Just called my local Nike clearance store
They didn't have any in but said they do get them in. They're normally £45 he said. Gonna call up regularly and see if they have any in stock before I decide to keep the ones I've just ordered.

yes that sound about right, ive seen them for a few different prices... when stuff goes on the back wall they have extra promotions on like extra 30% off back wall or extra 50%.... I got mine off back wall with extra 30% to make them £34

Since there can be a noticeable difference between different footwear from the same manufacturer I don't believe those findings.
And as someone that shops in Aldi and has had their sports footwear in my hand I can say their stock changes so even if the findings were correct how would anyone know they were purchasing the right model? And I would actually say that all the ones I've seen were at best equal quality to a level of branded shoe that could be picked up from a factory outlet or TK maxx clearance section for less money,
From my own experience, a general rule would be that Aldi and Lidl non food goods are around the same quality as budget items from superstore type stores (e.g.Tesco, Asda, B&Q) but a slightly better 'bargain'. Their stuff still does have a habit of not having a long life though: I've found this out the hard way through purchases. In particular I bought one of my sons a pair of school shoes that lasted less than a week once he started wearing them.

My 5.0's are one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I've ever worn.

Got a link to that?
I highly doubt it to be honest.
I've seen loads of these tests and they always end with the runner taking them off because they're causing too much damage and are too poorly made.

Enfield is pretty good. The Nike outlet in Hatfield is terrible though.
Got a few pairs of size 9-9.5, always have loads of sizes in.

Would recommend half a size up in these if you want to actually run in them/ sports activities for that snug fit. Should go a full size up if you want to wear them casually.

A recently broadcast TV consumer program had a Testing laboratory carry out a number of comparative tests on Branded Running shoes against those purchased from Aldi (£20) one of the branded pairs cost nearly £100.
The tests proved that there was no benefit in paying more than the Aldi ones cost.

No chance.
Good luck running any distance in a pair of Aldi trainers; They would destroy your feet.

Wife has the lady's model - can recommend, great pair for spring/summer, and way more durable than many think.

And also take into account people that need differing levels of support in their trainers/shoes...The experienced 'Brands' win hands down

The Nike Free 4.0s are routinely in the Outlets.
I picked up two pairs for £36 each not that long ago.

Any further discount codes? Not a blazing deal as is imo as the Nike Factory Outlets have these cheaper when they have a sale on!

40% off one of the most popular trainers of the present time, which have never been in an outlet.
Look at deal for what it is. Not how it compares to something completely different.
