This is my 3rd pair of Nike free rn running shoes. Im not a runner. So if thats what you're buying them for then continue to the next review! Lol.
Im a plus size mom in her 30s that religiously uses her Fitbit and therefore needed comfortable shoes. When I bought my first pair I was in my twenties and I was going to start running. Yeah right... it didn't happen. A few years later I got a Fitbit and did actually start walking every day in the running shoes that were covered in dust when I put them on the second time around. I cant even explain the feeling of the Nike free rns. Its literally like walking on air. They are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned (they should be because other than a pair of doc martin boots they are the most Ive ever paid for shoes). After about a year I wore out my first pair. Last year I bought my second pair. I loved them even more! The design had changed a bit but the comfort that I purchased them for was still ever present. I wore them out in less time than the first. And then I ordered these. I was worried they could be a knockoff from China, but with Amazons free return policy I took a chance and ordered them (I even got free SAME day shipping!!). Ive had them over a month now and I love them as much as my other 2 pairs. I chose this black with gray (its really just a lighter black) in hopes I can get away with wearing them to work because we cant wear sneakers but since they're all black its harder to tell. I haven't tried yet because Im on maternity leave, but I will!
In all honesty I would purchase them in the black with the white swoosh (like my second pair) if I wasn't trying to sneak them in to work. Sometimes I feel like these look like the old people shoes from new balance that they get at Costco. But I know its just in my head and they don't really look like that. I don't care if they do because they are saving my back from aching, my knees, and my feet!
In conclusion, BUY THESE SHOES!!
