These are my favorite running shoes ever! Of course I have a pretty narrow foot so the fit is great. Peg is too wide for me. I have found them to hold up well and have done several 10k's in them. Love them!

great ride out of the box. Horrible lifespan though, died on me after 125 mi's. the ride became jarring and the forefoot cushioning non-existent. Not worth the cash.

Have to agree with Billabong. The new Skylon is FAR superior in every way. My new fav shoe! I'm already worried about the replacement in July. I got a peek of it. Looks different. and NOT in a good way. Darn! here we go again. You find a shoe. Please Nike! STOP!!! leave a perfect shoe alone for o...

I agree wih Saab Willy,,,I have been runnig since I am 7, ran my first marathon @ 11 and ran the Sahara Desert Marathon of Sables 10 years ago.....The best runnng shoes ever is the OLD hayward..Please NIKE, bring hem back. I brought the new hayward, its ok,but for short distanc.. Plese bring b...

I was extemely disappointed that Nike discontinued the most comfortable running shoe of all time, the old Hayward. I was excited that the Skylon was the next generation, but after running in them for about 50 miles, I find they are not nearly as comfortable. The cushioning is good, but not as good a...

I'm a slight framed, narrow feet runner. Use these for both tempo work and and base building miles....nothing but good things for me. Interchange them with Saucony Tangents....great shoe to train in.

RRS's spec for "performance neutral" deals with high arches and small-mid frame and has nothing to do with narrow feet. These shoes are unusually narrow so beware.

My feet are fairly narrow and these are really tight. I couldn't run more than 5 minutes in these. These might work well for extremely narrow feet.

Great shoe never had any problems. Good for speedwork and to race in.

These are "PERFORMANCE NEUTRAL" shoes!!! They're meant for small, light-weight, competitive runners with high arches and narrow feet. I'm not saying that larger runners can't be competitive, I'm simply saying when you're shopping for shoes buy shoes that fit your feet!

This upadates earlier comment and supports others. Beware - over time these turned out to be so narrow as to cause recurrence of plantar faciitis. The Hayward they're not.

The best shoe i have evere worn they only weigh 9.5 ounces and you can run up to 20km in them as they have such good cushioning

After wearing-out 4 pairs of Haywards I was disgusted but not surprised that Nike discontinued them. Whenever I find a show that I really like Nike changes it, or deletes it from their line-up. Think of the Pegasus! So I bought a pair of Skylons. It is significantly firmer than the Hayward, and ...

As I have started to accumulate some miles on these shoes, I have also noted that the fit is a bit more snug than the Haywards. They also seem a bit longer in the toe box. Fortunately for me this actually improves the fit.

i'd hoped these would be a good replacement for the hayward. they are not. these shoes are so narrow my feet hurt and i'm unable to run in them. also, they don't allow the same freedom of movement for my feet that the hayward gave. beware if your feet are medium to wide.

great shoe so comfortable that you barely know its on your foot, i bought these after i had the asics GT-2120 and couldnt run further than 4km without getting blistes all over my feet this shoe i ran that same course and didnt need to stop and did the whole 6km blister free

Why does Nike persist in making shoes that feel great but are so narrow that they won't fit those of us with normal Size D feet? They've been doing it for years! Back they go to RRS.

Sun, October 21,2007:
This shoe does run narrow but is very light and breathes quite well. The cushioning of the zoom air isn't really noticeable in the store but once your foot warms up the shoe it is very apparent. This is the best shoe I've ever had besides a pair of basketball shoes that had zoom air along with a f...

I am just breaking in my first pair of these updated shoes. The Skylon seems much like the Haywards. The fit is somewhat different, maybe slightly longer in the toebox. My toes seem to have a bit more room. Overall I like the fit, and the cushioning and weight seem just like my old favorite Hayw...

Compared to the Hayward, a much more narrow fit in the forefoot/toebox area. Had to send back.
