An affordable entry-level daily trainer that leans on soft foam and Flywire cables for a comfortable, secure fit rather than performance. It suits new or casual runners logging easy road miles and doubles as a versatile all-day and gym shoe, but it isn't built for tempo work or racing. A consistently reported squeaking issue after a few weeks of wear is the main caveat.
Soft, plush underfoot feel from a taller foam midsole than the prior version, tuned for comfort on easy road runs rather than snappy responsiveness. No plate and no measured stack or drop data available.
Nike states it fits small and recommends ordering a half size up, though many reviewers find it true to size; wider feet should size up or seek the extra-wide (FZ9666) version. Flywire cables provide a secure midfoot lockdown.
Beginners and casual runners wanting an affordable, cushioned neutral shoe for easy daily road miles, walking and light gym use.
You need a responsive shoe for tempo runs, racing or long fast efforts, or you want verified stack, weight and durability data.
