That refers to a special weaving process by which the pattern is woven into the material.
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!

Now that the Nike Metcon 6 is out – the Metcon 5 is getting hard to find – but Rogue Fitness still has the Metcon 5 for sale. Here’s a close-up look at Nike’s most stable and durable Metcon shoe yet – The Nike Metcon 5 for Women. This is Black/White/University Red/Metallic Gold (Style: AO2982-076), and it looks sweet. Not only is it stable and durable, it is also the most tuned Metcon training shoe yet. What do you get with the Nike Metcon 5 for women? It has specific stability for heavy lifting (squats, deadlifts, and Oly lifting). But it also has traction made for speed, and durability where you need it – thanks to it’s “zoned” durability. There’s also a small drop-in wedge called a “Hyperlift”. This insert (which is also compatible with all prior versions of the Metcon) will give you an additional 6mm of heel to toe drop (for a total of 10mm in the women’s shoe.) What are these good for? Think heel raise for easier squats, wall balls, and pistols. This is your secret [Read more …]

Let’s celebrate the launch of a new color combo of the Nike Free x Metcon 2 in Valerian Blue/Photon Dust/Black/Vivid Purple. This is a women’s variation of this great cross trainer. Why do we love the Free x Metcon 2? That’s what we’ll talk about here – while we show you the great looks of this new shoe. The Nike Free x Metcon 2 is good for boot camps and strength training. Why is that? It’s a crossover between the Metcon line and the Free running line from Nike. You get a great midsole and outsole for running. The “Free” line is meant to better replicate the bare foot running experience. And it does that by providing a lightweight, cushioned sole – but not with too much cushion – as your bare foot running isn’t like running on a pillow! Here’s the “outsole” – or more simply – the sole. See those hexagonal (6-sided) foam blocks? Those mean that the sole can flex along it’s width AND length. Just like your foot will do while running. Secondly the “siping” is [Read more …]
