially on the top of the foot. I have not worn Nikes in a very long time and they do feel different in that way than any other pair I have ever worn. I would be remiss if I didn't praise Zappos for the amazing customer service. I had to replace the first pair with a larger one and that literally arrived at my door in less than 24 hours!

I've been running in Nike Air for almost 20 years now and should have stuck with it. This Nike Shock shoe is heavy and uncomfortable. I tried running 6 miles in this shoe (2 miles each time) and the pain to the top of my foot was excruciating while running. I remained sore even a day afterward. I could tell my knees were taking a beating while running in this shoe as well. I tried to break this shoe in, but its now going back for Nike Air.

These are my third pair of Nike Shox shoes. I walk 6 to 9 miles a day--just the nature of the job, and at the end of the day, these shoes leave my feet the least tired of all the running shoes that I've tried. The only thing that I would change is it took 5 days for them to arrive from the time that I received the confirmation of shipment e-mail from Zappos. Bottom line, the time that it took to get the shoes is not up to Zappos usual standard of excellence.

The picture we ordered off was not at all the same color as the shoe that arrived. Its very pale Grey with very lil other color on it and the other color is very turquoise it took quite a while to adjust to it, waited for about 2 weeks before deciding to keep them or wear them at all, as we had already returned one pair based on size,. The shoe is nice. but the dark grey and blue you see is not at all the same color that is arrives in. Other than that Zappos is AMAZing!!!!

My dogs are barking. It's been a very long time since a new shoe has given me blisters. The balls and heels of my feet are being rubbed the wrong way. They seem to have excellent cushion, but may take awhile to form to my foot.

These are for those with medium to narrow width, and Nike's usually do run a little small. But once you get past the fit requirements, these are some of the most comfortable athletic shoes I've ever worn. And during the break-in period (about a week) had my calves on fire, until the muscles adapted to your weight moving to the front of your feet.

I've had these for about a month now, and they are great! The only thing is some of the orange is starting to peel off the Shox, but it pretty much looks unavoidable. I used them for long walks along with some gel inserts, and they are very comfortable.
I had tried both these on in a store, as well as the Nike Zoom Vomero +7, and I must admit the Vomero is the most comfortable sneaker I've ever tried on. I prefer the styling of the Shox NZ above, which is why I went with them. I'd like to pick up the Vomeros as my next pair. Both are super comfortable, Vomeros were even more comfortable.

Wow, I wanted to like this shoe. I ordered one in a 10.5 (I normally wear a 10) because of a few reviews that hinted it might be smaller than you'd expect. I couldn't even fit it on my foot unlaced! I returned the 10.5 and bought it in 11 and 11.5. I tried on the 11.5 first, expecting to be swimming in the shoe. Although the tip of the toe was probably an inch beyond the end of my big toe, the shoe still felt incredibly tight in the "toebox!" In other words, this shoe is Narrow. I order lots of different brands of shoes, but Nike is not a brand I've bought much in my life; therefore, maybe I just don't know how a Nike feels. What I do know is that I'm steering clear of this shoe in any size. I don't have big feet, but I felt like it when attempting to put this shoe on! Kudos to Zappos for making online shoe shopping as easy as it can be!

These shoes look leather on the web site but they are a shiny plastic with a lot of nylon mesh.

I've had these shoes for a couple weeks now. I've used them to run and strength train. I've also used them for days when I'm doing a lot of walking around town. This is a high quality athletic shoe. The heel cushioning and side to side movement support are excellent. The upper material seems really durable so far. A word of caution, however: in some ways these shoes feel a half size smaller than most. I usually wear a size 12. I ordered these Nike Shox NZ in size 12 and they fit, but they fit tight. I think they're made that way to provide stability, so they work especially well in cross training situations. If you just want to wear them casually, tie them loose and slip them on to walk around, I recommend buying a half size larger than usual.

These shoes are awesome. They feel a little tight at first, but after a couple hours of wear/break-in time they are very comfortable. Provide good support for working out, running, etc and they look great too.

I ordered these for my son, and put them on and immediately said that they felt good on his feet; very light and comfortable. He wears orthotics, and they fit in the shoes just fine.

My grandson, who is a Nike Shox devotee, arrived for the holiday in the most worn out Nikes I could imagine. He loves them and intends to wear them out and is not the least concerned that they might look worn out. But I quickly got on-line and ordered the nearest Shox equal, and with Zappos quick delivery, he was trying them on in two days, but they didn't fit. I telephoned Zappos to check out a replacement and was pleased to find his second choice Nike Shox was available in one size larger. The second pair also arrived quickly, before he left town and fit to a tee. He is happy, and I am relieved. A holiday week and two deliveries -- how wonderful! Many thanks Zappos.

I liked this shoe, but did not fit with my orthotic. There wasn't enough height inside the shoe. The length was fine.

I have been really happy with this purchase, Nike has always been a good fit for me. One thing I noticed was that they felt a little snug and narrow than what I was used to. I would recommend this shoe to anyone whose job has them on their feet...very comfortable overall.
