Customer Reviews

Comfortable and very light5
I've only worn them a few times now, but I love them. This was the first time I purchased shoes online so it was a little scary. The shoes are very comfortable and a lot lighter than most shoes I've owned. The only complaint, and it minor, is the shoelaces are a little too long and can make the shoes a little tight. No big deal. I would buy these shoes again in a heart beat.

Great Shoe4
These shoes are comfortable, stylish, and a great value. They fit my wide foot like a glove. That being said, I do have just a couple of areas to complain about. First, I'm not sure how durable these will be compared to other NB shoes I've owned; after just one wear, the lettering inside the shoe (insole) started wearing off. They have a really cool groove down the middle of the sole, and while this may have some ergonomic benefit (?), it does catch rocks every now and then. Finally, I was disappointed to see that this was one of NB's China-made shoes. One of the reasons I'm a loyal customer (other than the fact that they make a superior shoe) is that they make most of their shoes in the US; the only athletic shoe company to do so. Not so with this pair.

Amazingly comfortable!5
I ordered these shoes while Amazon had them on sale, and I am using them as walking shoes. These shoes are extremely comfortable, and the toe section is very well ventilated. I would highly recommend these shoes to any runners and walkers.

I wear them daily around my college campus for nearly eight hours every day. These are well ventilated, comfortable, and my feet have stopped hurting coming from wearing Adidas Superstars everyday.

And also, buying American made shoes helps our economy!
