I wear a size 17... these shoes fit well and hold up well. Some shoes this large want to tear around the ball of my feet. These aren't showing any sign of that happening.
Pros: lightweight, runs true to size, durable, comfortable, good cushioning, breathable
Cons: poor arch support

I waited all week for this baby to come in the mail and when it finally did I wore those bad boys to school the next day.
They are very comfortable and stylish, there is ONE BAD thing about these shoes and that is; when you don't tie the laces tight, your 4th toe can start to blister
Pros: good traction, lightweight, comfortable, good cushioning, breathable
Cons: runs narrow, poor arch support, runs small, non-durable

The colors are reversed in this shoe (darker blue tones are in front and lighter tones in back). It does not match what was shown in catalog or online.
Cons: runs large, not as shown

They were a bit snug at first (size 14) AND felt like they were pronating my feet, however once I wore them.. wow. Best trainers I've ever owned. Again, they have a really tight fit at first but ultimately, they're very sturdy, stable, and light weight. Great shoe that I highly recommend for the gym and cardio machines. Haven't run in them yet or done anything agility-related, but I'm going to give it a go soon.
Pros: good traction, lightweight, high performance, runs true to size, good arch support

The biggest problem I've faced and I can almost predict the majority of people will face (I'm a medium width male size 10; pretty average) is the extreme tightness around the throat line and toe cap (basically the area of above and around the ball of the foot). It feels like i have rock climbing shoes on before lacing and after lacing it feels like I've put on toddler shoes. My toes have a lot of room to wiggle around in so it's not a smaller fit. The width of this shoe is extremely narrow. Do not make the mistake I made and trust the reviews. Test these out before you decide to keep them.
Pros: good traction, breathable
Cons: runs narrow

This shoe blow my mind! It looks great but what really surprised me was how light it was on your feet yet insanely supportive! I find this shoe keeps my foot in a really balanced position whether im running, squatting or even just wearing it as a day to day casual shoe. I'm a massive fan and will definitely buy this exact shoe again!
Pros: good traction, high performance, lightweight, runs true to size, comfortable, breathable

Super Stylish, but Very Narrow Construction

When I opened the box, it was like Christmas morning!! The shoes are amazing...to look at. I put them on, and immediately felt the life being choked out of my foot. The laces have a funky weaving that puts fails to distribute pressure evenly across the top of the foot, and the shoes are extrememly narrow for what Nike usually puts out. I tried to work out in the shoes, but they were way to uncomfortable. Sending them back, unfortunately.
Pros: lightweight, breathable
Cons: runs narrow

Like the box says - order a size bigger because the fit is narrow. I wear a size 16 shoe and ordered these in 17 and they fit perfectly. Nike comes up big finally for a nice pair of big shoes.
Pros: high performance, lightweight, durable, comfortable, breathable

A good product overall. Very lightweight it still provides adequate support. I ordered one size larger than my normal and it still seemed a little tight in the width.

I ordered these shoes from Aust' and allowed for a half size larger than my normal shoe size. Even having done so, they are still way too snug and I clearly should have ordered a 9.5 instead of 8.5. I'm using them (uncomfortably) in the hope that they will stretch somewhat and become useable.
