Nike Metcon 8 training shoes are the best crossfit sneakers I have ever had. The side gripping is perfect for rope climbing. The shoes are flat and perfect for lifting. My feet have cramped in so many shoes and these cause no issues. I have a wide foot, but the normal width fits perfect, i would recommended going up a size if you have an extra wide foot though. Love the color, they are a light grayish purple. Great quality Highly recommend

The Nike Metcon 8s are superb trainers. They check all of the boxes I look for in a workout shoe- style, support, and function.Design: The design is perfect for me. It strikes a balance of being classic yet fresh. The design is creative and unique while not being garish or overdone. It’s a chic shoe that would get compliments in the gym as well as picking up a latte or having an after-workout brunch with the girls. I would say I like the design most but I also really appreciate the support the shoe provides.Fit and feel: For me the Metcon 8s are true to size. They grip my foot without being too tight.

I think an insert would make the shoes too tight so there’s no workaround for that.Comfortability: I would definitely wear these to work out, participate in a fitness class, or go for a run. They are not shoes I would wear for a full day of walking, attending an outdoor concert, or comfortable lounging. The Metcons 8 are great for what they’re made for- athletic activity but they are not for ath-leisure.Overall I would rate the Metcon 8s a 4 out of 5. They are a solid shoe and I am glad to have them. Shoes make a huge difference in the quality of a workout and these are a good choice

These shoes are literally the best for weightlifting. I didn’t expect that it would be such a gamechanger - feet are balanced and stable. Having a knee injury in the past, I still felt a bit of discomfort in my knee on my leg days, but in these I did not have any pain, as the legs are fully supported and the shoes help to perform the exercises in a correct standing position. I usually wear size 8-8.5 and 8 fits well.

The Nike Metcom 8 not only look good but feel and perform better than expected.The Metcom8 have a breathable yet supportive design. They are standard fit and would not be geared towards someone with a wider foot. They have excellent grip on all surfaces. They appear and feel very durable but the trade off comes in the form of comfort but that’s only affected during extended periods of use while standing/walking otherwise they are great.
This shoe is very sturdy - almost too stiff at first. But it loosens up with a few wearings. I don't like the velcro tab that the shoelace is supposed to be tied under, though. The shoelace sticks to the velcro and is annoyingly difficult to avoid. Very good looking shoe overall.
Bought them for training as needed some new gym trainers. Was slightly sceptical before I got them as I thought they may have had a bit of give in the heal, but they don't feel to do. They are fantastic for training legs. And once you get used to them after a couple of wears they are pretty good for cardio also. If your used to a Nike Air type trainer though these are not that. They feel flat when u walk, hence why they are ace for training legs. Feel a little snug on the feet which I like when training but not everyone will so just be aware.
I started strength training last year so wanted to get these as they came highly recommended. Unfortunately, considering the brand, they seemed like they missed a few steps during quality control. With glue being visible and was clearly worn - found some stops and dirt underneath.The brand also suggests they are good for doing some cardio as well but I don’t think I’d be able to with the cushioning being fairly minimal and firm.Okay, but returned them because I wanted something a little robust that’s was also suitable for light cardio.
The shoes run small. I consider my foot to be skinny and narrow and the shoes still fit me tight. The issue with the shoe is the tongue. The tongue is squishy, takes up too much room and moves too much. The shoes are so tight on my foot that I don’t have to lace them to walk. I definitely don’t recommend for wide feet. I normally wear a size 6 women but I think I should have got a size 7 instead. The two things I liked about the shoes were the reflective material used on the outside and the Velcro lace lock on the tongue. Other than that they run too small and the heels are very stiff. The shoe isn’t flexible to have long walks or run with.
Received a pair of Metcon 8, my pair in this series and overall it's a great pair of training kicks. I've been wearing them for about 2 weeks now while I'm working. I do a lot of walking, bending down, kneeling, getting and out of tall/large vehicle and squatting while I go about my work day of 10 hours, 4 days a week, and no complaints so far. I will admit I was surprised by how comfortable they would be, was worried about the flat & hard soles of the shoes not being comfortable, and I worried for nothing. They also have really great grip & traction. My main use for them will be gor work but I could see these being used at the gym. Overall very happy with them.
Great fit. I bought for weight training and running and can really feel difference in my form.I was unsure if 3.5 would work but actually are great fit a, 3 would have been too snug and 4 would have been looseThey are not water proof so wouldn't wear and about purely for gym use.However, they look nice but wouldn't be comfortable for long wear.
