Customer Reviews Nike Free Trainer V8

Noticed that this shoe is very uncomfortable if you need to stand for any length of time. They are light though and have a nice look to them.

Loved the shoe initially and they were very comfortable, however needed to return them after wearing them to an event where I stood for a couple hours. My feet were killing me after standing in them.

Fits half size smaller and narrower due to new design with tongue attached to insides of shoe.

Since the new design with tongue attached to the inside of the shoe sides. The shoe is more difficult to put on. Very tight at first and very little room on either side and also length. Not the same as past Nike shoe design.

Why I thought I'd like this wonky look I can't tell you. Believe me, they look irl much worse than in that photo.

These were true to size for my 10 year old in length but very tight across the top of his foot. They are so tight that he will not wear them. We love Nike shoes but these were way too narrow and tight across the middle top of the foot.

These shoes lack a normal, separated tongue since they have a bootie construction which makes the opening very narrow and hard to put on. Someone else mentioned that they use a shoe horn and I can confirm that. You'll definitely want to get a shoe horn to put these shoes on unless you want to deform their heel counter. Compared to other shoes I own, the upper part is thick and robust and it seems like it can take some abuse without your toes tearing a hole on them (unlike the Nike Roshe One). As for comfort, they might seem a bit tight at first but after a couple of wears they are very comfortable, like the Free RNs. They feel true to size. I wear 9 in adidas which IMO have the most standard sizes , but after reading some reviews here I ordered half a size up (went from 9 to 9.5) and I returned the larger size because I kept on sliding out of them as I waked.

The opening is fixed, and I could not fit my foot through to try on the shoe.

Do not get these shoes. These are the worst shoes I have ever owned. See how instead of just one hole for the lace to go through at the top of the shoe there are actually a ton of them? The very first time I tied these, the first hole ripped straight through. Since then, I have had to readjust my laces at least four times because at the slightest introduction of pressure on the plastic it rips clean through. These shoes are a waste of money. From the first wear, they were unusable. 1 star is too many.

I've worn 11's in Nikes my entire life but I've never had a worse fitting shoe. Wore them once and never will again, but now I'm out $90 since the return policy doesn't allow returns after wearing
