Customer Reviews Nike Free 5.0+

These shoes are fantastic and I am very impressed with Zappos customer service. I had to return the shoes because they were a gift and I bought the wrong size. Zappos made the exchange so easy and they overnighted me the correct size. I will surely be shopping with them in the future.

I love the Nike Free shoes! I'm an occasional runner (3 miles a few times a week), but am currently training for a half marathon. I went to a running store that fit me for Asics and I didn't care for them. I heard many people talk about Nike Free shoes and decided to try them out. I absolutely loved them and feel like I'm running on air. I have a tendency to drag my feet a little when I run so the lighter the shoe the better (otherwise I trip often). I did buy a full size larger than what I would buy for everyday shoes. Typically I only go a half size bigger in running shoes but knew that these were more fitted than most shoes. I would not recommend these shoes for aerobic fitness classes, but they are fine for lifting and obviously running.

I owned the 3.0 and they ran a little small so I took a chance and listened to the reviews for these and I am so glad that I ordered half a size larger. I admit that I am in no way a gym rat! I got these mainly for street wear (they super cute with black skinny jeans or cuffed jeans) but I think that I actually will wear these when I do workout. In fact, I saw a couple female trainers sporting them so this pair gives dual purpose for me!

I love them! I ordered half a size up after reading others' suggestions and they fit great. They are very lightweight. They feel great when sprinting, but I wear them out casually as well.

I love these shoes! They have completely changed the way I exercise. They are so light and yet supportive at the same time. These shoes came highly recommended. Everyone told me to order a full size larger than I normally wear. I was really skeptical but I took their advice. I am extremely happy that I did that. I normally wear a 7.5 and I bought 8.5. I went and tried on an 8 at a store and they were too small in the toes. So I would definitely recommend ordering a full size larger. You won't regret ordering these shoes.

These are wonderfully comfortable shoes. These Nikes feel like you are wearing socks, they hug your feet. I forget to take them off at home. They are initially a bit snug and short but I feel like the fit is intentional from Nike. I like the jolt color and bought the two pair in this color. It's like being barefoot but not! Buy them!

Go one size bigger at least, more if you have wider foot. Otherwise these are stylish and practical too.

Great running shoes. I usually wear a 6.5 so I decided to go a half size up and they fit perfectly!

I love these shoes. They are very light and allow my feet to breathe. They are comfortable and find myself grabbing these for style and comfort before all my other tennis shoes. The colors, although shades of gray, are vibrant and bold. The purple adds a great accent without being too over powerful.

Have gotten every new generation free run. Have loved this shoe. Have never had any injuries while running in these until this last pair. Don't know for sure if it is related but have had foot pain and swelling since my first run in the 5.

Unreal comfortable running/gym/training shoe! Sizing runs small! I am usually a 6.5 in Nikes (6 in all other shoes). I had to go with a 7.

This is my first pair of Nikes and I am pretty content. The are super cute and comfortable. I wear them for work/running errands, though I would not recommend them for heavy running or working out. The shoes themselves are a bit flimsy, but the soles are supportive enough and do not cause any discomfort. I would also recommend going up half a size, especially if you have wider feet.

These shoes are great, I'm on my 4th pair! I will say they absolutely run a half size too small, so make sure to go up half size. Besides that, they set extremely comfortable and lightweight.

I am very pleased with this pair of Nike Free shoes I ordered from Zappos. I sometimes wear 8 1/2 in athletic shoes , but , I know in Nikes I wear a 9 . I have 3 other pairs of Nike Frees ...all worn as long as I can . These are great shoes to travel with because they are so lightweight!

I bought these shoes because I wanted more cushioning than minimalist shoes, but I also wanted even cushioning on the front and the back of the shoes. These definitely fit the bill. I can still run on my toes like you do in minimalist shoes, and they felt very supportive.

I love how light these shoes are. I put them on and didn't take them off all day. Look perfect with yoga pants! They run about 1/2 size small. So take that into account! Favorite gym shoes by far!

I bought these sneakers for my cousin. I returned them for a half size larger because it would be more comfortable. Very happy with how quickly Zappos shipped out a second pair and the return was easy.

Love these sneakers. The most comfy sneakers I've ever owned. The first day I wore them to work, 2 people stopped me to say they liked my sneakers. Just make sure you get a half size bigger than you normally wear.

I love these shoes. My first pair of Nike's are the Nike Free Run 3's. I needed a new pair so I ordered these. I had to exchange for a 8.5 even though my 3's were a size 8. Even my boyfriend ordered the same kind size 11 (but in different color) and also had to exchange for size 11.5. They made these different so the tongue does not move. It's the elastic kind so maybe that made the shoe size change a bit. Tend to feel a bit tight around the entire foot like a glove (the circumference of your foot, the middle region, in other words starting from the arch and do a 360). They're elastic so after a while it conforms to your foot as it stretches comfortably. The Nike Free Runs are my fave running shoes! Just keep in mind the shoe size runs 1/2 smaller so go up 1/2 more you can have them right away. :) I'm 5'6" 150lb typically size 8.

Love my Nike Free Run shoes! This is my second pair. The first pair I got were neon pink and I loved them! Super lightweight and comfy. This time I decided to get the black because dirt won't show up like it did on my pink pair. I was also happy to find these on sale.

Nike Free are my favorite gym shoes, just the right amount of cushioning and support. They are low profile and look good with anything. As others mentioned, you will likely need to order a half size larger (I did, they fit perfectly). When weather permits, I also run outside, and these do not provide enough support for me in that area. If you are a novice runner, I would recommend going with something with more support/cushioning like Nike Air Pegasus. However, if you are more advanced and prefer a more barefoot-like experience, the Free would be a good choice.

I looked for this shoe locally before Christmas and it was sold out everywhere in my size. Zappos came through for me. Good gym shoes!

I am totally amazed at the wonderful and helpful customer service I received and the assurance I was given and updates provided on my purchase during the Christmas Holiday Rush. Zappos.com was the best price, customer service and selection! I'll be back to purchase more.

Great shoe! Perfect for nursing. Gives a lot of support, really comfortable, and looks great.
