Last week, Nike launched some new colorways (color combinations) for their Nike Metcon Sport shoe.
The Nike Metcon Sport is part of the “Metcon” line of shoes – that’s code for “CrossFit”.
These shoes are cross trainers – and they let you lift, run, jump, and more.
What’s the new styles?
Here we have String/Dark Smoke Grey/Pale Ivory.
Nike Metcon Sport – It’s the agility cross training shoe from Nike.
It’s a slip-fit shoe – with no laces, but the midfoot strap keeps things secure.
The Nike Metcon Sport have a comfortable fit and feel. Not only are they great for agility, but they are very comfortable as well.
The midfoot strap uses a hook and loop (aka Velcro) closure. This let’s you dial in the right amount of security.
From the heel view, you can see the pull tabs on the heel and throat – these help you put the shoes on easily.
The Nike Metcon Sport has a much more aggressive tread as compared to the other shoes in the Nike Metcon line. This makes it a great shoe for drills on grass or turf.
Nike says “STABILITY TO LIFT HEAVY AND CUT HARD.”
The other great thing about these shoes is that they are only $100 or so.
That’s much cheaper than the other shoes in the line.
Another great colorway that has just debuted is Black/Thunderstorm/White/Total Orange.
That deep tread outsole is color coordinated with the upper – not that anybody will see it much!
Nike Metcon Sport in Black/Thunderstorm/White/Total Orange is a bold, but versatile color combination.
Nike’s swoosh logo is present – but is minimal.
The drop-in midsole can be seen from the top view. It wraps up high around the sides of your feet – to ensure it doesn’t move when you cut hard.
The stretchy mesh fits comfortably and is breathable.
Tighten the midfoot strap as much, or as little, as you like. The fit is customizable.
Here’s a good side shot of that aggressive tread on the bottom. The Nike Metcon line are largely meant to be use indoors – but the Sport has more tread depth than the others. It should work on grass and turf.
The Nike Metcon Sport is lacking the prominent "rope wrap" found on other Nike Metcon shoes. This is OK, because few people really do rope climbs.
The heel to toe drop on the Nike Metcon Sport is minimal – as it is for most of the metcon line. This means versatility.
