Cool and supportive
I got these shoes for my husband. He likes to have an assortment of different sneakers and has been a big fan of these Waffle Ones. I got his typical size 13 and they fit well. He likes most how supportive the shoes are and how nice the insole feels while still looking like a cool and modern sneaker. He has worn the shoes all day long and on very long walks and they still feel comfortable. These shoes have a unique heel design that makes them feel edgy but it is not over the top. The black color is classic and looks great with anything. The shoes have held up well and are of the quality I expect of Nike.... Show more

Finally made the move to Waffle One!
Love these shoes! I always thought they were stylish and retro looking. The fit is spot on but they may run slightly big because of the mesh toe but I would stick to your size if considering. I wish the summit white suede part was a bit more white and that the Men's black pair had a white swoosh, like the Women's. Other than that, they are very comfortable. You can't go wrong with these so I'm looking forward to designing my own pair soon!... Show more

Great everyday sneaker.
When I saw these I was immediately drawn to them. I love the transparent mesh panels, thought it was a really cool idea, and they're incredibly breathable because of it. They're definitely more of a casual wear as opposed to a trainer or running shoe. Aesthetically they're extremely pleasing to the eye, the colors, the material, and comfort are all well done. Construction has been fantastic so far. I wear a size 15, the only issue I have with them, is easily fixable, but the strings are way too short. The tongue also gets a little awkward. At the end of the day, great shoes, great comfort.... Show more

Nice take on an old silhouette
First thing’s first – The silhouettes are clean and I actually like the aesthetic on these. They have key design hits like the sacai waffle (multi-sole heel counter) and a super breathable mesh upper. I am an absolute sucker for the black-out colorway with the pop of orange (my personal favorite color). Waffle outsole provide some very solid traction. Just wearing them around the neighborhood, they give similar traction to hiking sneakers, providing stability on uneven terrain. The toe box front and high heel pad appear to be a premium suede material and feel great to the touch.When putting on the shoes, the fit is very true to size. I tend to wear shoes a half size up because I have wider feet – but they didn’t pinch in my feet at all (probably due to the mesh ...

I tend to wear shoes a half size up because I have wider feet – but they didn’t pinch in my feet at all (probably due to the mesh upper). The asymmetrical tongue is also really intriguing. I realized the notch along the top is in perfect alignment with your shin as your foot is back. Nice feature. I also tend to be a bit of a pronator (I step a little awkwardly down into the outer portion of my foot, which makes some of the squishier shoes less comfortable over prolonged periods of being on my feet) – after wearing these and walking around for a while, they were actually fairly comfortable and grew on me the more I wore them.Overall, these are a great looking pair of shoes that may be a nice budget option for those who want the style of sacai’s without the pricetag.Now we get to the downsides.. the midsoles are very stiff. I read the descriptions and they were described as “super bouncy…” Nope. Some people like a stiffer midsole, some people don’t. This one is for those who do.The tongue, although a nice shape, is a little flimsier than other lifestyle/running shoes, (similar to that of the Nike React Element 87’s)… when putting on the shoes they slipped down the length of the shoe, making it a little cumbersome to pull back out. (make sure you’re holding on to the tongue as you put on the shoes, these are definitely not slip ons.... Show more

Perfect Shoes
I love these shoes. They are perfect in all categories other than the fact they run a bit too long. I’ve seen reviews saying they are true to size but I have been wearing a size 12 in Nikes for over a decade and every Nike shoe has fit perfectly other than the length of this one so I recommend downsizing an entire size. Other than that they are perfect.... Show more

Pleasantly surprised!
Pleasantly surprised!Honestly these aren’t something that I normally would have bought myself because of the mesh but it’s just enough of a unique feature that is actually quite functional. I ended up loving these so much more than I had expected. They’re comfortable & reliable when I have to be on my feet for a long time. Their fashionable as well and they match everything. The black suede is a very nice touch. I have recommended these to a few of my friends already!... Show more

SO comfy and breathable!
Wow! These shoes are so comfortable! I own many other pairs of Nike athletic shoes, but these ones are easily now my favorite! I have worn them to all day walking events (to the home show, an amusement park, and the zoo) and they held up really well. Not only did my feet NOT hurt those days, but I also did not have any aches the next day. I love the breathable design of these shoes - which will certainly come in handy during the summer months as I chase my toddler around. The style is very sleek and trendy. I love the textures of the different materials. It adds an extra dimension that you usually don't see on athletic shoes. I would say my favorite part of the Nike Waffle One shoes is the breathable design. I don't have to worry about my feet overheating or ... MoreWow! These shoes are so comfortable!

The only thing that I would change in the design would be to remove the style name on the inner part of the shoe. I am sure most people won't notice it, but I thought it was a weird addition to have. All in all, I highly highly recommend these shoes! Especially if you need something comfortable and breathable to chase after your kiddos in. Great job Nike!... Show more

Super comfortable, durable sneakers!
My husband absolutely loves these sneakers. He goes through sneakers really quickly because he is on his feet all day for his job but these have held up so well. They are super breathable, but have enough structure to support him and remain comfortable even through a 12 hour shift (and then to the driving range after that!). The color and design are really nice as well. They are stylish, but neutral enough that you can wear them with pretty much anything. They go from day to date night really easily. My husband is really picky about shoes and wears them out quickly but these continue to hold up and remain his number one choice.... Show more

These go with everything
I bought these shoes to use for work (I’m an MRI tech in a hospital) and they look great with all my scrubs. But, I also find myself wanting to wear them outside of work because they look great with everything. There is so much detail and I love the side mesh that lets your foot breathe. The color of your socks are easy to see through the shoes, so if you’re wearing crazy sock it may clash with the shoe. But typical black and white socks look perfect. These shoes are secure, comfortable and very nice looking. Honestly some of my favorite pair of Nike shoes I’ve ever bought. If you were looking for a comfortable shoe that you can wear with just about anything, these are the ones for you. I might have to snag myself a second pair 👀... Show more

very low arch - little arch support
Love the colors, the materials, the retro look, and mostly like the fit. HOWEVER the arch is much lower than in all my other Nike running shoes, which puts extra pressure on my heel. Also I can feel the hard plastic external heel cup pressing a little on the sides of my heels, though if there were more arch I bet it wouldn't be an issue.The insoles don't seem to be removable or I'd consider swapping them for something with a more typical arch.If you have low arches you'll probably like this shoe a lot. If you have medium to high arches you'll find the fit wanting.... Show more
