20 Best Nike Shoes For Walking (2023 Updated)

This boot feels a little more snug than the Superfly 6 (didn’t get a chance to wear the 7). They’re not uncomfortable, but definitely don’t feel as sock-like as the Superfly 6 and 5. In terms of thickness, it reminds me of the Vapor 11’s, but it feels more plastic-y than the prior versions of the Superfly that I’ve owned.

Stud pattern remains aggressive and traction is great, and I really like that they connected the front and back parts of the sole plate rather than keep it split like the Superly 6 and 7 — it just feels a little more supportive.

Touch feels good, but the ball flies off the foot much like it did on the Vapor 11, which I love and that I feel the Superfly 6 missed. The biggest knock on this would be the break-in period. I feel like the Superly 6 and 5 were playable right out of the box (skipped Superfly 7), but that’s not the case for the 8’s.

First game out, these dug into my heels and gave me blisters behind my ankles (used band aids for the second game and that solved that issue), but after two full games in these, they still feel stiff.

Thus, comfort is good, as long as you like a snug fit and take precautions for your ankles. Second knock — a totally minor one — is that the plastic cover on the end of the shoelaces came off one end when I was untying my shoe.

Nike won’t offer lace replacements, so heads up on that.

I have been wearing Superrep for several years now and always keep several pairs in rotation. These sneakers are exactly what I need – comfort- cushioning and creative colors!! I box, do HIIT classes and run.

The cushioning component is critical to me and these sneakers deliver! I tried on many other sneakers that are specifically for just running but retuned all of them because nothing compares to this sneaker.

I have tried in the new model but I have to say prefer this generation. These went right into my “inventory “of Superreps in my closet. The fit of this color is exact- I’m a 9 and these are perfect (the black ones run smaller).

I’ve been wearing Nike air max since their inception ( I do miss the airmax 720) so I know what works best for me- these are a 10 star sneaker!.

I been wearing these model Nike shoes the past fours years for tennis. Love them as there is no break-in needed. It fits like a glove to me. But the last few pairs I got from Nike brand new out-of-the-box squeaks.

They normally squeaks after I worn them out after a while but not brand new out of the box. I only use them for tennis. I been buying them direct from Nike site for few years now. I’ll keep buying them as they are Comfortable and has good support for my feet.

Hope they last just as long like the past pairs. I usually wear out about four pairs a year playing tennis.

I just bought my first pair of air monarchs and was immediately struck by two things. The first being how comfortable they are. Its like walking on pillows, also the width is perfect for my wide feet.

I was also struck by how quiet these shoes are. I felt li,like, a stealth ninja. I’ve never experienced shoes as quiet or as comfortable as these. I will be going to pick up a second pair, in a different color next payday.

I honestly don’t know if I’ll ever buy another sneaker again. These are just perfect. Thank you Nike, for helping this Army Vets feet. I appreciate you Nike!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!.

I’ve purchased three pairs of these over the last year and a half, and I’m amazed at how comfortable they are. I bought one pair for walking/exercise and two for that “dad sneaker” look with jeans, etc.

They are a bit heavy, so I’ve been looking for other sneakers that are a little lighter for walking and exercise, but I’ve struck out so far and need to fully lean into these sneakers for everything.

I recently went to Disney World, and it rained a lot while we were there. I wore these sneakers every day, and my feet did not get wet at all. Also, I have an old injury in my right big toe that is causing arthritis and limited mobility in that toe, and these shoes have been great – I don’t have as much pain in these shoes as I do in others.

My sister has started a new fitness regime and what better gift to get her than nike air max 270? She was always envious of my pair so I indugled her this birthday, delighted she has worn them every day since.

As a gift i was worried about the fit however they are true to her size very comfortable to walk, run and wear in the gym. Delivery was quick and on time which was good as we live in Dunblane and at times things can take longer to arrive.

Well worth the money and a good sale price too. Happy with my purchase and a happy sister too !!.

These are the best racing shoes I have ever tried. I avoided them for a while. I have a normal volume foot and know that Nike’s tend to be narrow. I also didn’t want to believe the hype and was looking for alternatives.

I tried the Saucony endorphin pro, new balance rc elite 2 and ASICS Metaspeed Sky. I put over 100 miles in all of those before getting the vaporflys. The first time I wore the vaporflys I knew that they were special.

I now have my 5k PR in these shoes and will be using them for all of my racing this year, including 5ks, 10ks, half marathons, and I’ll be running the NYC marathon this year. They are light, bouncy and give you the sense of forward lean and propulsion that none of the competitors can match.

