Here’s an up-close look.

As you can see, this is a much more refined and sophisticated look as compared to the normal FlexWeave upper on the Reebok Nano 9.
The Reebok Nano 9 Beast Men’s CrossFit Training Shoe has a new Jacquard upper, but it also has all the great features of the regular Nano 9. This is Cold Grey 4 / Cold Grey 7 / Toxic Yellow.
Will this new upper be as durable?
We don’t know for sure yet, but I can tell you this: the outsole and rubber protection wrap on the Reebok Nano 9 is tough as nails.
Here’s Black / True Grey 8 / Toxic Yellow
And that’s where these CrossFit training shoes see the most wear and tear.
Super-tough protection wrap on the Reebok Nano 9 is another part of making this shoe tough.
So, what I’m saying is that I think these will do just fine.
And they look great!
OK, so this woven jacquard upper is what’s new and exciting (and the color options.)
But, let’s tell you all about the special features of the Reebok Nano 9 that are carried forward on this version of the shoe.

The Reebok Nano 9 has a flat outsole with a tread pattern that is focused on traction and grip.
The outsole is made for great grip and traction in the gym.
The outsole is labeled meta split.
Why? It’s a two-piece outsole and Reebok describes it as “Decoupled”.
This maximizes your ability to move and cut in these shoes.
The decoupled (two piece) outsole of the Reebok Nano 9 is labeled "meta split".
The Reebok Nano 9 has regular laces – and a comfortable thick padded tongue.
This helps protect against lace bite.
The Reebok Nano 9 has regular laces and a thickly padded tongue. You can also see that these are very wide shoes – and that makes them great for people with wide feet.
Here’s your dark option – Black / True Grey 8 / Toxic Yellow. You can see it is labeled "CrossFit" – because this is the official CrossFit shoe for 2020.
Here’s all the photos – enjoy!
