You get all of the style, none of the effort. It's time for some Calm.
- Soft yet responsive foam provides amazing comfort and dries quickly-no matter where your day takes you.
- Subtle texture pattern on the footbed adds grip so your feet stay in place.
- Full-length rubber outsole gives you traction and durability.

Thank you for being honest here. I watched a couple of other reviews praising these slides. I slipped these on and placed them right back in the box and mailed them back. I was super disappointed in the feel and almost no comfort. On my return I told Nike to try again and use Zoomx foam. I will credit Nike with those slides lasting a while. Between the bottoms being durable and not getting use due to being uncomfortable, they will last forever in a closet.

Man....I'm sorry. I try to stay out of comments but the slide bashing was too much. I watched this review and try it yourself. Some others on here all just d riding without giving them a shot. I just got mines and tried them on. They are great. They are definitely comfortable. Don't get what people are saying they are not. And they are not yzy knock offs. How many ways can you make a slide. Stop it. My wife first impression was AF1. I see more of that than yzy slides. I went up 1 size due to wide feet and they felt great! 12 to a 13. I have yzy slides, sneakers, nike slides and jordans, so my opinion isn't bias. These actually look better to me. I never like the wavy bottoms of yzy slides. Also, if I can't get it for retail I'm not getting it. Paying 100+ for slides is ridiculous. Bought all 3 colorways of these for less than 170. That's a steal. Either way stop the hate and try something new.

Anyone reading this, have you tried the new Airmax one slides? I really want that pair but I feel like it’s just going to be an instant return because there won’t be enough width for me.

I just got the echo slide in and honestly I don't like them. Sure they are comfortable (step-in) but thats all they got going for them. 1) These are highly unstable and dangerous (feels narrowish). 2) When walking and foot is lifted, the foot falls off the slide (hence why they came out with a strap) The fact that you can seriously twist your ankle EASILY makes this a terrible slide. Unless it needs some time to break-in and flatten out or widen itself out i do not recommend. Maybe should have gone the mellow slide route or try out the Costco slide. But for now, yeezy slides are probably the best. Most expensive but they literally have no cons besides finding the right size.

Nah L take He's kicks Copped these and they're fire. Yes yeezy slides are softer yet yeezy slides are almost TOO soft. Really easy to feel like you're going to roll your ankle in those and the tread wears away super fast. Comparatively the calms have a really nice solid tread and sole, they're durable af and they're still comfortable without feeling like you're going to roll your ankle because the cushioning is too extra soft like yeezys. The calms are excellent. If you're feeling pressure in the balls of your feet with the calms then you're flat footed. My feet are arched so I don't have that problem. With the calms you're also going to want to size up from your tts since they run small. If you have narrow feet you can go tts. People also keep saying "they're stiff out the box" again, they weren't stiff for me, they were quite comfortable yet solid feeling on foot, sturdy. And also once you break them in a bit the comfort only goes up. Got the calms in black and getting them in sesame/khaki next and also eyeing those red ones. Calms are fire and I prefer them over my yeezy slides (which are discontinued anyway) y'all keep sleeping on these calm greatness.
