NORTIV 8Men's Walking Running Tennis Cushioning Shoes ActiveFloat Non Slip Athletic Gym Workout Jogging Comfortable Sneakers

Update. After wearing these shoes several times walking 3-5 miles there is something about them that it doesn't allow me to keep a fast pace, nor a long walk. Granted, they are cushy but the design of the soles they don't offer the roller effect as the Hokas. I wrote my initial review raving, and I still do for the price, but don't plan on wearing these for a fast/longer walk. I usually walk 3-5 miles daily. If I exaggerate my heel to toe than the shoes tend to respond betterI wish I had found it sooner!I was reluctant to order these since most generic shoes are made for Asian markets, ie., too small, poor quality. Well, I was wrong.First I own several HOKAs shoes @ $175 e/a. I walk over 4 mi/d. One thing about HOKAS the soles don't last. But I have been spoiled and biased about only buying HOKAS. However, this shoes is as comfortable as any of the HOKAS I own.Second The design is not at attractive nor the colorsas the competition, but hey for the price I bought it, not complaining.Third they do make an annoying noise while walking. Other people have mentioned it. I tend to wear my earbuds so it filters the noise. I bought 2 pairs on my first order because I was afraid that my size was not going to be available. Sure enough within minutes the color and size I wanted were gone a few minutes I ordered themFourth I searched and found they had a similar model that were on sale at even lower price than these, great colors similar to HOKAS. I ordered 2 pairs I haven't gotten them yet. I think HOKA better watch out.Fifth And the most important. I called customer support because I had some questions. What a shock the rep that answered the phone was based in the good USA. NO MANILA PLEASE!!!! I don't intend to learn Tegalog, which boils my blood every time I have to deal with Manila. ( I'm sure I'm not alone)The Customer service rep was professional, willing to answer all my questions. In fact, she went ahead to see if she could find a specific size and color I was looking for. How refreshing. Yes ,I do recommend this brand. Another thing the size is right on, even HOKAS sometimes they use a narrower and smaller patterns requiring to go up one size up. They are very transparent where the shoes as made, unlike other vendors they are not transparent and pretend they are made in the US, duh. In Summary I bought 4 pairs for less than a pair HOKA. A game changer

I didn't have super high expectations for these shoes since they are a clone of a well know brand and style of shoe, but honestly, they are a great pair of shoes! They are very cushioning when wearing and walking in them. They had better side to side support and mid support than my Brook Adrenaline GTS shoes and softer to walk in than my Brooks Ghost Max shoes. Fit and sizing were very good and accurate. Finish on the shoes is pretty nice, but the outside pattern on top of the fabric does feel quite a bit less durable, but the structure of the shoe itself seems to be on par with the name brands. It is also quiet - I didn't notice any sound coming from my footstep in them vs the normal light slap sound of other shoes. I may have just found a new brand...

With the price of Skechers and Shoes for Crews going up and quality/performance not justifying the price, I decided to look for another option. I usually wear Asics for daily use but they don’t make Slip-Resistant shoes. At least not yet. Hoka makes a pair for $200 which isn’t gonna happen. Style:As a bartender I don’t care too much how these look because you can’t see my feet while I’m working. Plus, comfort and function are the main point of these. These look a little goofy because they’re wide and tall. They look like most running shoes. Just taller. Fit:I don’t have wide feet but my feet will tell me if a shoes is narrow right away. These have a wide toe box which doesn’t help the look but feel great. Durability:These take standing in puddles of booze and water and syrups pretty well. Slip resistance is great. They haven’t peeled off or worn down yet. Some other brands peel off. When you first start wearing these your leg muscles, knees, back and feet will be thanking you. You’ll have lots of energy at the end of your shift to power through a restock and cleanup. After a few months, this will change as I think the soles’ degrade and performance drops. Yes, even on these. They’ll still be squishy. They actually become a little too squishy to the point where you have to compensate for the lateral movement. They start to lose their return, if that makes sense. Overall: very good value for the price. I would recommend these to friends and colleagues. I’ll likely buy this brand again in a different style to see how they compare. I dropped it one star for the drop in performance over time. If they lasted longer I would have kept them at 5.

I ordered this in black in a size 10, my normal shoe size. The shoe fit well and was comfortable from the start. It got more comfortable as I wore it. My other walking shoes include Sketchers, Asics and Saucony. Only the Sketchers come close to the comfort of he Nortiv 8 shoes. I ordered another pair to replace the Saucony. I plan on alternating the two pair of Nortiv 8 with the Sketchers and not wearing the other two pair on a regular basis. I was getting pains in my lower back when I was walking; the pain is gone when I walk with these shoes.I can't say anything about the durability after a few days but the shoes do seem to be well made. I noticed that, so far, the laces stay tied without tying a double knot.

These NORTIV 8 sneakers really surprised me with how comfortable and supportive they are. I got them mainly for walking and light workouts, but they’ve easily become my everyday go-to shoes. The cushioning is excellent—soft enough to feel comfortable on long walks but still supportive enough for workouts or even a casual tennis game. The fit is true to size, and they feel lightweight without being flimsy.I also really appreciate the non-slip sole—it grips well on different surfaces, which gives me more confidence during workouts. The style is simple and clean, so they pair well with gym clothes or casual outfits. For the price, they offer great value and performance. If you’re looking for a versatile pair of athletic shoes that are comfortable right out of the box, these are definitely worth trying.
