    I have worn metcon 7 (for lifting wods) and nano x2 (for cardio wods) before receiving my metcon 8s last week. I think the 8s are a perfect mix between the two. Absolutely love them! I think you were a bit harsh on them, since in my opinion the 7s were great for lifting but absolutely sucked for anything running related. The 8s are an alright wod running shoe. Would never do more than 800m in any workout shoe, but the 8s are fine for that (as were the nano x2, but they were not great for lifting imo). Also I much prefer the look of the 8s compared to the 7, as the 7 looked very bulky on me (and a lot of other women imo)...

      Same i have two pair of 4s. Bought the 8s and instantly returned them-way uglier and no where near as good for crossfit type stuff. Metcon 8s are not as good for sprinting or lateral movement as the 4s...mainly designed as a weight lifting shoe now

    Waouh ! very nice review, thank you very much for the video. One very question ... if you had the choice for only 1 pair of shoes for Crossfit training, would you choose Metcon 8 or Nobull Trainer plus ? Thank you very much for your feedback

    Mine came the other day and I immediately took them off and filed for a return. They are so narrow it hurts. The sole is also so hard it’s like walking on wood. How do you guys wear these?

    I was really looking forward for these, but i travel a lot and usually need to stick with just a pair of shoes. Would you recommend the 7s or should i look somewhere else?

    • @AMRAP
      @AMRAP  2 роки тому +3

      These would be easier to deal with day to day if you were traveling, but that would sound brutal depending on how much walking you plan on doing. I'd probably go with Strike Haze, Nano X2 or RAD.

    How do these compare to the 6’s as far as impact/cushion? I hate running in the 6, but can’t lift in the vapor max. I really need to find a Nike shoe that can be used for everything in the gym and running up to a mile.

    • @AMRAP

      6 have better cushion and are better for running. Try zoom metcon turbo or metcon free 5.

      Nano x3 will get you up to 7mm. Tyr cxt1 is 9mm. You can continue to use your hyper lifts in the metcon 8 or 9 too.

    • @AMRAP
      @AMRAP  2 роки тому +1

      If you’re mainly doing strength with just some conditioning, get Metcon 7. If you’re kinda balanced between the two, maybe try Nano x2.

  • @XZYwatcher
    @XZYwatcher Рік тому

    Honestly, I wouldn't recommend the Metcon 7 for CrossFit to anyone. These shoes are completely unsuitable for running and movements like box jumps. They have a ridiculously hard sole - practically plastic. Personally, I am not satisfied with them and would rather opt for the Nano X3.

    Metcon 4 vs 8 vs Nano X1 and why?

    • @AMRAP
      @AMRAP  2 роки тому +1

      Nano X1s are one of the worst CrossFit shoes of all time so definitely not that. Metcon 8 would probably be my pick over 4s since I think the midsole feels more consistent but it’s pretty close.

    I walked 2 miles to get my second covid shot wearing 1-day old 7s and I ended up with really bad shin splints, and once the vaccine after-effects kicked in, I ended up having shin splint-locked ankles for nearly 4 days. HORRIBLE experience. I don't even wear them casually because of that experience.GREAT in the gym though. just not something to be worn casually. Watching your review about the 8s being even more rigid gave me flashbacks to last year lol
