Let me start by saying these shoes are *ridiculously* comfortable. Like, 'forgot-I'm-wearing-basketball-shoes' comfortable. The cushioning makes my daily subway stairs feel like walking on clouds.
The black/anthracite colorway goes with literally everything - I've worn them with joggers to the gym and with dark jeans for casual Fridays. That shiny toe cap though? It's a fingerprint magnet. After two weeks, mine already has some scuff marks from accidental kicks.
Size tip: They run slightly narrow. I usually wear 10.5 in Nikes but had to exchange for an 11. Break-in period was minimal - just one gym session and they molded perfectly to my feet.
Surprise bonus: The traction pattern works great on rainy sidewalks. No slips even when NYC streets turn into slip-n-slides. Would I buy again? Absolutely, though maybe in the matte color option next time.
