I've always had great luck with Nike, and these shoes are continuing that streak. I had a pair of Avia shoes that I picked up at a really low price recently (trying to be a bargain shopper), but had noticed quite a bit of shin discomfort running with them. I bought the air alvord VI two nights ago, and my shin pain has substantially decreased already. Great arch support and cushioning, and the mesh keeps my feet cool through the entire workout. I got the blue/gray/granite style - very nice...feminine but not "girly". I normally wear a 7, bought a 7.5 - so I agree that you may need to go up a half size.

Small! I normally wear a 10 in most shoes, but with Nike, I usually wear an 11 - til now! I ordered this shoe in an 11, but when I tried them on, they were too small! I’m going to send them back and order an 11 1/2. They also feel a little tight, but when I walked in them, it was like walking on air! I think when I get the correct size, I will be very happy with the shoe. I agree with other reviews, just order at least 1/2 size up if you want these!

These are very comfortable shoes. They have super soft cushioning. Great for people with tender feet! I have to try on 10-15 pairs of shoes to be comfortable every time I want to buy a pair. Needless to say I hate buying shoes! I found these shoes at a local shoe store. I went home and checked out Zappos. I got them for less. With free shipping each way how can you loose? Zappos has the best customer service on the planet! Try them, you\'ll like them!

Very Comfortable Shoe - I only wear Nike sneakers since I've found them to be a good price and very comfortable. I purchased a first pair of these at a sports store and wore them every day. About a month later I checked to see if they were available on Zappos and purchased a second pair immediately. I now alternate the pairs but still wear them every day, if not most of the day, then always on my long walks. No wear in time, immediately comfortable.

nice for the price - You definitely need to order at least 1/2 a size larger, but probably one full size larger is best with sweat socks. I have narrow feet, and they are not too wide for me, so if you have wide feet, they may feel tight. The shoe has good support and is very light which is great. Overall I'm quite happy with them, and especially for the price which I think is very reasonable compared to others.

LOVE this shoe!!1 - I have Barney Rubble feet - so sizing is crazy for me. I usually wear an 8 W. I had to buy a 9.5 W in this shoe to fit my foot. Thank goodness for Zappos' generous return policy. I ordered 3 pair and this one fit like a glove! I totally LOVE this shoe. I walk every day 3 miles and MORE on the weekend.

Took two or three short runs for these to feel like they should have felt right out of the box. Other than that this pair of Nike's is an excellent shoe for the price. Light, flexible, not so much arch support that they are uncomfortable but enough to get me comfortably through a several mile run. Also a great shoe for wearing all day long, as I often do.

My favorite tennis shoes ever! I've had my pair for about 7 months and I still love them as much as the first day I bought them. I can run up and down Camelback mountain with ease (which can't be said for most tennis shoes) and they still feel great running on asphalt. I want to stock up on them so I'll never run out!

I like these shoes. You have to wear them 3-4 times for them to break in. I do run on trails and they feel stable. I usually buy Nike trail running shoes that cost twice as much but these are great for the price...I just may need to replace them sooner. I wish they came in a darker color combo because they will get dirty!!

A great shoe for me - I'm very happy with this shoe. I ordered a half size larger, as I always do with Nike. I love the style of the shoe and how it looks on my foot. It feels supportive, yet it is light weight and comfortable. I was able to put my insert in without removing the inner liner.

High hopes fall flat. These shoes felt small and narrow. No toe room. Didn't bother trying the other shoe on.
