Love these shoes! I think they are the comfy-est I own and they're pretty cute! I wear them on my walks and they are super plush yet give the amount of support I need. On other Nike models, I find sometimes the shoelaces pinch the top of my foot cutting circulation off if I don't tie them just right but these don't have that problem. There were some other color combinations available when I was ordering but now they're sold out - I will definitely buy a couple of the other color combos when they're avail again! Oh yeah - as always with Nike - I had to order 1/2 size larger and that was perfect.

Honestly, I was drawn to these shoes by the color. Happy to find that they were also true to size, comfortable for treadmill running, and able to absorb shock pretty decently. Very happy with this purchase.

I wear athletic shoes with jeans. It is highly unlikely I will ever do anything remotely athletic in them. I spent six months trying to find another pair of Nikes like my previous pair. This pair came very close. The fact that they're inexpensive is an unexpected bonus! I don't know how well this pair will hold up, but I wore my last pair of lesser-expensive Nikes for waaaay longer than I should have and they still look good.

These shoes were for my daughter and she loves them. She plays tennis 3+ hours a week and wears them to school most days.

I absolutely loved these shoes from the second I put them on! I wear them everywhere and they are so comfortable. I'm noticing a slight de-threading but I've had them for over a month and like I said I wear them EVERYWHERE. Only thing to definitely be concerned about is there isn't any slip resistance. I fell down a flight of stairs the first time I wore them to work at a busy animal hospital.

I bought these shoes for a recent trip to Walt Disney World and they held up great. Anyone who has taken a trip to the parks there knows that there's a LOT of walking involved. I had absolutely no complaints with these shoes! No foot or ankle pain. I typically wear an 8.5 in shoes, but have had a better fit ordering a half size up in Nike. My size 9's worked perfectly for my needs. The pink is a bit brighter in person, but I found that to be a good thing. Super cute color combination!

Love these shoes. So comfortable right out of the box. Order a half size up, Nikes always run a little small.

I love these shoes. Comfortable from the beginning workout through the end of the workout. I bought these for the treadmill only. They support well and they are not heavy which is important to me.

These shoes fit me perfect. I always order a half size larger and my normal size when I order Nike. I wore them for walking the first day after I got them and they are very comfortable. Did not need to break them in at all.

Great and professional service, as always.
I had a question regarding my payment status and receipt, and the staff was very helpful, via the online chat and Email.
Also, excellent shoe, and accurate color and size.

I have to say...I've had Nikes in the past and with a job where I'm on my feet all day, I had not had much luck. My feet and legs would be killing me by the end of the day. But after reading reviews for this shoe, I decided to give them a try. I'm so glad I did! They are so comfortable! I not only wear these at work, but also to work out! Definitely recommend these!

I really love these shoes. My feet are bad from plantar fasciitis but these shoes are like miracle workers. I'm looking into buying another pair or 2 just to have them. I've gotten lots of compliments. Thanks Zappos!

This is a stylish, really comfortable gym shoe but I do wish Nike would add more of the same colors for women as they do for men. Women like greens and blues as well as pink and purple combinations!

Great shoe! Lightweight. Fits snugly across the top of the foot which I like. Doesn't slip off back. There is nothing touching the bunion area of my foot either. So glad Nike finally makes a size 12 women's shoe!

I've had these shoes for a few weeks now, and I really like them. I recently returned a pair of Adidas running shoes that I'd had for about 6 months, but that made my feet feel like they were dying. These shoes are cute and comfortable, although they run 1 size too small. I ordered my size, which was way too small, but exchanged it for a size up and they fit perfectly. I wear them to work out (elliptical, mostly), and around the house on weekends. My feet do feel tired at the end of the day, but that's probably normal.

I love these shoes. They were comfortable right out of the box. They had the perfect amount of support, flexible yet supportive, cradling the foot just right. And they are cute!

I just received a brand new pair of Nike Downshifter 5 runners in black, orange and grey from my cousin as a gift. I can't thank him enough for selecting these for me because I just love them! The colors have such a powerful and amazing energetic effect that just completely catches the eye and livens up every step in comfort and style! and it's the word beyond "cool" They are half a size up from my normal shoe size and they feel completely awesome. Just what I need.

I love these shoes, great support and long lasting. I bought them a year ago to start running and getting into shape and i've never had an injury. I would recommend getting a half size bigger because i developed a small hole near my big toe after a few months.
