hi gotta say i love the video and appreciate the work. i have a question tho i train mma so i’m barefoot when i’m training mma. but for conditioning i do strength based lifting and explosive workouts. do you think the metcons would be good for it?
Metcon 8 - I am new to working out and have recently started going to the gym for overall fitness. I have flat feet, and I'm wondering if this is beneficial for me?
They are both great shoes but they are designed completely different for different purposes. The Romaleos are purely a weightlifting shoe and shouldn’t be used for anything else. The Metcons are designed to be stable enough for weightlifting but flexible for running, jumping and other movement during CrossFit workouts. It just depends on which type of activity you are doing
Awesome review. I am currently thinking to buy a training shoes after watching your reviews on metcon zoom turbo 2 & metcon 8. If I only have to pick one, May I ask your option on which one to pick. Thank you🙏🏻
Thank you! If you are going to use them for CrossFit workouts then I would definitely go with the 8s! Not because the Zoom Turbo 2s are bad shoes, the 8s are just better all around shoes. Since the 8s came out, I have maybe worn the Turbos 3 times?
That’s awesome! I hope you enjoy your experience! And remember that different CrossFit gyms offer different flavors of something we all need, functional movement and fitness! If you don’t like the flavor of one gym, try another one! Yes! I would definitely recommend the Metcon 8! Those and the TYR CXT-1 are my top shoes right now! I just made a review video of those a couple days ago!
@@TheSampleySix hey man. Just wanna say, I got my pair today copying your color profile. Gotta say, they look really good and feel great. Breaking them in today. Thanks for this review!
You know, I thought it would be really bad but I’ve been really impressed! The pattern over the outsole that add durability is kind of an off white color so they have stayed looking really good! Thanks for watching!
I think I just had the same problem as you. My eye registered this as blue.. it’s black haha Kinda like the whole white and gold or black and navy dress situations 😂
Thanks! This deserves more views
Thank you! Please like and subscribe so I can get more! 😀

Hi and thanks for this videos. Does this shoe run small or not? take your usual size or one size above ?
They are true to size! Get the size you normally wear! Thanks for watching!
Is this good for weighted squats and deadlifts?
Metcon or romaleos which one is good?

Very much! ☺️
I’m going to start my first CrossFit experience, would you suggest to pick the Metcon 8?

Yes I did! It’s white, dark gray and silver. Thanks!
@@TheSampleySix for the side wall, was it the white option?

Is this blue the “old royal”?
All of the dark parts of the shoes are “Classic Charcoal” or “Dark Gray”
@@TheSampleySix thank you! You the best!
You’re welcome!
Hi
How is the white color in terms of dirty until know?
You know, I thought it would be really bad but I’ve been really impressed! The pattern over the outsole that add durability is kind of an off white color so they have stayed looking really good!

Hahahaha yeah exactly! There is no blue in these shoes when looking at them in person 😂
