    Only my second pair of flats but I have had a great experience with this shoe. I have owned them for one year and done almost every interval workout, tempo, and race in them. Workourts encompassing 200s to 3x3mi to 10kTempo. Races were 2xHM 2x10M, 4x1mi, 7x5k, and 2x5mi. Totaling around 300 miles with no indication I will need to retire them anytime soon. They were probably not enough suppoer for the hilly HM (feet hurt) but I had no issues with the other races and workouts. I set PRs in every race distance mentioned above but the 5 Milers in these shoes.

    Love this shoe for speedwork and casual wear, very light and aesthetically appealing. Upper came detached after 200 miles.

    This shoe for me is literally as good as it gets.

    The fabric on the upper stretches out and has a sock-life fit, accommodating many foot shapes. The toebox is wide and the whole shoe is well-shaped, being even more comfortable than Altra's without even looking like clown shoes. The shoe is really lightweight and looks good on feet, making it even suitable for casual wear.

    The only downsides of it are that it's a racing flat so it's not the most durable (lasted 300 Miles for me), and it's a racing flat so there isn't as much cushioning as most people would like (though I did run mileage in this shoe).

    I wore this shoe before my first XC season, inevitably getting crucified by my coach for training in racing flats. Overall, the absolute best shoe I have ever worn. 10/10 would recommend.

    I bought these shoes 4 months ago, and have raced one road 5K in them, as well as done a few track workouts in them, they are holding up well and are the perfect balance for a fast trainer to use on the track instead of spikes.

    While this shoe fits great and is comfortable, I wish it had a little more cushioning. I used it as a daily trainer and would really feel rocks and roots while running on trails. They only held up for around 200 miles until the outdoor ripped.

    This shoe is amazing for how much it costs. I have used it 2-3 times a week for some tempos and speed work. The shoe has never failed me even in wet conditions, the waffle outsole is very grippy on the roads, grass and the track.

    I love the Streak LT3. Having worn each of its predecessors, I can say this is a substantial update and a very different feeling shoe, but it is 110% better. The best way I can describe it is that it feels like a track spike for the roads. Firm, but with enough cushioning for 10k on the roads (and beyond, for efficient runners), this is the perfect shoe for cross country races with a lot of pavement, or road races of any distance. It is also durable enough to hold up to multiple seasons of track workouts. I hope no one from Nike reads this, but I have no idea why they sell this shoe for such a low price - this is an awesome shoe! Only thing worth noting - I had to go up a half size for this shoe compared to other Nike shoes I have worn (Pegasus, Vomero, Elite, previous versions of the Streak and Streak LT). Other than going up a half size, they fit perfectly.

    Like the fit and it feels very sharp and speedy when I have them on. Nice spring and follow thru is more controlled . Impact is fore foot with nice recoil. Adheres to most all terrain except ice.

    The Streak LT3 is a good flat, but is very aggressive as far as flats go. Great for races up to 10k, but unless you do a large amount of training in flats/low cushion trainers, I wouldn't recommend racing anything longer than 10k. I typically do one track session per week wearing these shoes, and they are great for longer repeats such as 1,000m or a mile, and are versatile enough they they are very effective for short sprint intervals too. The upper could do a better job locking the foot down, but this isn't a major issue unless you are going around tight turns such as on an undersized indoor track.
