Thanks to Deal Hunter Navy-Wife for finding this deal.
This version (V3) of the Invincible is not as bouncy as the previous versions. It's considered a failed shoe. Lots of negative reviews and comments on social media.

ASICS Gel Nimbus 25 is an all around better shoe. The 26 is out, no big changes, so you can get the 25 on a deal. ASICS had them for $120 with $20 off code but that expired.
I agree i been seeing lots of negative reviews especially with the shoe causing heel slippage. I would wait for the V4's which should be coming out by spring/summer. Or get a better shoe like some Asics.
Yeah I only ran in them once for like 6 miles or something and the heel slipping was really bad even with doing the runner's knot and sizing half a size down. Performance wise I don't know how much of a difference it really made but it was too annoying to buy. Maybe it's one of those things you would just get used to with time?
The Vomero 17 is a much better shoe with ZoomX foam. Vomero is a lot more stable and the lockdown is more secure. However, it's a bit ugly and the heel counter was a bit too tall for my ankle bone.
Is this good for long walks of heavy person (210 lbs)?
Im 210 lbs and they are perfect. The most comfortable shoes I've own. And I have owned too many shoes over the years. I have almost every colorway of the Invincible 3's and a couple of the Invincible 2s.
I have these shoes in wide sizing. The heel slippage is real but can be somewhat fixed with a runners knot. YT it so you know what to do. With that said, the ASICS gel nimbus 25 is far superior in comfort. My new balance fresh foam more v4 is also more comfortable. The Nike is not bad but there are better shoes available based on my experience. This is a great price but not available in wide sizing.
Infinity is more like a mid-range running shoe using React foam, these Invincibles use the top range ZoomX foam.

These are the most comfortable sneakers I've ever owned. I walk a lot in an office/warehouse environment and these have been great.
I'm a self-proclaimed shoe enthusiast, boasting a collection that spans dozens of pairs. It's all because I clock in a daily 3-4 miles, sticking faithfully to the 300-400 mile rule for the lifespan of my trusty running shoes. Among the bunch, these are the ones that cradle my feet like a cloud. As someone else said, it's like almost like cheating.
Invincible 3's were a major disappointment for me coming from 1 and 2. The major issue was the heel area not holding your heel in place so you get heel lift. This is super annoying and it feels like the shoe is slipping out. I had to do a major research and bought 7 different shoes to try, to find a suitable replacement. In the end I settled on New Balance Supercomp trainer v1's and the ASICS gel nimbus 25, which are both superb max stack height recovery shoes in their own right. I'm pretty disappointed in Nike tho how they really bombed the 3's this much.

You cant really compare this shoe to the react or pegasus. Lol gotta compare it to something like the 1080 nb or asics.

I am 207 and have no issues with long walks in these.
A few negative comments but I've had them since Xmas and haven't had any issues. Pretty comfortable and bouncy to my flat feet. I sized up .5
