Super light weight shoe. Mike shoes run narrower compared to other brands in general..with that said, this shoe width normal compared to other Nike shoes I have bought in past.

The color I wanted was no longer available in Nike Flex RN 2017, so I ordered the 2018 version. I never had a better fitting shoe than the 2017, and the 2018 version did not disappoint. I can tell no difference in the two. These shoes rock for me

Beware the shoes look black but they’re actually like charcoal grey on the top. Very disappointed I wanted an all black shoe.

I have been using Flex Run series shoes since 2014 and haven't wore anything else since then. I love this series as they are light, comfortable and there no differential (height difference from heel to toe). I have had Flex Run -2014, 2016 and now 2018. So my review is based upon my experience to only these three models. 1. This shoe is little smaller for the same size than it's predecessors. 2. The sole is also not as soft as the previous models that I have used so it's taking longer to break-in. 3. I bought all black color this time and I like the look. Overall I loved the 2014 Flex-Run sole the most. They were the softest I have experienced. Look wise I loved the 2016 version. These shoes are good only if you wear only Flex-Run and your old one are worn out to a point that you can't use them anymore. Otherwise I would say wait for then 2019 version and see which one fits you the best.

The shoes seem to run a bit small. I normally wear a men's 9.5-10. I ordered a size 10 for these shoes, but they feel like a 9.5. The style is great and the cushioning is nice, they just feel a bit tight. I'm contemplating returning them for a size 10.5.

I really like the look and these shoes are super light, but they're considerably smaller than others I wear in the same size, even others from Nike. It felt somewhere between a half and full size too small and was also tight across the toes. Rather than guess at a new size, I'm just returning. It's hard to judge how comfortable they'd actually be if they fit so I hate to give term a poor rating for that, but that's part of the problem with ordering shoes online.

They fit well, just like most Nike running shoes. They are very flexible and breathable. Width is okay, somewhat snug but appropriate.

This sneaker runs about a half size small unless you like your toes touching the front of the sneaker.

Firstly: order this shoe one full size larger—it runs small. Secondly, there is very little support or cushioning. I wouldn’t recommend this shoe for running or long walks. On the other hand, it’s a nice shoe for hanging out or running errands—sort of feels like wearing slippers.

I had to return the pair I ordered in my normal size (14) but when I received the next size larger they were very comfortable. This is my first ever pair of Nike shoes, I have an aversion to wearing prominent trademarks but their last advertising campaign won me over.

The fit was slightly smaller and more narrow than my other Nikes. Not so much that I would return them but more than I have experienced before. Simple fix I redid the laces completely to loosen them up and I am just wearing the heck out of them. Worked a full nine hour shift on my feet and they felt great!!! That arch support is a big upgrade over my Nike Free that I also love!

Runs at least a full size small. After two attempts at normal size and half size larger, gave up on these.

Great looking show. Feels tight on width. I normally wear a size 8, reg width. Wonder if I should go with an 8.5?

A little more minimalist than I had expected, but fits true to size and not too narrow or too wide (my feet are pretty average). Be aware these are more the bootie style with the flexible heel area that you pull on and around your heel. I haven’t been a fan of those in the past but I’m happy with these so far. There is pronounced arch support that runs the entire width of the shoe which is fine for me but might not be for some. Wish they had a little more cushioning in the forefoot but otherwise the footbed is comfortable and supportive. I’ll mostly use these for light running and casual use so for that they are decent if a little pricey.

For some reason size 11 feels narrower and my toes kind of feels pushing forward. Support seems thin at the tip. Size 11 for Nike used to be ok for me. This time it feels different. I still getting used to it. Maybe it would be fine after a few runs ??

In the past year all the Nike running shoes I've purchased have had a narrow front making it feel very uncomfortable for the toes. Other areas of the shoes are very comfortable such as arch support, lightness, and step bounce. I love the fact that they're breathable and keep your feet dry. I usually order a half size larger, but still feel discomfort in the toes area. I'm 260 pounds and the support usually holds up for around 2 - 3 months which is good for shoes with out air pockets, but I'll be going back to ones with air in them which provide better support.
