How it ranks
The Nike Free RN 2017 is one of the strongest daily trainers in our data. Looks and comfort are its strongest sub-ratings. The rating rests on 3 other rated shoes in the Free RN product line. Another 12 reviews would set the confidence on this shoe's own reviews.
Current estimate: Excellent
Confidence
How settled the rating is against every other rated shoe. A shoe can rate high on confidence with relatively few reviews of its own when its product line has a long record and external ratings from retailer sites agree. Confidence will score low when we have few ratings or when runners disagree.
