Customer Reviews Nike Mayfly

These shoes are amazing. They are the lightest shoes I have ever owned. And they are very comfortable. I used to get "shin splints" when I ran in my heavy running shoes. But now that I have started wearing these, shin splints are a thing of the past. These are by far my favorite running shoes.

No frills in a good way. These shoes seem to get more comfortable with each mile. I've only run one 5k and one 10k in them, but I never even thought of my feet/shoes during the race; that's uncommon for me. Light as a feather (almost)!

I'm not a runner, just want shoes that are light and breathe well. These are the lightest shoes I have ever had! They are 4.5 ounces each and have a breathing hole up through the sole. As stated, they are designed to only last about 100k...or approximately 60 miles. We'll see, since they are casual shoes to me. I use Zappos exclusively now for all my shoe purchases. I tell everybody I know about Zappos.

Great, light weight shoe. Like every flexible and minimalist shoe, if your feet are not used to the flexibility, you need to 'work up to' running in them. Otherwise, you risk injury.

Love it love it love it! Not just for running, but for everyday or whenever you wish for something comfortble.

Feel great, look cool, and lots of compliments! Although they won't last long, I think the price is commensurate with the short life span. People ask me where I got them. Wear them mainly for CrossFit gym. I normally wear women's size 11, and the men's 9.5/ women's 11 fit perfectly.

A friend had a pair and I said I want those shoes, as does everyone else who sees them. You can only find these shoes on line. Extremely light weight, (the fabric is similar to parachute material) and very comfortable. I normally wear a ladies 7.5, but had to return it for an 8.

I happened upon these shoes when I sent back a birthday gift from relatives. I have long been a fan of the original Nike Free 5.0 IDs -- lightweight, flexible, and oh so comfortable. I read the description of the Mayflys, and since I buy flyweight sneakers primarily for casual use (Nike Vomeros for running), I was not put off by the specter of the Mayflys self-destructing after 60 miles or so. Great decision! These shoes are the most comfortable I've ever worn and are so far tough as nails -- and truly unnoticeable on your feet. Except for the fact that everybody who notices them will ask where, when, how you got them. Great shoe with good arch support and heel cushioning. Buy a half size larger than dress shoes.

I just got this shoe and it is super light! It looks amazing and I used it for running and Zumba. I have thin feet and no problems with support. Great buy.

Great lightweight shoes. Best shoe for the buck. Color is great.

These shoes are fantastic! They are light as a feather, provide good arch support, and are extremely comfortable for running! My teen daughter was excited to get them and could not wait to wear them for school sports!

Very light weight, looks to go over the 100K advertised. Made me decided to go minimalist, but not barefoot. Downside - I have wide feet; these may cause blisters in some areas if used without socks.

The product is fine. I was looking for ultralight shoes to use as camp shoes for backpacking. At 4.5 oz per shoe, these fit the bill. What is extraordinary is Zappos. Phenomenal service. I will never shop elsewhere if I can find what I want at Zappos.

Super shoes, super light, super color - love 'em! I have 2 pair --- hope Nike keeps making them forever! (Even more colors: yellow? blue? grey?) They work fine with my orthotics.

Four stars only due to variety of colors. Awesome shoes! I got them because I travel a lot and wanted something light with a keen ability to disappear in my luggage. Now I have a hard time finding them, and when I do, running is that much fun. Recommend as your event day running shoe.

I think I run faster in these, although they lack sufficient support for my flat feet. One of the black rubber thingies on the sole peeled off last night, which is annoying. I would still recommend this sneaker, though. They weigh as much as a plastic bag, make for the perfect travel sneaker, and are ridiculously stylish.

These sneaks are super light! I've never worn anything lighter on my feet. I've run less than 10 miles on treadmills, and the only problem I've felt is a little bit of pain at the balls of my feet. I suspect a lack of cushion or I may just need to get used to them. Otherwise, I'm running these to the ground! Which should be pretty fast, but for the price, they're still a great deal.

Very comfy and lightweight. Love them, except they are disposable. They were made to last for a 100k. Didn't know that until I received the shoe and read the info on the collector's bag it came with. The upper half of the shoe is made out of a cheap, breathable, plasticy kind of material. Hard to explain, but if you're looking for a more durable shoe, find another. If you just want a cheap shoe you won't override, this is a great buy.

These are pure kicks for me...I like the color and the style so I rock them with my skinny gear and shorts. Very light and more comfortable than I thought after feeling them.

I got these for the summer/zumba classes based on the reviews and although they look and feel great, they are noisy. I didn't see this comment elsewhere (I may have missed it?). The crinkle material loudly crinkles with each step. My husband, son and I agreed this would drive any one of us batty. They look fabulous and felt like I expected but no go. Oh well.

This shoe is made to last 100 meters (64 miles) per the label on the inside of the shoe. I was not aware of this at time of order. A little disappointed at this surprise.

Awesome shoe! Too bad they run very small. I actually had to give them away to someone with less narrow feet.

I bought these for my 13 yr old son for track practices. The material is like what a kite is made of. I don't think I read the description fully so I was very surprised when they arrived. They ripped after the first wearing. They are more like a one-time use shoe than anything to train in.

This shoe was a huge disappointment. My son wore it for 2 weeks and it literally fell apart at the seams. The fabric tore right off the sole of the shoe. I would love to return them but we threw the box away. My advice: do not buy this shoe

I have put about 200 miles on this BadBoys and used them on my first 1/2 Marathon and they improved my time by a lot... Love them... I wish they make more colors so I could buy them all!
