First and foremost I’d like to mention that the Metcon 7 does run small and I recommend going a half size up. I can confidently say that the Metcon 7 is the best all-around training shoe to date. The construction is of high quality and is very durable. I loved the designed and color combination. The highlight green really stands out but it is not too flashy. My workouts consists of 50% cardio and 50% weight training and I do not recommend these for long runs or any sport that requires a lot of running. On the weight room it is a different story. They were perfect for squatting, weighted lunges, deadlifts, etc. You get more balance and thus optimizing your reps. This shoe was a game changer that I don’t even mind taking an extra pair of shoes for my cardio on the side.

I had been looking for some new gym shoes and the Nike Metcon 7 Training Shoes are just what I needed! I lift weights 5 days a week. Often during lifts, I find my feet not feeling firmly planted on the ground, or have too much room inside different shoes. However, that is not the case with the Nike Metcon 7 Training Shoes. When I first put them on I noticed how perfectly snug they felt-- but not too tight. When performing lifts my feet feel as if they are affixed to the ground. I love the lace lock feature, keeping the laces in place and preventing them from becoming untied. The quality seems to be on par with what you would expect from Nike, I safely expect them to last a long time. If you are looking for a solid pair of shoes to complement your training, I highly ... MoreI had been looking for some new gym shoes and the Nike Metcon 7 Training Shoes are just what I needed!

I bought these shoes three weeks ago and really enjoy them. They're a good all around gym shoe and aren't uncomfortably rigid. I've walked in them indoors for about 2hr each day and have hit legs 4-5 times in them so far. I looked at the bottoms today and was super bummed to see that they're already wearing down on the heels. The heel has just a very thin rubber layer below the plastic structure so that's not a good indicator that they'll be an effective shoe for very long.The mesh has held up fine so far and surprisingly the velcro patch above the laces hasn't beat the laces up too badly yet (they just get caught on it when you tie your shoes).4.5 star shoe for me, but wearing out this quickly I could not buy another pair in good conscience, hence the 2 stars.
