Support & compression4.7
These shoes clearly are a high end shoe based on the construction. Stretchy fabric upper provides a great feel of compression for the foot. Fit is highly supportive but comfortable. Takes a bit to put the shoe on as the upper opening is smaller but once you get your toes in, the shoe stretches on with your fingers in the back support. My favorite UA shoes.

Lightweight & breathability4.5
By far the best running shoes I think I've ever tried on. They're comfy, but not overly comfy, with great stability. And the toe box is PERFECT. Not too wide, not too narrow. It literally fits like a sock it's so true to my size. The flyknit material conforms to my foot when I run, and it's very flexible, making all of my steps feel natural. Of course, with the react technology, it adds that extra Halen · store.nike.com
