![]() I feel like I am already stretching them out by having my feet slide within the shoes. It is just like rubber bands keeping the shoes on while you run because there are no laces. I am not sure how long the tightness will last to keep the shoes on. I already see signs of wear on the bottom after just two weeks and about 30 miles. The shoes do not seem very durable as opposed to other road running shoes out there. There is a nice ride, and you can feel like you could run a long distance at a fast pace until something else prevents you. The shoe grips well and feels really good running straight on roads, especially on hard, dry surfaces. You will never have to worry about your shoes coming untied during a run. The first thing you notice is the laceless design. The Nike React Phantom Run Flyknit 2 looks great and pretty stylish. My feet slid in the shoe to the outside, and it felt like the bottom of my feet were touching the side of the shoe and not the bottom. You could really roll an ankle because of the slippage. At the turn, my feet seemed to slide, and my outside ankle turned outward. I ran a course with 90 degree turns to see how they hold up. ![]() I never felt the shoe was going to come off. I ran about 1000 vertical feet up in few miles to see how the shoes are running uphill. Anyway, I would not recommend these shoes for long-distance runs. The shoe is, however, the first running shoes I have tried without shoelaces. I have run with many different running shoes from brands like ASICS, Adidas, Brooks, and Saucony. I generally do not get blisters in my shoes when I run. Without socks, even when walking, you can feel the back of your heel rub against the rough back of the shoe. You may think it will work without a sock, but I would strongly recommend wearing socks with the shoe. ![]() The Phantom Run Flyknit 2 has no tongue and shoelaces. By the time I finished, both backs of my heels were bloody. The pain started to get worse the longer I ran. I wore socks on the run, but I could still feel the back of my heel rubbing against the rough back of the shoe. I completed a 12-mile run with the shoe at around a comfortable 8 minute per mile pace, but it was not without some pain. The Phantom Run Flyknit 2 is NOT comfortable at all
