    Since its launch in 2011, the Reebok Nano training shoe line has gone through multiple iterations and changes.
    Now in its 13th model with the Reebok Nano X3, it's been really interesting to see the ebbs and flows of the Reebok Nano and how it's changed based on athlete goals and needs.
    In this Reebok Nano History, I talk with Tal Short and go over every Reebok Nano model and discuss key talking points of each shoe.

    18:04 Reebok Nano X2
    19:42 Reebok Nano X3
    I think what's most interesting about the Reebok Nano training shoe line is how we all gravitate toward different models.
    For example, I've thoroughly enjoyed the Reebok Nano X3, Reebok Nano 2, Reebok Nano X, and Reebok Nano 8 and those are some of my favorites to date.
    When thinking about your favorite Reebok Nano shoes, do you notice any trends between the models you love most?
    Let me know in the comments below which Reebok Nano is your favorite of all time!
    I hope y'all enjoyed this one. If you have additional questions drop a comment below!

    FYI - My bad on the dates, y'all. I flew into Boston on a redeye to surprise my best friend for his birthday last weekend and didn't sleep an ounce on the flight because I was sitting by some *interesting* folks (save that story for another time). My brain no good with no sleep 😂

    The 6 & 8 are the goats of the Nanos. The 8’a were so comfy for wearing casually. I wish Reebok would bring them back. Mine finally are so worn out I can’t wear them anymore 🥲

    The nano 5 is the best training shoe I've ever had. I wore mine until I had holes behind my ankle that got too bad for me to deal with. I wish I could still get them, they were literally perfect for me

    Great Video. I loved my 5s and still love my nano 8s. I bought them new and have kept using them until it's obvious I need new ones. I haven't wanted the softer/plusher feeling of the new nanos so I've been sitting and waiting for awhile. Looking at Strike Haze Trainers, and many others with the OG feel. In the end, I just bought the re-released nano 2.0. Can't wait to get my feet in those.

    • @Phuriscrane

    Any ideas after the nano x3 what is your thoughts and plans for the future . Amazing shoe for heavy lifting good for some run and some body worktout but not so much jumbing and not more that 40min . Also the materials are amazing but the machine glue them with no antetion to detail it looks like just glue it anuniformly . Now that crossfit is all over the place with so many machinges what are going to change for nano x4

  • @coopertodd28

    Fives were legendary imo, fours were solid, and although they’re not nano history, the Reebok powers were also super dope for weightlifting. Just gave the x3’s a try today we’ll see how they go! For the algo!😂

    I’ve got arthritis on my feet and knees and have been wearing the nano x 3 for about 12 months love it. I’m planning on doing hyrox next how do you think they hold up for 8 x 1km runs on support? I currently do little running CrossFit but not a lot of running even there.