They improve your efficiency by making it easier to hold your goal pace with less perceived effort. The NBs are comfortable but too soft and I can’t feel that same push forward. The sauconys give you a nice roll but are stiffer and not as propulsive.

The ASICS come the closest to the vaporflys but still fall short. The hype is real. The vaporflys are king.

These are remarkable running-specific shoes. Not the greatest value unless you can score these on sale, which I had. Great cushion and breathability. Carbon Fiber plate is well designed; cushion combined with rocker design really helps propel.

I am not as much a fan of the mesh material upper on this compared to the previous version. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that these shoes do not provide the lockdown on the forefoot and security around the ankle that I enjoy compared to the Adios Pro or even prior version of this shoe.

While I like the rocker in this a lot, proper lockdown for me is even more important. If you are in the market for these, be sure to try the Adidas Adios Pro 2. Shoes fit true to size.

If you’re buying this shoe, chances are you’ve heard the controversies surrounding this shoe. From personal experience, I can attest that it feels like cheating wearing these. I haven’t gone for a run yet in these things, but every step I take with these on feels like there’s something spring-boarding me forward.

It’s like there are booster rockets on my feet. Moving forward has never felt so effortless before. They’re also true to size: I usually buy half a size higher but I didn’t need to with these because they would have fit perfectly in my actual size.

I’m not giving these five stars because they do feel a bit unstable. My ankles feel more wobbly in these than another other shoe I’ve worn. But, hey, that could be a good thing what with ankle mobility and all.

Another reason that’s discouraging me from giving these shoes 5 stars is, like you’ve probably heard, there’s a bunch of extra room in the back of the shoe. Whenever I take a step, it low-key feels like my foot will slip right out.

Oh yeah, and they’re comfy as heck.

I bought two pairs of these trainers and have worn both pairs over the past couple of weeks. One pair rubbed my little toes initially, while the other pair were comfortable straight off. However, one of that latter pair has now developed an annoying and embarrassing squeak.

So good shoes, generally comfortable, but will be better if I can get rid of the squeaking.

I come from a competitor brand that have always been comfortable to me but wanted to give Nikes a shot again. These are even more comfortable than my Nike zoom shoes. Cushion and support is great. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and this will really help with days where I need to be on my feet for longer periods of time.

I can’t talk about wear and tear, but comfort is outstanding and they look sharp too.

Bought my first pair of these trainers and within a day or 2 the rim around the edges went all white and squeak of them was just awful!!! Brought them back to the shop and with a fight, I got them exchanged for another pair the same and within the week of wearing them the squeak started again!!! Totally disappointed!!!! Was always a Nike fan but this has put off from buying Nike trainers again!.

Good fit as they seem a bit wider fit, which I need. Good quality and nice soft insole. Might just be my pair but the have squeaked from first wearing. Not the end of the world but a bit annoying. Dropped a star because of this.

I am 190lbs so finding shoes that support well can be a challenge. Only handful of reviews are geared towards heavier users so you can not fully go on ratings. The react midsole and the air pods at the forefoot feel supportive throughout the run.

Some softer mid soles bottom out overtime especially the forefoot so the you don’t get the bounce back like you are supposed to. But these shoes deliver in that end and also are pretty stable as well.

The fit is awesome as well. It feels like the shoes grabs you everywhere the forefoot, mid foot and the ankle without feeling like it is squeezing you. Also the upper is pretty flexible to keep your foot comfortable through your strides.

Not the few issues. The known issue of heel slippage. I did read that once you run a few times the slippage stops. Well, my left foot has stopped slipping but right still keeps slipping. I think it may have reduced or it is just wishful thinking.

I will do few more sessions and see if it improves any further and will update the review. Second issue may be the breathabilty of the uppers. I do mostly indoors so it is not an issue at all but compare to my other running shoes I have I really don’t feel the air passing through the uppers.

From the reviews I have read on the 38, it looks like they may have addressed the issues but will only know when I try them.

Pegasus has been my favorite running shoe for 4 decades. I am an older runner (66). This shoe is not a stability shoe but is nice and light with average cushion. I really like it for running on my cushioned treadmill and for short indoor runs at the YMCA on the indoor track in the winter.

I have another shoe that has more cushion and stability for outdoor runs. It has average to below average wear, which means this is not a high mileage shoe. It would also make a good interval shoe. I recommend it if you run a few miles a day, neutral runner, and don’t need lots of stability.

