The heel and arch are slightly too high. I prefer a barefoot type feel. Nike is phasing out lower heels though it seems. These are doable since the front of the shoe flexes and my feet don't hurt after walking in them but while wearing them the arch part feels like it is a bit too hard and I wish they didn't have so much lift in the mid/heel area. I would love a supportive but low heel shoes. The free run 2018 squeaked up and down but their sole was perfect. Please just make some new free run options.

Heel and arch slightly too high

My favorite style has changed

I have always loved this shoe, but it has changed in design and the way it fits. 8.5 regular has always fit me, but now I find it a little more narrow and the overall shape has changed. Difficult to buy shoes online line when they are inconsistent, which is something I have never had to deal with before on Nike running shoes.
Not good for running. Good for circuits/weights/kettlebells.

I bought an earlier version of this for jogging on roads. After years of reliably being an 8.5 in all Nike shoes, exchanged to a 9 as they seem to run small. They are very flat and lightweight, and as it turned out not comfortable for running at all for me. *However*, used them as circuit/weights/kettlebell shoes on a concrete floor workout space and casual bike riding- and they were very good for this purpose. Have now worn those out, and likely will purchase this new version hoping they have not altered them much since. I use Revolutions for the jogs now, and with these two models am well prepared for all my different activities.
