I’ve recently got myself a pair of these monarchs and I must say, these are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever purchased for myself. The sole is very soft and it makes it so comfortable to walk in. I wore these in the city, I walked for about 7 hours and my feet did not hurt with these. They also go very well with anything. These are straight up my style and definitely has the comfort fit I look for in shoes. An even better plus is that these give you an inch height boost lol, they’re pretty thick so that’s why. The bottom grip is also good for wet floors and the material in general is awesome. These are meant to last.

These Monarch 4 shoes are so comfortable. I usually buy a new pair every couple of years because they are comfortable yet durable. Unfortunately, the last few pairs I bought are squeaky and creaky. With the last pair I bought, the right shoe is squeakier than ever. I mean every step is a loud squeak, even when walking outside. The left shoe is quiet. I took out the insole, and it is still squeaky. There seems to be something rubbing together between the mid sole and the outer sole. The soles seems like they are glued together fine, but the noise says otherwise. Unfortunately, I do not think I will be purchasing these again.

I've been buying these Monarchs for years. I wear them 90% of the time, and I get a good 15 months out of a pair typically. I especially like all leather as you can wipe them clean with a gentle soap and they still look good (where the other styles have nylon which just doesn't easily clean up. I wash these leather shoes in the washer with an old white towel and this is how they come out (note that this pair is 14 months old so they're nearing end-of-life as bottom treads are starting to thin). These probably have another two months left. One thing about washing is give them a full week to air dry (lift the inner portion out so it thoroughly dries). Only thing about these shoes I don't like is that some pair really squeak when new. Not the rubber tread against the ... MoreI've been buying these Monarchs for years.

Only thing about these shoes I don't like is that some pair really squeak when new. Not the rubber tread against the floor, the the leather and insole sound like darn "clown shoes". I found that lifting the insole out some and thoroughly flooding the new shoe with foot powder gets in to the seams and minimizes that. After washing the squeak comes back.. so often more foot powder in the shoe is needed.

Great comfort, shoe lasts a long time, and these look good. I've been buying the Monarch for years and really like ALMOST everything about it.. except one thing. These develop a "clown shoe squeak". Yes.. I have four different pair.. and every single one squeaks like clown shoes. I've removed the inside/bottom portion and added foot powder, but that lasts about a day. Not sure WHY these do this, but they do. Maybe I inadvertently bought "Squeakers" instead of "Sneakers"??? I notified Nike a couple of years ago, but as expected.. no response.
Built VERY poorly - after only four weeks the upper had separated from the outsole around the big toe areas, the liner in same area had worn completely through because I was able to see right through that spot entirely AND the spot where the back of the ankle contacts the inside liner of the shoe was beginning to blow out following the liner eroding. The only reason they made it to six weeks before I threw them away was because I was able to hold them together with some glue and duct tape, but they wouldn’t have made it past two months anyway because the tread had worn to be completely flat in some spots. It was such a mistake to try these instead of my usual pair of Hoka Bondi SR, those are more expensive but last so much longer that you save money after the ... MoreBuilt VERY poorly - after only four weeks the upper had separated from the outsole around the big toe areas, the liner in same area had worn completely through because I was able to see right through that spot entirely AND the spot where the back of the ankle contacts the inside liner of the shoe was beginning to blow out following the liner eroding.

It was such a mistake to try these instead of my usual pair of Hoka Bondi SR, those are more expensive but last so much longer that you save money after the lifespan of one pair of those, plus they’re so much more plush for their entire lifespan - a pair of those Hokas at four months is better than a pair of these Nikes right out of the box. Of course I walk a lot more than the average person, but these only see flat surfaces and the occasional bit of lawn plus the pedals of my work vehicle.
The shoes were not for me, as I need a shoe with a long "tongue" because I use elastic laces to "slip into" my shoes.Otherwise, the shoes looked very sturdy and durable and I only wish the "tongue" was longer so my elastic laces would work better.On the other hand, the customer support at Nike was fantastic!!! 5 stars!!! Excellent tracking and email communication with regular updates.I'm going to find another pair (maybe running or walking shoes) with a longer tongue at the Nike website.Thank you Nike for your wonderful customer support!!!!
The good - very stylish and comfortable, The bad squeaks when you walk. This is my 3rd pair of this style. They use to be very good but the last two pair sound like a quacking duck. They never use to be like this so they must have changed something in production. I tried to leave a video but Nike wouldn't let me. Just google or search youtube videos for Nike Air Monarch squeak and you will see numerous videos. After a lot of research and trial and error I have reduced the noise somewhat.
I have been wearing these since 2006. This last pair I received squeaks and sounds like a duck quacking as you walk. I took them to the Macy's located in Concord, CA at the men's store to return/exchange. I was denied a refund, and nothing was mentioned about an exchange. Their MAGIC skills are a joke. I was treated like I was shopping at Sears before they went under. I ended up making the drive down to Nordstroms to buy shoes, and I spent $250.00 there yesterday. Finish Line has a 45-day period for exchanges if there is a defect. I was within the 45-day period, and Macy's states on the receipt the return period was until the end of January 2024. Here it was January, 8, 2024, and I was denied service. The Finish Line employee also told me to go to a sporting goods ... MoreI have been wearing these since 2006.

The Finish Line employee also told me to go to a sporting goods store in the mall where the Macy's was located to do the return. My boss also said something about the noise these shoes produced. This is the last item I buy at Macy's or Finish Line.
I wear these shoes for work as a delivery driver. I put a lot of miles on shoes, have flat feet that are hard on shoes, and need stable support in a shoe. I’ve tried many different shoes over the years and keep coming back to these. They have the best cushioned comfort combined with very good arch area/inside support of any shoe I’ve tried. I have LOTS of experience with these shoes. Seriously I’ve bought probably 20 pairs of them. With some the rubber on the bottom will start to separate after a few months. Super glue will fix that. The squeak usually occurs after a few months or harsh conditions such as walking in a lot of wet areas. The squeak is caused by the air chambers working loose and moving around. They definitely last about six months of everyday work, ... MoreI wear these shoes for work as a delivery driver.

They definitely last about six months of everyday work, but any shoe is truly worn out after that time regardless of appearance as the support will be gone and cause knee or foot problems. I’ve searched all over and these are still the best out there for all around comfort and support for everyday walking.
Dear Nike, I have been wearing and wearing out air monarchs for most of my life. (I'm 73 now) I have big feet 15 wide and they give the support I need to play fast tennis. Hit aces and win sets. I also use them for work. I have a pair for gardening that would appall most people. I should send you a photo. They are so old chunks are coming off. However new white ones I can wear to almost formal occasions. I was in Safeway and an older lady in line asked me how come my shoes looked so nice? I replied, "I don't wear them." Pretty hilarious!Yours John
