These shoes are awesome. Extremely well made and fit amazingly. Very stylish and good looking shoes. I love the shox because they holdup against any conditions and are durable enough to last a long time. Great purchase

Cool design lacking flexibility
I’ve been trying out these shoes at the gym for my workouts and have mixed feelings about them.
First off the design— it feels very sleek and cool, no problems there, I felt they complimented my gym attire well. I like the look of the fabric and the classic shox look the shoe has.
As far as performance I felt the shox gave a bit of a boost to my running and sprints, and a literal spring in my step around the gym, which was appreciated. They definitely give you some volume to your height as the shoes are pretty high off the ground due to the soles/shocks.
As far as fit goes it wasn’t my preferred. The toe box is quite narrow— wide footed people take note. The fabric of the shoe is also quite thick and I would guess my feet would feel very hot outdoors in the hotter months. The sole is super stiff, not allowing for much flexing in the foot while exercising and also creating a bit of a rub/ shoes lifting off the back of my heels. I don’t know if the sole would get more flexible over time, but it was too stiff for me to want to choose this as my go-to exercising shoe.
Overall I think it’s a cool shoe with that classic nike shox look, but I wouldn’t choose it for regular exercise.

Overall, I was very pleased with the fit of the shoe. The shoe fits very snug and comfortable. I normally purchase a size 10 and have a little room in a shoe, however this size 10 fit is very snug. The arch support in the shoe was perfect for my feet and gave me the support I needed. The all-black sleek look of the shoe with simple designs was very attractive. This simple all black shoes can be worn with any outfit. I like the material the shoe is made of it appears to be canvas like however I wore the shoes in the rain and snow and my feet did not get wet. I really like the columns on the back of the shoe that absorb shock, with walking a lot I felt this help ease the strain on my back. The shoe could be a little wider for those that don’t have narrow feet. Overall, I was very pleased with the Nike Shox R4 shoes.

These are my 1st pair of Nike Shox R4 Shoes, but they definitely won’t be my last. I have worn them everyday since I got them. This pair has me running back and forth and up and down behind my 1 year old daughter. They provide amazing support and the heel is comfortable.. Even after wearing them for long hours there’s no discomfort. They’re true to size. My feet are a tad bit wider, but I had no issues. All I did was adjust the laces and they fit perfectly. The side profile looks amazing. I never thought that a shoe this stylish would be my new “Mom Shoe” I can’t wait to get my next pair.

Comfortable, Flattering, Durable
Nikes are my favorite sneaker for both gym and casual, and the office if I can swing it. These seemed a little more modish than my usual black sneakers, but still live up to everything I love about Nike. I've tested them around NYC, walking the dog, and on a ski trip to Lake Tahoe. They are comfortable walking for long distances, look a little more interesting than the standard black sneaker, have a subtle height boost, and somehow make my feet look smaller. The treads are also sufficient for light snow/slush, and the shoe itself is pretty durable. They have become a go-to in my closet.

Shox R4 - A comfortable and supportive running shoe!
First, I absolutely love the all black color, they will match with just about anything! These shoes are very flattering - I feel that most cushioned shoes look very bulky, but these do not. With that being said, they are a bit on the narrow side for fit. I normally wear a size 5.5 and the size 6 are a little snug on my wide feet, but they should stretch out a little bit once I break them in. Overall, they are true to size. You may want to size up a half size if you have wider feet like me. These shoes feel very supportive with good ankle support and cushioning, which is perfect for me since I tend to have weak ankles. I'm excited to have a cute pair of supportive shoes for my daily walks/runs, and for those long days on my feet!

These shoes unfortunately do not fit my foot shape well, which is a bummer because they are pretty cool looking with the spring-y things under the heel! I sized up a half size in hopes that the would be wide enough in the toes for me, which typically works for me. Unfortunately this didn’t give enough space in the toe box for my 9.5cm wide, very low volume feet. The material just doesn’t have enough give on the sides. The heel is interesting and cool but also makes the sole very stiff, which seems to override the foot’s natural springiness when jumping. All in all, they didn’t work for me but others may appreciate the high heel!

I’m not a fan of black shoes but I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable these shoes were! I wore them to a workout class as well as shopping after and they were very comfy!

A millennial’s teenage dream
My inner teenage self is overjoyed that shox have made a comeback! The first thing I noticed was it provides great support from the heel and ankle all through the arch. I’m in healthcare and have loved wearing these for my long shifts. Not only are they comfortable, but there’s a lot of leather to provide extra protection from any unwanted splashing fluids. I did get a half size up, but think I would’ve been fine with my true size. I would not recommend to those with wide feet as I do find these a little narrow, but that works fine for me. Very happy with these!
