Great shoes to workout in or just casual everyday wearing.

I took the recommendation of others and ordered a half size big (11 instead of 10.5). Glad I did because they fit really snug. Might have even experimented with an 11.5 but didn't want to deal with the hassle of returning/exchanging. Really happy with the look and feel. Extremely comfortable for casual sneakers.

I wear a 9.5 in normal NB shoes. This model fits tighter. I recommend a half size larger for regular width feet.

The reason why I gave 4 stars is only because my son complained it is a bit tight on his toes, which is unusual - it is his number and it feels ok all over, except on his toes. Given it is not the first one he has, I thought it is prudent to get a size larger, or half.

Great on the treadmill, so that is the only reason I'm going 4 stars. Wait till the snow melts here in Maine (June 1st?) and we can judge better. Love NB.

The fresh foam is very comfortable, but the soles don't feel like they fit my feet perfectly. I have wide feet and i ordered wide, but i still had to size up a whole size

Smaller in the toe box than the other NB shoes of the same size. I had to return this style.

I purchased these for my son as a birthday present, i did have to return them though and go up a half size as they run a little small. Overall a great shoe!

Sharp looking shoe. Have bought NB 8.5 2E before at a perfect fit. These are slightly tighter than those

Picture is a little lighter color than it actually is. Runs small. Good look and feel, but I think the price is too high for what it is.

Shoe runs a little small for me and could be a little wider in toe box. Shoe is a little tight to slip on as well.

I like the styling and light weight. However, I continue to be perplexed on the variance in sizing from one style to the next by NB. 13 in these seem to be perfect. 13 in another very similar fresh foam sneaker is too big? Then conversely I have a 12 that works in the 997s? I am typically a 12 in all other brands.

Love these. Always get "Where did you get those shoes!" comments. Hard to get on as they are a slip-on, so I opened one side of the tongue and it's much easier. Purchased regular size and it fits perfectly, once you get them on. Am wanting the black floral now.

LOVE the shoe! Many compliments - but had a hard time putting them on. I finally snipped the seam on one side of the tongue and it's much easier to get on. Would really love a pair in black!

Pretty cute. Comfy. Like wearing a sock? Takes some getting used to getting on a show they feel. Laces are useful to make the shoe feel more secure.

The sneakers fit well and give good support but they are not a nice color. I have the Hawaiian print pair and those are gorgeous but this pink is kind of funny looking and I do not really like it. Unfortunately the sneakers work well for my lower back so I will be keeping them. Not a nice color. I do like fuchsia but these are funny looking. If you need the support, I would go ahead and get them.

When I opened the show box I knew I would immediately love this shoe! It’s unfortunate they were way too small. I will be buying another size up and trying again.

Cute shoe, just didn't feel right for my foot. I thought of exchanging for a 1/2 size bigger, but realized I wasn't "in love" with the shoe.

I must not have looked carefully as I did not realize there was a flamingo on the shoe. I thought I saw only pretty leaves and flowers. I returned this pair, but found lots of others with great designs

These are super fun shoes. The Hawaiian print is awesome and unique. However they do run about a half a size too small in my opinion. I had to exchange for a 9 but I usually wear a 8.5. The shoe itself is comfortable and extremely lightweight.

I got these shoes for casual wear, they look great with workout clothes and jeans. They took a few days to break in but I wouldn’t do more than walking in them.

Nice running shoe. Good cushion in the heal. Would like more cushion in the pad of my foot. I have a wide foot so went up a size. With socks, shoes run smaller to size.
