Customer Reviews Nike Orive NM

I needed a "getting around" sneaker and this fits the bill. Had no arch support but got the superfeet insoles which gave me the arch support I needed. Have since worn them overnight (I work a 12 hour night shift as a nurse) and these were comfortable. Tip: order 1/2 to full size larger since you need to put insoles and the material does not stretch.

Too narrow

Great looking shoe but definitely smaller than other Nikes. I also got a blister wearing them to the gym on my heel, but they're really cute!

Make sure to order at least half a size larger than normal. I normally wear a size 9 but had to return them and exchange for a size 9 1/2 which then worked for me with this pair and style.

Suffice it to say, these run small. Initially, I bought these in a size 8 (I fluctuate between 7.5-8). I wore them on an overnight shift (news, so a good bit of sitting & minimal walking) & within 4 hours, my feet were terribly achy & had to put band-aids on my heels. I exchanged them for an 8.5 and they are like an entirely different shoe. I like the ribbed sole & they are firm, but comfortable.

Order a half size up if you have wide feet. They were a bit stiff when I first wore them for the first 2 weeks. I got blisters on my heels trying to break them in as the fabric is a lot stiffer than normal Nikes...it may be because the price point on this is lower than the typical Nike shoes. Other than that, looks wise it's great...comfortableness I would have to give it a 3 stars.

I wanted to love it so much and I really wanted the all black, but all they had was black with white trim, so I settled. I am not into the sneaker look but I needed a good pair for my New York trip. I read that it runs small and narrow, so I went half a size up to 5 1/2. It was still too tight. I tried it on at home, but it felt like my feet was being squeezed. I thought of getting size 6, but it still won't change the fact that it's just a narrow shoes. I don't want to look like a duck, so I unfortunately have to send these back.

I love these. They look a lot like the Nike frees...for a lot less. I do wish I had gone up at least a half size from my normal size, but they aren't too uncomfortable.

These are really cute. I like that they are pretty simple. However, they are so tight on my feet, even though I ordered a half size up!!!

Very comfy basic shoe, good flatter bottomed shoe for weightlifting, which is what I wanted! Would wear a different sneaker for cardio or running. As some other reviews said it does rub a little on the heel, they are very low cut compared to all my other sneakers. Just need to make sure your socks don't slide down on the heel and they're fine. Usually wear a 7.5 in nike and these are true to that size.

Narrow & rubbed my heel a bit but I'm hoping I can break them in. I loosened the laces more so hopefully that will help. As far as sizing, I'm usually an 8.5 in shoes but in Nike women's I'm an 8.

I really like the look of these shoes. I bought them for casual wear, not running. Unfortunately they give me blisters on the back of my heels. Hoping the problem goes away once they are broken in. Band-Aids help significantly for now. I also had to return the first pair I bought because they ran small. I reliably wear a size 8 but had to size up to 8½ in these.

Really cute and not too boxy like sneakers can be. narrow. I went up a half size for these (I know they'll stretch with time, though)!

Great shoes! Not only are they practical for walking long distances, they go with everything too! Had to half a size up. I'm usually a perfect 9.5 but it was a bit snug so I had to get a 10. Not a huge deal, just make sure to try them on in the house before using them.

I really like the way these shoes look but they do run a little too small. I ordered 5.5 in Nike before and these seem a bit too tight. Also the leather back is a little stiff and it took me a few days to break them in. I decided to keep them anyway and hope they loosen up. Overall I do like them.

I like the style of the shoe. I was excited that reviewers said they run narrow because I have a narrow foot. I ordered a half size up to allow for length. However, the shoe is too short and too narrow. Therefore, I am returning the shoe. Zappos will notify me when a size larger is available. I think it will be comfortable if I can get the right size. I suggest you order a whole size up.

These were cute, but not comfy to me at all! I went up a half size (normally a 7, got 7.5), they were tight, and stiff, and rubbed my ankle and didn't give well. I thought they were going to be really light and comfy like a pair of Nike's my daughter has that look similar...NOPE. My daughter thought they were cute, her size is a little smaller than me, and she didn't want them, she also said they weren't comfy. Sad, b/c they looked cute, and I was really looking forward to wearing them.

Nice looking shoe but it runs narrower than other Nikes I have owned. I ordered the same size I have always taken in Nikes. I could have worn these but they felt too narrow and I was afraid they would not feel better after a break-in period. I have never had problems in the past with Nikes feeling comfortable from the first day.

Disappointed that they were so uncomfortable. They felt like really cheap sneakers, not worth the $50 I paid for them.

Definitely smaller than normal Nikes. I would go up half a size. Returning for a new size.

The were not flattering and too tight, never had that problem with sneaker

The cutting of the shoe is very narrow. I'm normally a size 8 in regular shoes and went up a full size to a 9 for these shoes and they are still a snug fit. If you have wide feet, I definitely don't recommend getting these shoes. The style of it is very slim and pretty though.

Love these sneakers. Like other reviewers, I felt this shoe was way smaller than normal sizing. I ended up exchanging these twice to get the perfect fit. In the end, the size that fit best was 1.5 sizes larger than my normal size. Great, comfy, light shoe. Zappos customer service was great, as usual.

cute but super narrow

felt a little stiff and small but looked good
