Overall, excellent shoe for the price. Comfortable and durable. A little narrower than I am used to for a D - Medium but not enough to cause any problems with the fit.

I am very pleased with these shoes. They felt good from the moment I put them on. I did need to get them a 1/2 size bigger than I normally wear though so you may want to do that too.

Its a stylish comfortable shoe, but I wouldnt recommend it for distance running, I developed pretty bad blister in the arches of my feet.

A sturdy, comfortable shoe. Pretty much what I expected from Nike, but at a very good price.

The shoe was better in person than the picture. They were comfortable right out of the box. Excellent.

Bought these for my teenage son to wear to school. Didn't hear any complaints about them. Love shopping with Zappos. Fast shipping.

Got these for my 13-year-old, 7th grader to finish out the school year. Glad they were on sale, b/c in a month, when school's out, he'll be wearing sandals. I wasn't sure he'd like the silver, but he doesn't mind. He was on a field trip a few days ago and some dad bought him a Sprite b/c of his cool shoes! So there! He hasn't gotten teased or anything. He has very narrow feet and NIKE seems to fit well.

Great shoes! Great price! Great service! Zappos makes it easy to buy great products and stands behind those products in service and returns.

Great shoe, even better deal! This shoe is very stable, good cushioning, and comfortable. Watch out for the high back of the ankle tongue; can dig in if you are prone to this. Otherwise, buy them, great walking and training shoe.

I ordered thus shoe two weeks ago, the shipping was great and I love the shoe, but all of a sudden now it makes a weird sound when I step on my left foot. Like a squishy sound, really annoying.

Great looking and good support. True to Nike, they are a tad small. Recommend 1/2 size up

Make sure to order half a size larger than normal. They seem a bit narrow. I had to return the first pair. I had absolutely no problems! That was the easiest On-line return process that I have ever encountered. I am sold on Zappos!

Best shoes I have bought in awhile. I have a hard time finding athletic shoes that don't hurt my feet when exercising, but these are the best I own. I have purchased several other brands and styles but these are still the best!

I bought these shoes for work, I stand all day. They are very comfortable, quite wide and good cushion. They also look great.

Nike has been an outstanding brand for my son, who is the ultimate shoe destroyer. He is all-sport, all action and has shredded other brands within a few weeks. The color and style is great and comfortable. Nike tends to run narrow with some styles, but the Initiator fits him fine!

Purchased for hubby, he has no complaints, the shoe is very stylish, and at a great price. They are durable and have held up pretty well...and my hubby is pretty rough on shoes...so I'm happy with this purchase.

My husband really likes these shoes, before we had purchased a much more expensive pair of Nikes, but I thought I would try these. He likes these better. I love Zappos, the free shipping and returns is great!

These shoes are great. This is my second pair. I like the gray because the shoes never appear to be dirty. They are comfortable for around the town. I wear them when exercising. Super comfy even for people with low arches such as myself. Just a good all-around shoe. I used to wear the Nike Dart IVs until they stopped making them and switched over to this. They kind of remind me of the Air Max shoes of the 90s...that was another thing that attracted me to them.
