The color and design are true to the picture.
This arrived in one day which was very convenient and it fits true to size.

I really enjoy these sneakers. I've started running this year and needed a shoe specifically for that. Great support!

These are not my all time favorite sneakers. They are wider than I typically like and the white brim is larger than I think is stylish, but overall, they are true to form and a pretty comfortable set of kicks.

These are great shoes for the price, brand, style, comfort, and usage. My only problem was that they gave me blisters on my ankles the first time I used them. My skin adapeted/I wore higher socks and now they're great. If you wear socks lower than your sneakers, these may not be the pair for you. But otherwise, order away!

I ordered these shoes for my wife and they were absolutely beautiful. The only problem is that the size 7 did not fit like the size 7 she buys at the store.

Definitely order this shoe a half size larger. I wear size 10, and my toe touched the end of the shoe. Very nice looking, and lightweight, though.

This shoe is a nice shoe. It just didn't work for what I wanted to use it for. It is probably a true running/walking shoe. It hurt the balls of my feet when I was doing straight on step aerobics, and especially when doing something from the step to the floor. (i.e. repeaters) It just didn't have enough support in the ball of the foot area for me. The shoe looks really nice on, and is comfortable otherwise. I probably should have sprung for cross-trainers,but I was trying to save a few $ and ended up having to order another pair anyway. One thing to note, the first week or two of trying these, black rubbed off of the shoe onto my socks after working out. It does come off in the wash.

Length is perfect! My big toe has ample room to move without being jammed into the top of the show. Width: Maybe I have an extra wide foot... I loosened the all the laces and still these felt a bit tight. I have on a thin sock so I'm not sure I can wear a thinner sock and have more room. I wish it were a bit roomier so I could keep them but they will likely go back. :(

These are great shoes except that the stitching is coming apart after only two months. I mostly just stand and walk in them. Zappos will not return them because they have been worn and Nike will not even swap them for a new pair, they will only inspect and possibly give a voucher to their website, which does not carry these shoes. I am not pleased.
I'd also recommend:
Under Armour....better return/exchange and customer service

This is a good shoe but doesn't have as much cushion as I wanted. I had to get inserts to make it comfortable for fast walking and jogging. Good style and fit.

This is my third pair of these shoes because they are so comfortable. They have a soft mesh and leather upper, but the mesh wears out pretty quickly compared to all leather shoes. I buy them for comfort.

Ugg, I had such expectations for these shoes! In person, they really are not that attractive. They aren't ugly, but nothing special. And while the reviews made it sound like there is good support, it is pretty inadequate. Some in the heel, little at the toes and NONE in the arch. I have slightly flat feet so I don't need much but my feet & legs were complaining after wearing them inside for just 10 min. Not a great pair of Nike's. Such a bummer, they are going back.

I am not satisfied with this shoe at all. I purchased this shoe on March 10, 2014 and now it is making a horrible clicking noise as if the bottom has collapsed already. I don't do enough in the shoe for them to be collapsed. I would not purchase this item again.

These shoes crippled me. I've never been disappointed with a shoe from Nike like this before. The back of the shoes would not wear in despite continuous use for a month. I went through 2 boxes of band-aids for the back of my heels before I finally asked for my money back from Nike!