I’m a pretty serious runner. I don’t run as much as I did 30 or even 20 years ago, but I still want a shoe that 1) fits well, 2) has great cushioning, and 3) is fairly light. 1) The fit on the Pegasus 37 is perfect and the shoe just disappears on my foot (which is the highest praise I can give to any shoe).

2) The cushioning is soft, but not so soft and mushy that you can’t pick up the pace. Unlike some shoes that are soft in the heel and firm in the forefoot (or vice versa), these are consistently soft throughout.

If you hate feeling the road (like a shoe that has lost all of its cushioning) and instead want to feel the shoe, you will love these. 3) It isn’t a “light” shoe, but it is light enough that you can pick up the pace when you want to.

A few other notes: The Pegasus, at its best, was always a “do anything” shoe. From long runs to speedwork to off-road (grass, dirt, or light trails), it could handle any kind of run, and that is true of the Pegasus 37, too.

Furthermore, it can handle any kind of stride, whether you are a heel or midfoot striker. The heel-toe transition very smooth. Lastly, between the React foam and the carbon rubber outsole, this shoe should be extremely durable.

The Pegasus was my favorite running shoe for many years, but recent versions had cushioning that was too thin and firm. The Peg 37 is back to its roots as a soft and relatively light “do anything” trainer.

First, these shoes are super comfortable. They are generous in width which is a plus for me since I have a wider foot. The extra room also keeps my feet from feeling like they are going to burst out of when flexing and climbing.

Shoes can sometimes pinch my feet in certain spots preventing me from getting much wear out of them. These don’t do that at all. I also like how they give me plenty of support and bounce but still allow me to feel the ground.

That is important for me as I like to feel the changing terrain so that I can adjust my footing accordingly. I can definitely wear these shoes out on the trail all day long. The Pegasus Trail 3 Mens Trail Running Shoes are also super stylish.

The color palette is gender neutral yet still fun. These can be worn out on errands and still look good. I also love the string loop on the back for getting the shoe on. It isn’t the usual loop of fabric that can often be hard for me to get my finger inside to use.

I think what I liked most about these shoes is that they are plenty wide yet still supportive. It really helped make the shoes comfortable and practical while out running. If I had to pick one thing I am a little hesitant about it would be the nose of the shoes.

I am not sure that the rubber will stay well adhered to the fabric if it gets wet often or with a lot of use. If you are looking for a stylish yet comfortable shoes that will allow you to run on various surfaces this one is it! I highly recommend these shoes and can’t wait to get some more runs out of them.

I’ve worn various road-focused versions of the Nike Pegasus for more than a decade, and this trail model doesn’t disappoint. I use on both single-track and at the gym, and have found sizing true to other Nikes running shoes.

My one disappointment with the fit is my foot sitting farther forward than I’m used to, which creates extra space between the back of my heel and end of the shoe. My favorite feature is the deep cushion underfoot that creates a very comfortable ride.

Because of the height, I expected to sacrifice lateral stability, but found it to be surprisingly good. The Pegasus Trail 3 isn’t as stiff or rugged as other trail running or hiking shoes, so wouldn’t recommend for a technical or muddy hike.

But the lugs provide good grip on the loose dirt and rocks we have in our area. And it’s certainly versatile: I put these on several times for a workout and found myself still wearing them after errands, picking up the kids, and a few hours around the house.

The teal wasn’t my favorite (though it grew on me) because it was tough to match with any of my workout clothes. But performance- and comfort-wise, the Pegasus Trail 3 has performed well.

Knowing this shoe is focused on trail running/hiking with emphasis on cushioning, I made the decision to go half size up to 10. 5 (versus my true to size 10 in Jordans and non-running Nikes), which was the way to go.

The Nike Pegasus Trail 3 fits snug and wraps around my foot comfortably, which is important for traversing uneven and rocky terrain. The thick React foam in the midsole is surprisingly light and springy, but still provides good structural support for everyday wear.

I believe the design language of the shoe was to provide hiking utility while still allowing for casual wear. The upper is made of mesh to keep the shoe breathable, which allows me to wear the shoes all day long.

The shoes are very light, comfortable, and easy to put on. There’s also no need to untie and retie the laces, and shoes are easy to slip on and off. What I like most about the Pegasus Trail 3 is how versatile one pair of shoes can be.

I was able to work out, pick up groceries, and hike a trail all in the same pair of shoes. Although teal is not my preferred color for shoes, I do admit it matches well with the greyish-pinkish midsole to create a very striking colorway.

