  • August 3, 20153 people found this review helpfulOverall:Comfort:Style:I love these shoes! First, let me address size. I usually need wide width shoes, but these weren't available in WW. However, I read other reviews on multiple websites and most seemed to agree that these run a bit small, and many reviewers suggested ordering up a half size. So I ordered a 9.5 regular width, instead of my usual 9. They fit perfectly. They're roomy but not too loose, and the toe box feels just right. All I had to do was loosen the laces slightly, and they're perfect. Secondly, comfort. Originally I was trying to replace my old shoes, the Nike Lunarglide, which I absolutely loved. But the cost for the newest version (upward of a lot) was just a bit too steep for me. So I shopped around (and around) and finally settled on these. I am very happy with this choice. I am a veterinary technician in a very busy specialty hospital. My shifts are at least 12 hours long, and I'm on my feet for most, if not all, of those hours. I really need a shoe that is durable and comfortable, and the Nike Downshifter 6 is both. Vet techs are notorious for blowing through shoes, we're just really hard on them. And I think these will stand up just as well as the Lunarglides that I had for close to two years. They're also stylish, which doesn't hurt. (I have the light grey with purple laces and a teal swoosh.) I don't hit the gym, and I'm not a runner (I prefer my elliptical), but I would venture to guess that these would be nice for those activities as well. The arch support and cushion are great, even with my high arches. Definitely a good buy, especially for the price.Fit SurveyRuns SmallRuns LargeFelt true to sizeRuns NarrowRuns WideFelt true to widthPoor SupportGreat SupportModerate arch support

    • February 28, 2015Overall:Comfort:Style:I bought these to wear on a vacation where we would do a lot of walking and needed a comfortable pair of shoes that provided a comfortable base and didn't restrict my toes. This pair worked great, they lost a point for the funky color (but it's growing on me). I can overlook a lot for comfort. I normally wear an 8 but have found That I need an 8 1/2 in fitness shoes or they all pinch my toes by the end of a workout.Fit SurveyRuns SmallRuns LargeFelt true to sizeRuns NarrowRuns WideFelt true to widthPoor SupportGreat SupportModerate arch support

        • May 16, 2016Overall:Comfort:Style:Nothing fancy here, just a basic sneaker. I walk at least six miles every day and needed another pair of shoes in the rotation. These fit the bill perfectly. Very lightweight. There was a brief breaking-in period, but I walked ten miles in them the other day.Fit SurveyRuns SmallRuns LargeFelt a half size smaller than markedPoor SupportGreat SupportModerate arch support
