I really appreciate the honest review. I think it’d be natural to simply say it’s amazing bc it’s an “elite” shoe. I’m not sure we need elite shoes (or the elite pricing).
Yeah, but carbon-plated racing shoes NEED to be light/airy, which tends to come at the cost of their durability. Whereas there isn’t nearly as much of a need for training shoes to be lightly built, so I’m assuming/hoping that Tyr felt no need to skimp on durability, since that’s clearly a higher priority aspect in a CrossFit shoe. Plus, I’m sure Joel would’ve mentioned something, if he noticed any signs of flimsiness/failure points. My skepticism is aimed more towards the claim of a 25% increased vertical propulsion. I’d really love to see their methodology & data on those tests, if for nothing more than sheer curiosity.
Thanks for quick reply. I love the 10k Session shorts, the interval waistband always seems to be twisted or wonky. Whats “DWR” as you mentioned above? Is the waist band like or better than Interval?
Hey Joel, I’m wearing 9 for Nike(s), 9 for Nano X4 and 8.5 for Nano X2, which size should I get for this tyr carbon, thank you very much, ur videos helped me to get the true sizing for nanos too!
Is this a shoe that you wouldn’t train in everyday because of wearing them down quickly? I like to train in the same shoes I compete in. And do you notice the change from 7-4mm on the drop?
@@fusiongains given the use, I’d assume they would hold up better than plated runners but I still don’t think this is an everyday training shoe. You do notice the difference in drop.
It has become well appreciated that carbon fiber based shoes are NOT your best option for every day training . . . as mentioned in the video, intended for competition day.
How have you gone with the sizing? Did the 10.5 break in, did the 11s start to get a bit loose? Keen to know your experience as we share same size foot
@@AMRAP and you wear size 10.5 for CXT-2? Because you mention the 10.5 are a bit tight on the elite. I want to buy the regular CXT-2 and have size 9 (42.5 EU) for Romaleos 2. For some other shoe brands I even need to buy 8.5 so I fear that size 9.5 for CXT-2 would be too big.

This is a great first impressions.
Okay Joel, that was a nice pun
@@isaacting1301 was wondering if anyone would catch that lol
great review!
Carbon plated shoes don't even last that long since they're considered race day shoes. This is absolutely wild.

Hey Joel! Love the channel and the IG! Any insight on the TYR shorts
compared to the ten thousand shorts?
They're nice! Similar to 10k Intervals with a better DWR finish.

@@mumbojumboddot you’re going to want size 9.5.
Thank you!
early gang!!
Will this increase my bench and squat?
I guarantee it!

@@AMRAP Don (one of your coaches) and I were talking about how you've made us spend a lot of money on shoes over the years lol. The cycle continues.

@@bennyfinktunes I ended up sticking with 11. I actually just put up a follow up to this video.
@@AMRAP thanks for the quick reply. Compared to the regular CXT - 2s do you size them the same or different size in the 2s regular shoe?
@@bennyfinktunes my cxt2 is 10.5 and my elites are 11.
@@AMRAP thanks mate! Loving all your reviews!
Me buying the green colorway as a casual shoe 😂
@@Brown86Power ballin
I love the CXT-1s as a casual shoe.
They actually kinda look like Kobe 8s
Is the insole actually removable?
Yeah, it the same insole as the normal cxt so I didn’t talk about it but it’s removable if you needed to replace it.
which size you have for Nike's like Romaleos (2) and flex experience rn?
@@Frag1ty romaleos 2 size 10. Never tried flex experience.

@@Frag1ty yeah I wear 10.5 for cxt2. For the elites I’m in between 10.5 and 11, depending on the socks I wear. Rom2s run about a half size big.
What size are you in Nano X4s and X3s?
@@jamesparker9307 10 x3/10.5 x4
these aren't even on their site yet XD
missed the part where i said early sept.
@@AMRAP I have a bad habit of commenting before the video is finished. My bad 👊
