When I purchased these shoes, the fit felt amazing in the store. I walked up and down the aisle, and things felt in place. They were a bit high in my price range, but I felt that quality would compensate for the extra money I was investing. I took the shoes out for my first run just two hours ago. I usually run up to, and sometimes exceeding 10 miles depending on how I feel around that last mile. Somewhere during the second mile, the shoes became and instant nightmare. I felt from the beginning that my stride was a bit different, but I pushed along, and the comfort level I felt in the store was non-existant from then on. I trudged on for another 4 miles hoping that it was just in my head and that I needed to just get acclimated with the shoes. It was just worse and worse. I was exerting much more energy for half the output. My Nike+ sensor reflected those numbers into actual proof that I was struggling. 10 miles? I couldn’t even finish. I couldn’t go on after 5.85 miles, FAR less than my average goal. The discomfort was that unnerving. These shoes aren’t just a blow to my time, but also to my morale. I’m hoping I can return them, otherwise, I don’t have another pair of shoes I can wear for a long time because those aren’t going on my feet ever again and I can’t afford another pair. Even the drive home was uncomfortable. I felt like I was wearing a pair of frying pans. I’d recommend these to the casual runner. Scratch that…the park dog-walker. Nothing fast-paced. ~StevenMC19

Got these for my birthday yesterday. I wore them to a pickup softball game. After only 2 hours they broke in really nicely and felt like I had been wearing them for years!! So comfortable and really nice looking (I got the black and white ones). I would recommend this sneaker to anybody!! ~TMichaud

I am a womens size 7.5 and typically buy my Nike Free shoes in the womens dept. I noticed this youth shoe and tried to look up conversion for the size as I specifically needed this color. I was able to fit into a youth 6.5 and a 7. I bought both pairs as the price was so much less expensive buying these in youth rather than adult womens. They are comfortable and they look great! I have had more compliments than any $100+ shoe I own. I can wear them to the gym, to Disneyland walking all day and still feel like I look good and am comfortable. These shoes are light weight. The only problem is now my son is embarrised becasue his friends all have the same shoes as his mom.. ~Tania