The Nike Winflo 8 are good running shoes given the price, but not sure I would buy them again for running. The shoes are not what I would call lively. The Zoom cushioning is decent, but much more reactive when paired with the Zoom Air units and/or React foam.

The cushioning was a little firmer for my liking. It could be just a poor fit for my weight and running style as I am only 135lbs. However, if you are serious runner, I would probably consider ramping up to the React foam lines or the Pegasus or Miler.

The design is very good. Pretty wide footprint and grippy sole. I really like the material they used because it is more an “all weather” material that seems to shed water and dirt quite well. Great for winter running.

Has a good rocker on the forefront for some good toe-off on the strike. The 10mm drop is good. Sizing was a little confusing. I originally went to the Nike store and is where I first saw them. Tried them on the store, but my normal size 8 was extremely big and the 7.

5 fit. Went online to order a different color in size 7. 5 and they were too small. Had to reorder an 8. I am always an 8 in Nike. Not sure why the ones in the Nike store were different sizing. But finally they did fit as expected.

Straight out of the box these sneakers are one of the most comfortable I have ever worn. I am used to wearing flatter sneakers because of stability but these have a nice cushion while still having that stable feeling.

They feel like Nike Reacts but more stable in my opinion. They have great versatility. I am a physical therapist and on my feet all day and wearing these have reduced the fatigue I feel in my feet. After working all day I can keep them on and go to the gym for a workout.

They have also become my new walking or light hiking sneakers. Aside from function, they have a sleek athletic design and can go with a gym outfit or just casual day out. As a sneakerhead who collects Jordan’s and Air Maxes these have actually gotten more wear time since owning.

I will likely wear these to the ground and then get another pair when I’ve worn them out.

I bought the shoes on line for my son, it’s hard as he wears a size 14 and has a wide foot so we ordered the shoes and when they came he tried them on and was amazed on how comfortable they were. They have a memory sole and states his feet do not hurt after a long day wearing them.

He loves the bright color and would highly recommend the shoes. I, as a Mom would highly recommend buying from Academy, their prices are VERY competitive, easy to order from and shipping is free. Very satisfied MN customer! No store up here can match Academy!.

I loved the support and comfort, BUT, they are built narrow. I had to go up 2 half sizes (on 2 seperate orders) but they were still narrow/tight in the instep/toe area. You could see that clearly when compared to my current Nike Dual Fusion.

Other Nike products I’ve owned are true to size and normal D width. I had to return both up sizes. Returns were handled quickly and without problem.

These shoes are so nice Love them right when I seen them Sad that They run small need a half size bigger Can’t wait to receive them again hope they fit this time but really comfortable in my shoes by the color white :).

The shoes are very nice and very comfortable. A bit fair in size because the front is rather narrow. In my case, I took one size up and they fit me perfectly. Shipping has been fast and the package has arrived in perfect condition.

Buy highly recommended.

Second time I have bought these for my 4 year old little boy. Trendy trainer for jeans and joggers and fab for him to run about in too! Easy and quick for him to put on himself. Will probably purchase again when he grows out of this size!.

My son loved the sneakers. Soft, comfortable, light. Have Velcro instead of shoelaces. I hope in these sneakers will be comfortable to train. I recommend everyone to buy!

A premier American sportswear performance brand, Nike’s focus for decades was on sneakers, and this still accounts for a significant portion of their business. With the 2010s advent of drop culture and rise of “sneakerhead” collectors and flippers, Nike has flourished by bringing fresh colorways of its iconic shoe lines to market frequently, resulting in lines at the door on launch days and immediate sellouts online.

Apparel underperformed until a mid-aughts collaboration with designer Stella McCartney upended possibilities for the brand and the industry. Nike continues to drop collabs with noted designers and public figures, continues to uphold its standard of iconic advertising (print media) featuring inspirational figures and the recognizable “swoosh” logo, and has flexed with many sportswear brands into athleisure apparel in more luxurious fabrics and stylish colorways and prints.

Buyers should know a few things: 1. The shoes run narrow, and for some models, a bit small. 2. Due to collectors leveraging aggregators to track releases, some pieces sell out immediately and reappear on the gray market at huge markups.

3. Clothing is mostly well made and with care should last for some time. Cotton pieces will still shrink a bit. Some say women’s clothing sizes also run a bit small. 4. Due to a broadening of the brand’s target market, pricing for items ranges widely.

