adidas Men's Questar Flow Nxt Running Shoe

Little tip on these shoes for the weird design choice of the lace straps - ***buy elastic laces***. Not only do they make every shoe fit better, but they don't exert the same force on the lace holes as traditional laces, so you shouldn't have a problem with the strap breaking.Couple things:1. The shoe I ordered was not the same as pictured. The picture has black/charcoal, plus hot red/coral stripes. The one I received had black stripes but with the hot red lace holes/straps. Not a bad looking shoe, but not what I was looking for.2. I have this same exact shoe but in true red with black stripes that I bought back in 2020. They've been awesome shoes that I've worn sparingly because I like them so much I want to keep them for awhile, and I doubt they bring those back. They're super comfortable for casual wear and lots of standing or walking. I'm athletic build - 5'9" @ 172 lbs, and the cushion is great. I don't run in these or workout, they're fine for a quick sprint or two, but I wouldn't buy these for running, they're not meant for that.On that note about my old pair - this shoe I just received is...different. So much so that I wasn't sure if it was authentic. I think it is now after looking around, but I'm still only like 85% sure.The foam insert for the insole says Cloudfoam on it, but my 2020's don't. OK fine, model upgrade, right? Yeah....but the one's on Adidas's current website don't say Cloudfoam, they just say ADIDAS - same as my '20 red ones. But they do say "Cloudfoam comfort" on the product description on the website. So it could be an older photo? OK...but they don't list this color combination (all black/charcoal with hot red lace loops) as an option. Also, this color option is very hard to find outside of Amazon. I checked Academy Sports, Famous Footwear, DICK's, and a handful of other reputable sites, and the only other place I found them was eBay. Not exactly a strong case for authenticity. So I'm really not sure what to think, but I'm not a professional shoe detective either...Those things wouldn't matter except for these shoes just aren't as comfortable as my 2020's. The foam insert isn't as comfortable, and I just vividly remember the "aahhhh" pillow comfort feeling of my 2020's when I slipped them on in the store. These were much more firm as far as my memory can tell.So I returned them. They're still fine if you love the color combo.

I first started using this brand model a couple of years back switching from another brand model which was discontinued. I wear size 10 but many brands I take a standard width and others need a wide width for the toe base area. So this one fits good but wish the ankle area was a bit tighter.I have brought this brand model 3 times so I guess I can say if the price is right for you it may be a good choice. I typically beat up my shoes walking, working in the garden, etc. after about 5 months the exterior sole tread wears off at the ball and heal of the foot. The interior of the sole has never worn out before I decide the shoe is just too dirty or scored and scratched when I replace.The color is vibrant, the laces are strong and the shoe stays in place with various activities.My first pair of this shoe was black and around 6 month after original purchase I wore outside in the sun 21 days straight. When I returned home from the outdoor trip these looked a little faded. I bought a new pair and could really tell the mesh fabric faded a lot compared to the new pair. So the old pair turned into the garden shoes.I do have to say two pairs I bought at discount around $30 but one pair seemed full price around $80. So in the future I will watch for the discounted price but will buy again as long as available.

I admittedly have a narrow foot, and I wanted to try something besides the Nikes I've worn for years. These are well-made and attractive shoes, but they simply don't fit my feet well. While the overall width and toe box were workable (with an insole), the heel cap allows them to slide up and down on my heels. So sadly, I had to return them.I dinged them a few stars for fit, but for most people they will probably be fine. Sorry adidas.

Bought these shoes for work and I am really happy with it. Really light, good looking comfortable shoes. It doesn't really conform to my soles like my last Nike runners, but it's so soft that I don't mind. My only minor issue with the shoe is the thin rubber soles. The grooves on mines are a bit worn down already and I haven't even wore it that much. I'm gonna have to be careful walking on slippery surfaces. I gave it 4 out 5 stars. If they still sell it for Under $75 it's worth purchasing it.

It is an excellent shoes, perfect for running, the model is exclatly like the photo.

Thought these were slip ons, the picture tricked me. They work and look good.

Showed up on time, and fit good and a good price.

General, casual, everyday walking around.

Fits true to size. Very light. Very comfortable.

Not eorth it for vopies

It fits perfectly!

My son is very happy with these.

This shoe broke the second time I tied it up. Terribly designed grommets. Avoid.
