Fashion nonsense

Good cushioning, but perhaps a little too soft. Fit was good, once I found the right size (not my usual).
They lack serious support for over-pronators - this is about the only 'support' shoe left in the Nike range and it hasn't got any. The dynamic nonsense is not 'new' - a similar thing was tried by many in the 80s. It wasn't very good then, either. Durability is also poor - on a par with Asics (whose support shoes, coincidentally, also only work for very mild pronators).
Okay, if you aren't aware of any proper running brands, but Nike is all about being all things to all men, so they dilute their brand with fashion and other sports. Result is a shoe that looks good and you can customise colours, but doesn't offer what majority of runners need. Only good for neutral runners.

Like slippers

The Lunar Glide 4 is my second pair of running shoes having owned an old pair of Asics for five years.

I cannot believe the difference they have made: in two runs I have shaved two minutes of my average time per mile and can run further without any aches or pains.

I would really recommend them to any mild/ moderate over-pronators out there.

I didn't get the "shield" version and the airflow is amazing around my foot, not sure if that would be different on the shield versions?
They come up small, so order a whole size larger than your everyday shoe.

Some of the colour schemes are trully appalling! Ha!

The soles are very lightweight and lack some rubber where I would expect them to have some. I don't think they have a chance of lasting as long as my Asics - maybe this is a good thing!?
Great shoes; comfortable and affordable

Nice snug fit, responsive and light. A faster shoe than I expected.

Flexible
Heel-to-toe drop akes strain off lower leg
Very comfortable
Could possibly be tight for people with real high arched feet?
First pair of Nike runners I've worn apart from Nike Frees. Impressive shoe!

Easy to wear

Comfortable, no rubbing at all, look good, lightweight.
I think that they lack the support that you get from asics around the side of the foot.
Nice running shoe at a good price. You can't really go wrong with Nike to be honest.

Very comfortable pair of trainers

Light and well supported. Very quick to 'bed in' and had no rubbing or problems with them. Good support given and very pleased with the purchase. Now the price is reduced even further in Jan 2013 and well worth the buy.
None
Very pleased with these trainers which were identified using the RW shoe guide. A good price and very comfortable to wear. Ran my first 5 mile race after wearing them around the house for a day - had no problems with the fit or any rubbing.
