I am a runner and love these light weight shoes. They make me feel like I can run faster and they are extremely comfortable even for just walking around. Highly recommend them!

I swore I would give up Nikes after I started long distance running. Love my Newtons & New Balances, but on a hunch, I decided to try the Flex RN. Holy comfort!! LOVE THESE! I feel like I am running on marsh mellows. True to size (I am a 7, but buy 7 1/2 for toe room) & true to width for my wide feet. I am very happy with these & plan to run my 2nd marathon in these!

Great shoe, a little narrow. Get half a size bigger than you would usually wear.

I've been averaging about 15-20 miles a week for about 16 years, so I've been through my fair share of running shoes. I usually run in Asics, but their last rendition of the Cumulus was so bad that I decided to try out Nikes again. This shoe isn't terrible - it is a minimalist shoe so there isn't much cushioning as expected, and it is probably best for flat road runs. Most running shoes made for runners have cushioning in the midsole, but this shoe oddly has lots of cushioning in the heel (heel strike = bad) and really nothing in the midsole. Functionally mediocre, but very stylish.

Nice shoe. Runs small. It's the same size as the size 8.5. Marked wrong?

Runs very small! I measure a 7 1/2 but always buy size 8 in Nike and these size 8 are way too small.

I never wear tennis shoes because I can never find a comfortable pair. I love these! Very comfortable,not bulky, and beautiful colors. I like everything about this shoe.

A great, versatile shoe for a range of activities. No need to worry about the light color- it washes well (be sure to air dry). Breathable and lots of comfort while working out. Speedy shipping and a great shoe- thanks, Zappos!

I went to the shoes store and I found this one there. It was 85$ excluding tax so I didn't buy. I came home and searched at this website and I saw the same one. I ordered the shoes immediately and it came very fast. I like this shoes style and I feel comfortable as it's soft! This review provided is only my personal thinking and feeling. :-) Thanks.

My 12-year old daughter loves these shoes. I have bought her several pairs of running shoes (that she never wore) because all she wanted to wear was Converse, and she needed more support due to knee surgery. Based on reviews, I ordered a half size up as I normally would for running shoes, but she needed a full size larger. They're pretty lightweight, although, since she just got them, I can't say how they will hold up. But, she loves them and she's wearing them, so I gave them five stars.

Overall, I like the shoe. The gray color is neutral and a feminine color. I found them to be comfortable from the first wear generally albeit they did feel more narrow than other Nike shoes I've owned. I like it because it feels like it's keeping my foot snug.
Unfortunately, I should have read the other reviews and sized up. They DO run small in the toe/length and I WISHED I'd sized up a half size. Sadly, I didn't quite feel/figure that out until I'd worn them outside and now I feel "stuck" with them. Just be forewarned you may want to try two sizes depending on the activity during which you'll be wearing them.

It runs half size smaller than "Common Nike Shoes", which means a full size smaller comparing with other brand. Glad I tried in the store before buying them. It's very light-weighted and flexible.

This shoe fit true to size for me; I have a narrow foot, and the Flex Run are (thankfully) more narrow than some other Nike shoes (for example, the Free---this year's and last year's Free are too wide for me; I'm still wearing my Free from year before last, when they fit more narrow.) The arch support is, as all Nikes are for me, very good. So, for me, the fit is great; for a person with wider feet, they would probably not be a good fit. I only gave them 4 stars, because, while very comfortable, they don't have as much padding as the Free (and are therefore $85 instead of $100.) I wish they had more padding, but the excellent fit for my narrow feet makes up for that. I purchased the white and am now buying them in black, so I'm set for summer and fall.

Cute shoe. I always size up a half size for Nike and these are still way too small and very narrow. Returning them.

I bought these for my wife 3 years ago and she still wears them around today. Excellent shoe especially considering the low price.

LOVE THEM. If you have foot sensitivities as in you cant stand rubbing and on different parts of your foot, this is the shoe for you. Went through 3 returns from different brands and styles and this is the one. TRY IT!

For tennis shoes, I usually wear either an 8.5 or a 9. I read the reviews from previous buyers indicating ?that they run a little small, so I ordered the 9 and they fit perfect! They are one of the most comfortable shoes that I have ever purchased! I am even considering buying another pair in a different color.

The slight negative heel really helps my posture. I had to loosen the laces at the top which I don’t normally have to do but it corrected the fit and made them super comfortable. I love the slight mint color!

Nikes are the best athletic shoes in my opinion for those of us with long, narrower feet. They manage to look sleek despite the larger size (I wear an 11.). My go-to athletic shoe company.

These are a great sneaker for a variety of activities. They are so light but have plenty of support. They are not completely white, they are more like an ice white. Love them. They are my go to sneaker for comfort.
