Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 39 Running Shoe

Let’s take a look at the latest Nike Metcon 7 styles. Metcon 7 is Nike’s most advanced and the most versatile Metcon yet. It is a cross-training shoe that provides a better range of motion and extends much better cushioning than standard weightlifting shoes for CrossFit or Olympic weightlifting. Get these from Rogue Fitness: Nike Metcon 7 – Overview Metcon 7 is an advancement from the previous versions and represents the new gold standard in weight training. It is more solid and now uses the React foam for excellent comfort and lock-down lace tabs to stop untying during high-intensity training. This shoe has a wide, flat, and flexible heel with an inner plate and disperses weight from edge to edge for enhanced stability. The updated rubber wraps along the arch show better traction on rope climbs. The forefoot is a significant change with its four deep flex grooves, including one that splits the whole outsole while allowing the midsole to be seen. This makes better forefoot so you can do any exercise that lands on your toes. The rubber tread [Read more …]

The Nike React Metcon was just released in November 2019, but Nike is already making some new colorways available. Here’s the Nike React Metcon in white. What’s React? It is Nike’s reactive foam cushioning system. For the React Metcon, it’s a drop-in midsole that works in conjunction with the regular outsole – which is the same as that of the Metcon 5. The React Metcon also uses FlyKnit – that is a yarn-like knit material that allows Nike to make a seamless, one piece upper. It’s not as lightweight as the FlyKnit in the React running shoe line from Nike, as it is double layer instead of single. But, it’s still pretty good. The Nike React Metcon doesn’t have laces – instead it uses Nike’s quick pull system.

Nike recently release the Nike React Metcon – this shoe takes all the great WOD features of the Metcon 5 and combines them with a FlyKnit upper, quick close lacing system, and Nike’s React foam in the midsole. And now they have launched an AMP colorway. What’s the AMP line? Well, it’s a little more expensive, but you get some wild, out-there designs and patterns. And these will even glow in the dark. Let’s have a look. The Nike React Metcon AMP has all the same stability and traction from the Metcon 5. But the real improvement here is the React foam – this is Nike’s most comfortable cushioning. It is soft and springy and provides reactive energy return With FlyKnit providing a breathable upper, this is a winning combination for CrossFit enthusiasts or anyone else into functional fitness training. Here’s another cool feature – this shoe has a glow-in-the-dark rubber sole! Just like the Nike Metcon 5 – the outsole climbs up the side of the shoe for durability and extra grip during rope climbs (aka the “rope wrap”.) [Read more …]
