Just finished my workout with the 7.0 Frees. I have to say they are a really nice workout shoe. I could see where people with wide feet would find them uncomfortable. They are designed to basically wrap your foot as closely as possible. I guess this means Nike had to go with the most common foot width.

They are much flatter on the heel than I thought they would be. Going from my NB 989s I almost fell back a couple times while squatting. Grip and energy transfer to the floor was good. I'm still wearing them after the workout just b/c they really are that comfortable. My only complaint is that they don't seem to breath as well as I thought they would. This could just be a consequence of the fact that they are designed to fit your foot so snugly.