For reference I am 31 years old living in Southern Cali with two very energetic small children ages 3 & 5. I am constantly on my feet and constantly running after them. It is starting to get a bit warm around here so outdoor activities are a must.

I own one pair of sneakers and don’t know much about them so my review will be solely on my experience with these. To begin with the look of the shoes, very interesting to say the least, they are mostly white with a hint of color (pink & purple) stitching that looks very retro.

The have a “horn-like” look at the heel of of the shoe which was interesting and not something I had seen on another shoe nor is it something I’d personally want as a design. The sole was very comfortable while on my feet for hours, the shoes had a sort of bounce that really helped with my heels.

They did get dirty after the first two wears and I’d say they didn’t wipe down as easily as others. The front of the shoe is a lot more rounded which I guess is good because a pointed toe along with the pointed heel would’ve looked weird.

Some things I noticed while wearing that I would like to see improvements on: not very breathable, my feet felt moist after 3 hours of wear in 80° weather. They also felt very narrow, I don’t usually have issues with shoes fitting me tight but these definitely felt like I could’ve used some width, I had to wear thinner socks.

These are true to size with the exception of the narrow feel. The laces also felt very thin compared to other pairs I have. Overall I did enjoy the feel of the shoe but because of its design it’s not something I’d purchase myself, I guess my style is more muted and these are “fun” shoels.

Working in the medical field and being on my feet 12 hours a day, I read reviews and did research that suggested that these would do wonders. However, they are the complete opposite. After one shift, me feet were begging to have these shoes off! I could barely pick my feet up to walk after being home for just an hour.

I chalked it up to having new shoes and my feet needing to adjust. I was wrong, again. After 2 weeks of wearing only these shoes during work, I have come to the unfortunate conclusion that they need to be replaced.

It’s quite possible they are better for running or in a different profession; If you’re walking or on your feet for an extensive period of time, save yourself the aching feet, ankles and spend your money on something else.

As noted by other reviewers, these are a really nice running shoe. They have good support and allow me to get through my day with ease. A couple of things to note: * You need to go 1/2 size larger than you normally would in a tennis shoe.

I normally wear a size 8. 5 and had to get the size 9 or my toes would have pushed against the edges. * The Tongue of the Shoe is a bit long and narrow. So you need to be careful to pull this all the way up and is spread all the way out before you tie the laces.

Otherwise it will curl inward and be uncomfortable. * The Laces of the Show are a bit silky. So you either need to double-knot them or make sure that you have tied the shoelace extra tightly, or they will come undone while out.

The description of this shoe is spot on! This is great for HIIT, strength training, & even the elliptical machine. Also, I am able to keep a solid balance when I deadlift! I would not recommend this for the treadmill at all.

I knew to go up a 1/2 size because I have a pair of Zoom Gravity. I feel the Zoom collection is designed to “cradle or mold” to your feet to give you the best workout because the Gravity is great for the treadmill.

The lemon color looks good with almost anything & the shoe does not look big at all. Please pass on this shoe if you’re not into HIIT or strength training. This shoe is not made for running and being at Disney World all day.

It is meant to do what it’s made for HIIT class.

I love, love, love the Nike Daybreak shoes. They are very comfortable and I am someone with peripheral neuropathy in my feet. I plan to order more colors. I ordered a half a size down and they fit well.

If I had ordered my regular size, they would have been too big. I have several other pair of Nike’s that I bought in the last six months, and these are the most comfortable. The only thing I don’t care for is that there are two little “nubs” on the front of the shoe.

These are all over the bottom, which is fine, but I don’t like them on the front of the shoe.

I have had my eye on these beauties for a while. Being a fan of the 80’s, these were right up my street. Look super cool and will go with any outfit. Got a great price too. Went half a size down as per reviews.

Perfect. But have to say that the best thing is how extremely comfy these trainers are. Like walking on a cloud. I’ve done about 40,000 steps around Paris in 2 days and my feet are not hurting at all.

Miracle trainers. Buy them – you won’t regret it!.

I waited months for these to come into stock in my size and was absolutely elated when they did. I knew they would be a return, but I thought the person returned as they didn’t fit… The person had worn them.

There was bobbling on the ankle area, the soles were dirty, the toe area was creased, worse on one side and there was a sticky substance on the back of the other. The box was crushed and there wasn’t even any tissue in the trainers either.

I’m surprised that ASOS accepted the return. I contacted ASOS who offered me a 20% discount on another pair, so that was great.
