Comfortable , great fit, makes noise
I purchased the shoes a month ago and they fit is perfect and they are very comfortable to wear. The only reason for a three star rating is after they are worn for about an hour. A squeaking noise starts coming from the soul of the shoe.... Show more

Good running shoes at a great price
It was time for new shoes and I picked these after doing some research. Shoes were delivered quickly and feel very comfortable wearing them. The only slight negative is that they seem narrow in width. Will see if that effects my ability to wear them for longer periods.... Show more

Good shoes at a nice price
Nicely made running shoes.Order one size up these shoes are not true to size. I wear a 10.5 EEE, I ordered a 11.0 EEE and they fit fine.Great for all day wear or just gym or track. Personally I wear them as a casual shoe for just kicking around.Price point is great. I own shoes that cost twice as much and they are no better than these.I would recommend these to anyone who appreciates quality shoes at a great price.... Show more

Great Shoes and Service
Great shoes! I bought these to wear for working outside everyday. In and out of the truck all day and customer houses installing appliances. Not only are they aesthetically appealing, they’re very comfortable and have strong traction on the sole for completing my everyday tasks. Would recommend these shoes. Also, would recommend Academy; great pricing, customer service and fast shipping!... Show more

Looks Good
Very comfortable and sturdy. I feel like I could do anything to these shoes and they'd still look good. Only downer is that one of mine squeaks when I lift that foot. I can't figure out what's making it squeak.... Show more

My best find of the year!
The Best running shoe I have ever worn! Now, I said this about my Brooks Ghost Running Shoe I bought at Academy last year, so maybe it is just a new shoe, a new fit, or the shiny nickel syndrome, but I LOVE these running shoes. I am a big boy, 260 lbs, and only 5'10" tall. So, when I run, it is testing the limits of the shock absorption of any shoe. I am also knocking on 50 years old, so the back and knees need all the help they can get. These shoes deliver! The first time I walked in them, I had to get used to the very pronounced sole sticking out of the back of the foot. I suspect this is why there is so much cushion effect when running. They are running shoes, not walking shoes! Anyway, the fit is a little snug for size I think, I wear 13's in athletic shoes ... MoreThe Best running shoe I have ever worn!

They seem to be typical Nike quality, so time will tell, but I expect they will last me a little while. I'll try to update the review if I can in the future.... Show more

Not Nikes finest! I wouldn’t buy these again.
I loved my last pair of Nikes so when they started to wear out, I wanted to buy another pair. I haven’t had the squeaking issue with these like so many others have, but the fabric on these shoes came wrinkled and the wrinkles do not come out, no matter what you try. They are also difficult to keep clean and every bit of dirt shows. I’ve never had any other shoes like this. I’m also not impressed with their comfort. Next time, I’ll just buy Tanjuns - they are much better shoes.... Show more

Poor quality
I bought a pair for my grandson this past January. By March the sole of one shoe became detached. I replaced it with another pair because his school requires black shoes, and he prefers black on black. My hope was the first pair was a fluke. It wasn’t. The second pair did the same thing before school ended in May. Gorilla glue did work if that’s any consolation.... Show more

Ruined Nike for me.
These are the absolute worst shoes I have ever spent money on. A month in and they squeaked and the soles were literally falling off the shoe and had to be glued back on repeatedly. My experience with these trash cans has caused Nike to lose me as a customer forever. I won't even buy socks or shoes from them anymore. I'll only be buying ADIDAS or Brooks for my shoes now....

Thanks Academy
These shoes were a back to school gift for my nephew. My sister was in the hospital a month, almost lost her leg. She lives 12 hrs from me and wasnt able to get my nephews usual back to school things. I was worried the shoes wouldn't get tnetr in time for school. As always though, Academy came through for me. His favorite shoes are Nike and he wanted a solid color in a not so common size. I went straight to Academy.com found exactly what he wanted...and on sale. Plus the shoes arrived in just a couple days. I can always depend on Academy. I recommend to anyone. Thank yall so much. You made a young man in N.C having a real hard times day....mine too...
