[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son’s first pair of old vault shoes which he says are so comfortable.

I bought these shoes because they are so beautiful but I have a wide foot and they were so tight on me that I could not wear them. I tried to break them in I even took them to a shoe repair person to try to stretch them out but the material doesn't give. I wish I could return them. Another teammate on my pole vault team had the same problem with them.

Very nice shoes. My doughter is very happy.

I ordered the black pair and I’ve received so many compliments when people see the bright pink at the bottom of the shoe. This shoe fits great, but definitely size up. I usually wear 9.5 womens but I ordered a 9 in men’s and it fits perfect. I bought these shoes, peacticed in them once, then competed. They’re easy to break into.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great track cleat. The only this I see wrong is it needs more cushion in them

Shoe fits great and very comfortable for track spikes only down side is the color I think instead of green for the symbols on the front and top they should have just done pink for those symbols that’s the only down side to these shoes are there color schemes but overall an amazing shoe for vaulting

Going by Nike brand, I was a bit disappointed wearing these shoes. They just do not fit right. They run a size small so I would suggest going up a size if you really want them to fit comfortably. I like the overall look of these shoes with fancy bright color. They come with spokes to give a good grip on ground which makes it easy to run. The best feature of these would be it comes with velcro strap to adjust shoe fitting.

I love this shoe from Nike! The colors are great! The fit is perfect. The traction is just right. They are the lightest shoe I’ve ever worn! I like the strap that goes over the shoe laces to keep the laces from interfering with my pole vaulting. I wish they made this shoe in an everyday casual shoe, because I don’t want to take it off!

For starters, these shoes are obviously for a very specific purpose - they'll be worn for short periods of time during practice or competition, and that's about it. Because of that, I had fairly low expectations when it came to comfort, build quality, and even in how event-specific these shoes would really be. These really exceeded my expectations in all of those areas.

They're incredibly well built - high quality materials, bulletproof construction, and a great, snug fit. They fit true to size - I have average width 10.5 feet and these were perfect. I think the fit was enhanced by the velcro strap that goes across the top of your foot - it lets you get these to the perfect level of tightness without having to screw around with the laces too much. The shoe is also clearly designed for pole vaulting - from the rigidity of the sole to the placement of the spikes and the cushioning on the shoe. It makes me think these would last about as long as you'd like, especially given the limited usage.

It's a minor gripe, but I wish the tool that you use to screw in the spikes was magnetic inside. The spikes are flattened on two sides so that the tool can get ahold of them, but if you don't line them up right then they fall out more easily than I'd like. If you're someone that would be taking the spikes on and off a lot then it could get annoying.

Overall, no real complaints with these - 5 out of 5!

The latest edition of the Pole Vault Elites lives up to historical Nike standards with a few noticeable improvements. The shoe fits snugly on my foot which I prefer for competitions. The velcro strap is a nice touch as it adds the ability to tighten the shoe more broadly vs laces being too tight in certain places and not others. This gives a full snug fit. There is a good mix of stability and comfort while I also noticed the shoe’s ability to propel me forward. The spikes are sturdy and easy to install. The design makes for a stylish, bold look as well. Overall, great shoe for competing.
