Customer Reviews Nike Initiator

My feet hurt so bad after only wearing them for one day that I had to soak my feet in hot water and rub my feet so that I could wear other shoes. I have had other Nike sneakers that I loved in the past but because of these shoes, I may never buy Nike sneakers again.

The Nike sneakers are pretty, but they hurt like the devil, LOL! The instep was so tight I have marks on the top of my instep. Every night when I take them off, I scratch because of the tightness of the sneaker. I thought I had ordered a WIDE, obviously not. I have been wearing them for approx. 3 weeks and decided to get a pair of FlipFLOPS, talk about relief! Overall the sneaker is fine, just too tight for me.

Great fit! I thought the color was supposed to be red (note cherry) but it turned out being pink. I was really trying to coordinate with my work uniform (black, white, red)!

These are horrible running shoes. They do not fit true to size. Very tight in the toe and too loose in the heel. They are at least off by 1/2 a size and do not have the cushion support they claim to have.

The color in the picture looks red but they are actually hot pink. Cherry is considered a red color -- not pink. I needed shoes right away though so I'm keeping them.

I have never been so pleased with ordering online until this one. My order was exactly as seen in the ad and delivery was almost immediate.

I love these shoes. I've been looking for a pair of turquoise shoes for a while, and these are just perfect. They seem a tad shorter than I expected, and the ball of my left foot gets sore after walking over 3 miles, so I put a gel pad in the shoe and works fine now.

If you need arch support, this is not your shoe. It fits well but very uncomfortable even with or without orthotics. Will not purchase this again.

Excellent shoe for me, the underpronator, I've gotten another pair now and I plan to keep buying them when they wear out because they completely solve my knee issue which was partially caused by my foot rolling outward. I got them initially because I was going to NY and I planned on walking around a lot and was really worried about my knee acting up, but I was a walking superhero and the shoes were brilliant. Nike's always are a half size too small to me, so I just always get a half size larger than usual.

Like these shoes. My friend saw them and also wanted a pair. A little roomier than most Nikes as I always order a half size up. The fit is comfortable but do wish there was a little more support/padding at the ball of the foot.

I bought these for my mother-in-law as a birthday present. Normally, she likes all white sneakers, but I thought these would add a little burst of color. She loved them! They fit true to size.

Extremely comfortable and of course ordering and receiving from Zappos is easy and convenient. I have to wear these for work. I do a lot of standing and walking so these are great.

Love my new shoes. They look good and feel great. I would highly recommend these shoes.

Love these sneakers, this is my second pair in this color and I have a pair in black. I've had 3 back surgeries and these sneakers are so comfortable that's why I got a second pair and then I bought my best friend a pair too.

Ordered these in wide width. They are way too narrow! Couldn't wear them for more than 30 seconds they were so tight!

I have been walking a lot on my treadmill and I bought several different types of shoes and my feet hurt in all until I got the Nike Initiator. They feel great on my feet! I couldn't believe the comfort. Even the break in period didn't last long. These shoes are awesome!! I will definitely buy another pair! Almost forgot, but the price is very reasonable,too!!

I bought these shoes for my mom, and she is loving them. She's had several knee surgeries and was looking for something that would suit her physical therapy needs and be comfortable. She also has a rather wide foot, so the W sizing option was great for her. My mom is not an online shopper and had never used Zappos before, but when she saw that you could view a video of the shoe, she was thrilled. The shows also arrived super quickly. Great purchase overall. I love Zappos!

Zappos provided great service! They were out of stock when I first placed the order, but they notified me as soon as they were able to get my size. Love my Nike tennis shoes!

I absolutely love these. They are super cute and comfortable, with my job I am on my feet pretty much all day long and they don't hurt at all. They are a perfect fit. Love them!

I just purchased these sneakers and I love the way they looked. But I bought the 10W and they felt narrow. I would suggest that you go up half a size. I called Zappos and exchanged them. They provide wonderful service. I will recommend you to friends.

GREAT athletic shoe all around. However, please know, as others have said, that the black color with cherry trim is more of a bright pink trim (but I don't mind, I like that color too). Other than that LOVE these! Fits is perfect, right out of the box. I breathed a sigh of relief knowing FINALLY I have comfy shoes! I will probably be ordering more colors too! Hard to find a sturdy sole these days and this is perfect for my needs. Zappos is the best!

These shoes were much heavier and clunkier than I thought they would be. It feels like walking on planks, with little to no support. My feet actually felt worse after wearing them. They come pretty wide. I have wide feet and they were still a little big on the width. They are not recommended.

I own a pair in white and decided they were so comfortable I needed a pair in black. Great fit & support for my feet.
