Customer Reviews Nike Initiator

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.

Very nice shoe for the price, great for work or play! I would suggest getting a half size larger then you would normally wear for best fit, I took the advice from someone else and it worked for me!

This shoe was at least a half size smaller than marked. While reasonably comfortable and attractively priced, for me, after walking/running in them for a couple of weeks there was significant overpronation, knee, and back pain. This is just my experience, which is why I gave it 4 stars, mostly for the sizing issue.

I love these shoes and love Zappos.com it makes shopping easy. I would recommend the site and the shoe I run 2-3 miles 5 days a week and needed a shoe without air pockets that fail after 100 miles, these fit the bill.

I like the shoes. They seem to be just a tad small, but acceptable. They seem to be breaking in well and are definitely some good looking shoes.

Very wide. I needed a 2E and this is more like a 4E. Feels like a "fat man" shoe, if you know what I mean. I'm 5'11 and 190, so I don't think I fit that category. Arch is too low even for my very low arch, so not much support there. Not very springy, but quite stable. Don't buy these shoes if you want to run in them! They're okay for knocking around and such, but probably not for putting in serious miles.

Nice comfortable shoes, but not for running to heavy. I do 5 miles a day and I noticed my legs were hurting. Went back to my old shoes and bingo, pain stopped. Oh well, I'll use them for work. Still worth it.

Men's 12.5 true to size, very stiff. I don't think stiffness will diminish with wear. Haven't worn them much walking, mainly a low price shoe to put on when doing things around outdoors.

it was a bad fit for my feet not enough support

Yet again I am disappointed by Zappos—the shoes arrived and the color just doesn't match the picture . . . I guess I should have better understood that when it describes the color as metallic silver it would actually be a very shiny (aluminum shiny) silver, and I should not have relied on the picture. This has happened before with other shoes I've bought through Zappos and free returns or not, it's just not worth the hassle and delay. I’m disappointed in these shoes that are far uglier in person than online.
