They fit true to size! I did have to break them in for one day but after one day they were very comfy. The material is breathable which is great for me because my feet sweat terrible so it helped with that! Also they shipped really fast so that was an added bonus to the super cute shoes!!

Not bad for $47. I love the way they look. A tad tight but after their a little worn they’ll be perfect.

I love my shoes. They are very comfortable and great for activities such as running errands. I have not tried running in them or anything like that but they are great. I would buy another pair if I wasn't broke.

This shoe is the most comfortable shoes I have owned in my life. They are super light and comfortable and really good for a run.

I love that Nike now makes wide shoes!
These are a good supportive shoe. There isn't a lot of crazy, unnecessary straps or design aspects on this shoe which works great for me. Those additions always seem to cause discomfort in shoes due to my bunions. The toe box is nice and wide (I ordered a wide) so no rubbing anywhere. The sole of the shoe is a little hard. I would have preferred a little more cushioning. I bought these for work (server) and at the end of a 5-7 hour shift, my feet are sore. That being said, they are sturdy and have good arch support. I'll probably get some softer insoles for work to wear with these shoes.
I'd also recommend:

The shoe was very lightweight and provided moderate arch support. Loved the all black color scheme.

I'm picky about running around town shoes because of so many funky styles out there. I like these very cute and traditional shoes for running around town, jogging, and being active. I have not tried them for a run but their a great versatile athletic shoe and cute.

These are great shoes for the price, and stylish. But they are very narrow. I have never had a problem with normal-width shoes and even consider myself to have fairly narrow feet, but in order for these shoes to fit comfortably I have to keep the laces on the loosest possible tie, with gaps between the tongue and the side walls of the shoes. I often find it difficult to get these shoes on because of the narrowness. But they are functional and fine when on.

Brilliant trainer. Always buy this model. Pleased with support. Colour not my favourite but doesn’t impact me. Fantastic price.

The shoes are a little odd. I am typically a size 8 in Nike shoes, which is what I purchased, but these feel like a size 7 3/4 (if that makes sense); not quite a size 8, but an 8 1/2 would definitely be too big. The color is less of a gray and more of a silver, and is VERY reflective. Great for running at night if you’re into that. Good arch support so far. Very breathable, so good for hot summer days.
Overall, I absolutely would buy another pair. But I would go for a darker color just to make sure dirt doesn’t show.

These are super cute and I think I will order them again. I have worn Nikes for a while and have very consistently worn a 9 for casual and 9.5 for running. I ordered these in both 9 and 9.5, they fit exactly the same, and both were tight. Disappointed about the weird sizing from Nike, but I think I like them enough to order up (every girl's dream to wear a bigger size shoe!)
Great service from Zappos as usual!

So far these shoes seem like a good fit; I got the wide size, so they were roomy in the toe box as I'd hoped. They are comfortable, though not super cushioned. They look nice. For the price, they're pretty much what I expected.

I ordered the 9B/M after I returned the 8.5. Returns process was super easy and my replacement size was cheaper. They fit well, feel supportive enough for everyday use.
