Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

Lots of testers agree that the Nike Shox TL sneakers are comfortable on foot, even for standing and walking all day long.
Changed from a high-grade plastic (similar to that used in car bumpers) to a polyurethane-based material, but it’s still extremely durable. And with full-length Shox cushioning, this version has a smoother, more forgiving ride than the previous Shox models, which had a standard foam midsole in the forefoot.

What reviewers didn't like

Compared to most Nike sneakers, the Nike Shox TL sneakers are expensive. Some are disappointed that the insoles of this shoe are not removable.
Some still feel it lacks overall stability. Heavy.
