Got these for cross-training when training for a half-marathon. I will never buy a Nike shoe again because of the narrowness of them. I wear a size 6 but my feet are a little wider than normal. I've never had problems with Mizunos or Brooks, but these are so narrow the make the sides of my feet hurt. The style/colors of Nikes are awesome though. Wish they made a wider version for people like me.

Let me start by saying that I loved these shoes. I have been wearing for months to mostly zumba classes. No complaints about the fit at all. It was also easy for me to move around while dance and they are very flexible. Sadly recently I notice a funny feeling underfoot while dancing. It turns out the triangle panels underneath started to peel off! Also the black part of the heel shown in picture started to peel as well. Not too happy with that. I have never had a pair of sneakers come apart in this way! I did get them on sale so maybe I got my money's worth.

I was excited about these, but returning them, because of the fit. I have a wide foot, so these just won't work for me- I wear a 9- 9 1/2 and the 10 feels too tight. I guess they might stretch a bit, but I'm not willing to risk it. Very cute style-wise, though.

I bought these shoes because I loved the previous version so much but was pretty disappointed with these. The color selection was poor, the shoe fit differently and the biggest let down is that the flex sole tore away after only about five wears! Thank goodness Zappos is so great about returns and they took the shoe back no questions asked and kept my business for sure!

While these shoes are cute, and I'm a usually a Nike lover, I would not recommend them for high-intensity workouts or running. I got them and wore them to my regular gym classes for a week (HIIT and RIPPED). Well, I ended up with a tibial stress fracture! These shoes are pretty narrow (I have narrow feet) and they are too tight to put in any arch supports or inserts. The length was fine, so going up a size wouldn't have helped with the narrowness. To sum it up: these do not offer enough support, they are too tight and do not have much cushion. If those things are important to you, get a different shoe! Thanks to Zappos great customer service I was able to do just that. Thanks Zappos, you rock!

I am not very impressed with these shoes. For one, they run about half a size too small. The tongue is connected to the bottom of the shoe so they are very difficult to get on properly. And I was not able to put my inserts in them. I was not very impressed, I will not buy them again.

What happened to old fashioned shoes that opened by loosening the laces, pulling up the tongue, sliding your foot inside, pushing the tongue down, pulling the laces taught and tying a bow? I loosened the laces and found the tongue isn't even a tongue, it's just all shoe all the way around the foot. I couldn't figure out how to stretch the shoe opening wide enough to get my foot inside. Well, maybe if I scraped the skin off the top of my foot. This might be the new style but it was not what I was looking for. I can't say if it fit or was comfortable, I couldn't get them on. The description didn't say "slip on" shoe. At least not in words that I could understand. Of course I am returning them because this isn't the kind of shoe that I wear. I can't recommend them. They may be great shoes, I can't tell.

I am a teacher and coach. The first time I wore these shoes was a complete work day and I took them off as soon as I got home. I put them back on the next morning to go to school and within one hour into the school day I noticed that part of the sole on the right foot was almost completely off. I had to go to the art room and borrow some glue to keep that part of the sole intact. The only active thing I did in these shoes was walking and standing. Very disappointed.

Color is more purple than pink. Not comfortable to wear all day. Or even walk for two miles on the treadmill. They are light weight. The bottom is more like a plastic than a rubber sole. These are my most least favorite pair of Nikes I have ever owned!

Sides are too soft and allows you to feel the leather-like straps on the sides. The tongue is attached to these straps and cannot be adjusted or pulled up. Not as good as original Flex Trainer- not as much support for cross-training workout.

I do not like these shoes at all. I guess I did not read all the reviews before purchase. They are tight on my feet and there is no cushioning. They are very flat, no support for intense exercise classes. I wear them to work where I sit all day, but not to the gym because they hurt my feet during and after exercise. They also work better with no socks due to the form fitting nature of the shoes. The only plus is cute style and they make my feet look small.

I just wore these shoes to exercise in for the first time today and had a problem with my feet tingling like they were falling asleep mid-class. I stopped and loosened/adjusted them, but feeling did not improve. Sure wish I didn't wear so I could return. I should stick with Asics: They rock and give me no problems. Hope you get new styles soon!

I am 51 years old and have always worn a size 7. This shoe is very tight, even with the thinnest of socks. The tongue is not separated from the shoe. So there really is no need for shoelaces. It's like a water sock.
