" ... I particularly like the color of these. ... "
" ... The blue and orange together looks awesome. ... "
" ... I would give it 5 stars, but the colors to choose from in the 18 model are not as good as they were in the 17 model. ... This new 18 line and even the 19 line has for the most part boring and safe colors or the ones made to look more bold are well just more tacky than bold. ... "

" ... Honestly I'm surprised these have held up stronger than my Brooks Glycerin 14, which basically fell apart after I finally finished my marathon (both shoes are at approximately 120miles now). ... "
" ... Previously owned a pair of Nimbus 15 and wore them till they fell apart so now I'm giving the 18's a try. ... "
" ... Fit as expected and are comfortable to wear. ... "
" ... I have sports orthotics made for these shoes and they fit perfectly. ... "
" ... My only beef is that I can't imagine how they'll last more than a few months without anything resembling leather or synthetic leather to reinforce the upper. ... "
" ... These shoes are the best I have ever worn. ... "
" ... The mesh material over the foot area has enough give that the snug fit is not uncomfortable. ... "
" ... They have great cushion and the wide mesh on top protects his big toenail from getting bruised and falling off. ... "
