I loved the design! The colors were so fun and absolutely stood out as a pair of workout shoes. The lace holes did make it a little hard to quickly get them consistently tight. The fabric is very comfortable and durable, the amount of support around the ankle felt great too. The grip of the sole is also really helpful for quick movement and standing for a while still feels comfy. The only thing I would change is the lace holes, with them being not symmetrical it just takes a little more time to get adjusted than I would like.

These kicks are awesome! The fit and design are perfect for a night out or for going to any sporting games. I have flat feet and usually have a problem finding the right sneakers that are a good fit comfort wise. These fit just right. The design is sleek and on trend. I wear it at the gym and always get a good workout in. The fabric is thicker and is good for lifting weights or playing basketball. I like that I can wear it casual while out on a run or out on a Saturday night at a nice lounge. Nike always makes the best quality. It's a must have.

They don’t have the look and feel of my usual basketball or running shoe. This would be best worn lifting weights. It gives you a more flat footed base.The design is also more over the top than I would like. The large stitching in the front seems almost patchwork vs sneaker.I’ll definitely continue to use these to work out but nothing more.The look in person vs online just didn’t match. Now my wife on the other hand loves the way they look and that’s what helped with my rating.

To begin, this shoe is so cute! I love the design on the bottom and back. The colors pop and then when you look closer, there are lots of other subtle details in the stitching and the fabrics. When I first put them on, I felt like I was walking on a cloud. Unfortunately, after a few hours, there was a pressure at the top outside of both of my feet. It made it difficult to continue to wear the shoes. I could definitely wear them for a workout, because I know that my feet are getting the support they need. But for a day of being active with workouts throughout, these will not be my go to shoe.
They’re nice and comfortable, I was able to wear them all day on the first day without any trouble. Sizing was exactly as expected. I also appreciate that they were great workout or casual shoes. We’re taking the kids to a few amusement parks where we’ll be doing a ton of walking and I plan on wearing them since they’ll still look nice. The material also seem pretty durable, it doesn’t seem like they will get scuffed up really easily.There are a ton of unique features to them, like the asymmetrical laces and two-tone swoosh. I will say, in person, they’re probably a bit more “modern/edgy“ than I would normally go for, but maybe they’re keeping this dad looking a bit young!
The ZOOM FREAK 5 arrived in perfect condition with wonderful packaging, when I tried them on I was so relieved that they fit perfectly! Im a size 9 1/2-10 women’s and the sides of my feet are wide so it’s hard to find shoes I can workout and run in and these are those shoes!!! They feel like walking on clouds yet have a great grip while lifting weights and going off road for a run, the design is beautiful and the color pattern is bright and sporty and matches a few of my outfits! The shoes also leave room for your feet to breathe while also providing the extra padding needed for running. I would give it a 10/10 and would love to purchase some more in other colors!
I've just received my package in the post a day after ordering them. Very impressive! I've had these on my feet for about 20 minutes now and I can say I'm very impressed so far, the comfort is perfect, the size seems pretty true, although they are a narrow shoe, so if you have a wide foot maybe look elsewhere. I almost bought a pair of Zoom freak 4's last week but am glad I held off for this update. The Spring from the forefoot is great, the heal is firmish which suits me. Overall the materials feel good, the outer is plush, nice and soft, It isn't a stiff shoe so there is some twist so if support is what you're after, this probably won't suit you. Colour looks amazing, I can't wait to play in them tomorrow night!
The Zoom Freak 5 is a very solid shoe! It’s got a lot of structure and I’m confident it will hold up with continued daily wear. The fabric is high quality and the design is unique. I really like the bright accent colors and details used in the design of the shoe, like the multicolored bottom and distinctive shoelace pattern. I ordered a size 9 and could have probably sized up another half size. I typically wear an 8.5-9 for reference, so I would say they run a little small. Overall, great shoe and my go to pick right now!
Ran a bit narrow for me than usual nike shoes. When I paired it with thinner socks, the shoes hugged perfectly. The design is so much fun. I got the Black/Fuchsia Dream/Baltic Blue/Phantom design and it matches a lot of my neon funky clothes that I wear. The materials and fabric felt like a blend of space age cushioning with traditional softness of synthetic leather shoes. It's comfortable in casual and active sessions - I played hours of pickleball and basketball in this without a problem such as developing callouses on my toes. My only gripe is to make it a touch less narrow so I can be comfortable in more types of socks. Highly recommended!
There are several components to a great basketball shoe. Fit, performance, appearance, and durability. These shoes take all the right boxes, but maybe not for everybody.First, let’s talk about fit. The shoes fit true to size, and are very comfortable, but are also pretty narrow in the toebox area. They are not narrow throughout the shoe, but they are narrow in the toebox area. They are a low top shoes and easy to wear with or without ankle braces. I found the best fit for these shoes on my feet was with a thin sock. I do however, have wide flat feet in the toe area. These shoes were never painful, but I knew I was wearing them because of the tightness in the toe box. For people who do not have wide feet I think these will be fantastic.Appearance is quite ... MoreThere are several components to a great basketball shoe. Fit, performance, appearance, and durability.

For people who do not have wide feet I think these will be fantastic.Appearance is quite subjective, but style is important. I really liked the style of these shoes, the colors stand out without being crazy, and smother shoe some is particularly fantastic.I liked the way these shoes performed on the court. They great for cutting and slashing. I never felt that these were unstable, or that I was going to roll and ankle in them. I liked the fact that they were low top because it allowed them to be more comfortable in the ankle area while wearing braces, I also wore them without braces for casual training and shooting. Again they felt stable, light, weight, and easy to move in. The traction was also very good.I cannot speak to the long term durability of the shoe, but I have not seen any unusual wear patterns that would cause concern. The materials seem to be high quality and I don’t expect any durability issues, I may update the review in the future with additional long term durability information.
