That deep, boot like tread is meant for mud. It’s labeled "anti-clog traction" as it won’t collect mud.
From the heel you can see the pull tabs – these are necessary to make it easier to put these on – as they should fit tightly.
There’s a rope wrap section of outsole that wraps up around the midfoot – just like most of the other metcon shoes.
From the top you can see the overall form factor of these shoes.
From the side view you can see the gaiter – this tight fitting elastic comes up high on your ankle. Why? To keep out mud, sticks, rocks and other debris.
See that tread? This is like a boot. But you can also see the water draining ports – and that is a very unique feature on this shoe.
The speed lacing system lets you make quick adjustments – and there are no laces to get clogged with mud! There is also a pocket to protect the quick clip.

Let’s take a look at Nano X1 in Camo. Whether you jump, climb, run, or throw the barbell, the Nano X1 is made for any workout. Also known as the all-around shoe, the Nano X1 is not only great for CrossFit exercises, but it also performs well for high-intensity interval training, plyometrics, and explosive movements like box jump. Here’s some of the styles we are going to look at: Nano X1 in Camo – Overview One of the changes made in Nano X1 is the upper that now uses the Flexweave Knit.
