Love the green color... bright and fun without looking like someone went crazy with a box of neon markers. Runs super small. I normally wear an 8.5 or 9. Always order a 9 in Nikes. Heard these ran small, so I ordered a 9.5 which is still too small. Returning for a 10? I've never had a size 10 shoe in my life. Order big, ladies!

Great design, soft sole, vivid color, but they run almost two sizes small! I am a true 8, will have to change to 9.5.

I loved the old Nike 5.0 and the material which had a little more give. As much as I loved the Nike Free, I do not like the fabric on these shoes at all. They are very stiff with very little give and makes the shoe seem smaller and narrower than the old 5.0. I am very happy that they brought the shoes back out but I wish they would have stuck to the old version.

These are the first pair of Nikes that I've had to return and exchange for a bigger size. These shoes are a lot smaller and a lot narrower than any Nike shoes I've ever put on my feet. Otherwise, these shoes are great - they've got some arch support, are very flexible, and they're cute!

I love the way these shoes look; however, they do not fit my foot as well as the Free Run +3 shoes. These are more narrow in the toe box, and after wearing for a while, they cause some heel pain as if the bottom of my heel was bruised. They are super cute, but I think I will stick with the +3s in the future.

I absolutely love these shoes! They are the perfect shoes for cross training and running which both of which I do in these shoes and they are comfortable and supporting. These shoes are very light and breathable. I love the designs they come in. This is my third pair of these, they last a pretty long I would say I get a new pair about every 10 to 12 months. Even then I do not really need a new pair yet but I just want a new pair!

I normally wear a size 6.5 in all shoes, except Nike, which I always buy a 7. I bought a 7.5 after reading reviews to buy a full size larger. It was way too big! I was getting ready to send them back to Zappos (which Zappos totally rocks at returning things!)when my teenage daughter spotted them. Damn! She begged to keep them since they are so trendy. So, I ended up buying myself another pair in the usual size 7 and they fit perfect. The kids now are wearing all the bright colors of Nike. These have such cool details, from the pattern to the leather like material that adorns the shoe (we got the pink). And apparently, I am a 'cool' mom since she doesn't mind owning the same shoes at me. Ha!

Love these shoes! I bought a size up because I'm training for a half marathon in these and I could probably have gone a size and half because the toe area is very narrow BUT they don't hurt my feet.

I love these shoes! They are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I like the stretchy fabric and the soles are so comfy it's like walking on the beach in your bare feet. Also they are very light, they don't feel like they weigh anything. I wear a size 7 but I bought a size 7.5 and I am glad I did they run small.

I love my new Nikes. I had a hard time deciding between the black ones and the raspberry ones. I ended up getting the black ones but was worried that you wouldn't be able to see the leopard print (huge leopard print fan!). But you can clearly see the leopard print. I did have to order a half a size up after reading reviews. I'm a 6.5 but ordered a 7 and they fit perfectly. Definitely a great purchase!

Even though I read the reviews that said to get a bigger size, I figured since I had narrow feet I'll just order my normal size of 9.5. Well, that failed because when I received my 9.5 they were too small. However, ordering from Zappos is awesome because it's free shipping both ways, so I just returned the 9.5 and got a 10. The only thing that sucks is waiting for the second pair to arrive, but they came in 3 days and they fit so I'm a happy camper! I love Zappos! I would say listen to the reviews because most of the times they are accurate.

I really love these shoes but they do run super super small. If you're hesitating about ordering 1.5 sizes large please don't! I was and ordered an 8, my normal running shoe size, which was of course too small. I exchanged for an 8.5 and they still felt small. I returned them and will probably go for the 9 because they are nice running shoes. They're really lightweight so great for traveling, although they are not very supportive because the whole shoe is kind of soft. I originally wanted them for a trip that involves a bit of hiking so they probably aren't the best choice for that, but I'll definitely consider them next time I need running shoes.

I love these Nikes! I get compliments on them every single time I wear them... However, they definitely run small. I would recommend ordering a half size larger if you're planning to use them for cross training, or a full size larger if you're using them for running! I am a loyal Nike customer so this really surprised me.

These are super cute but run small. Also the material they are made of isn't stretchy like Nike Free shoes. So I'd recommend getting full size larger than you normally get for Nikes.

I like the color combo of these shoes. I was trying to replace a pair of lunar Nikes I had that are worn out. These shoes are very narrow; I typically wear a size 8 in shoes but always go to 8.5 in Nike's. Had to order a size 9 in this particular style. That would be the only thing I would beware of.

I own several pairs of various styles of Nike Free shoes and I found these to be much narrower than most. I have been wearing them around the house to see if they will break-in/stretch a little, but they are still pretty tight.

Love this shoe!!! I bought the black zebra and pink pair. Absolutely love and wore them until they fell apart after a year of working out. Wish they had them back in stock to order again!!
And yes, order bigger than you think!!! Runs super small.

I absolutely love these sneakers! They are so comfortable and stylish I get tons of compliments on them. And based off other reviews I ordered a half size down and I'm glad I did they fit perfect. I wanted these sneakers for awhile and I was able to get them on sale so that was a plus as well!
