Selling these, as they didn't fit right.
They're a size 9, and I've worn them once, for about 2 mile, on road.

Item DescriptionThe Nike Free Run+ 2 Shield: Barefoot-like fit with protective edge


Adding lightweight reinforcement to an established running design, the Nike Free Run+ 2 Shield Men's Running Shoe is made to optimise the foot's natural range of motion in a supportive construction. Providing the iconic cushioning and flexibility of Nike Free technology, this shoe is the ultimate in comfort over any distance.


Benefits

•Durable, water-resistent mesh for ventilation and protection from the elements
•Upper reinforced with lightweight, strong synthetic strips for durability and support
•Fused Phylite midsole and outsole for an ultra-lightweight, resilient ride
•Deep flex grooves along the outsole for a natural range of motion and flexibility
Design

An unique upper construction bonds narrow strips of tough, super-thin material directly to water-resistent mesh in key areas for an innovative blend of breathability and support. It's reinforced by a stronger material to boost support and durability where they're essential, while eliminating material where they aren't. The inner-sleeve provides a snug feel, yet it's dynamic enough to move with the natural motion of the foot.


Cushioning

Without sacrificing the feel of barefoot running, the Nike Free Run+ 2 Shield delivers a plush, cushioned ride. Phylite material seamlessly fuses the midsole with the outsole, creating a one-piece design that's as resilient as it is durable. The molded sockliner mimics the curves of the foot for a comfortable, supportive fit.


Flexibility

Deep flex grooves along the outsole allow the foot to move naturally in multiple directions. The heel features a "center of pressure" design that provides additional cushioning on contact, maximising overall flexibility.


Origins

After learning that Stanford athletes had been training barefoot on the university's golf course, three of Nike's most innovative and creative employees set out to develop a shoe that felt natural and weightless, just like bare feet. In 2002, they examined a group of men and women with pressure-measuring insoles taped to their feet, using high-speed cameras to capture images of each foot in motion.


The team spent eight years studying the biomechanics of shoeless running. The results yielded a profound understanding of the foot's natural landing angle, pressure and toe position, allowing Nike designers to build an unconventional and flexible running shoe from the inside out.


Additional Details

•Inner-sleeve for a snug fit and enhanced breathability
•Asymmetrical lacing system to help reduce pressure over the top ridge of the foot
•Waffle lugs at the outsole for impact absorption and traction
•Reflective overlays remain visible in low-light conditions
•Nike+ ready
