Coop, the 8 is the predecessor to the 9, or the 9 is the successor to the 8 😊
I spotted that too.
Yep, that was a boo-boo.
We should probably all unsubscribe if this is the severity of mistake we're going to be dealing with moving forward!! 🤬
(yeah I caught it, I tried to ignore it 😄 ).
Nailed it lol
He didn’t have coffee.
I’ll buy these purely to acknowledge a company being willing to make a positive change they have been stubborn with in the past. Nike is at least partially responsible for a narrow toe box in athletic shoes. Props to them for doing this subtle, important change.
Wider toebox ftw
FYI the 9s are on sale for $88 + tax in a couple nice colors right now. Just picked mine up , excited to try them out
Where did you buy them
nike website@@peniswithstretchmarks
I got a pair of Metcon 8s for £43 from the Nike Outlet Store which equates to roughly $54. It goes to show if you wait, you can grab yourself a bargain.
I grabbed these today for 80 bucks and 73 with discounts
@@firstnamelastname9215 Nines?
I had the Metcon 3 and after the soles came off of the uppers and I got tired of trying to Shoe Goo them back together, I "upgraded" to the 7s. They're fine, but I prefer the 3s. They were lighter and less bulky and just felt more comfortable overall, while not being any less stable. Honestly, those Xeros you prefer look a lot like the early Metcons.
I like the shoe reviews. I have the Metcon 7's which I love, and the reviews have been helpful as I probably won't need to upgrade for a bit. I would be interested in getting your take on the R.A.D one's as I have heard much about them but they have few reviews online.
The all white is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've got the Nano X3 shoes and I honestly think they're the best shoes I've ever worn, period. I wear them for pretty much everything, inside the gym and out.
Same. Love the nano line. It totally changed my shoe preference altogether and love the wide toe box
Truth
1. It's the successor to the Metcon 8, not the "predecessor" (0:05); and
2. Please don't say you're "gonna compare it to...other ones that are out there" (e.g., the MUCH better Reebok Nano X3), then not do so. (1:25).
I genuinely miss the Nike Free Trainers they used to make. It had the flexibility of a barefoot shoe to a decent degree, the cushioning you see in the Nike Free Runs now, but the lateral support and stability of a trainer without an ultra hard heel. It was good for both training, running, and daily wear. Ever since they got rid of them, I ended switching straight to Vivobarefoots which are great but still miss that shoe for its versatility and comfort. It was probably ahead of its time and would fare far better today with the demand that’s present for barefoot styled training shoes.
I have the Metcon 3. Squeaky like crazy. Still use them though, haven’t upgraded them yet
I got em on sale :) I usually wear barefoot shoes, like my favorite Merrell Vapor Glove 6's, but these Metcon 9's are pleasantly spacious in the toes! Not super spacious like a barefoot shoe, but way better than most other shoes.
I got this for $80 yesterday, which is way cheaper than my Dropset 2s. Can't wait to try them out.
Coop taking a massive sniff test of his zeros had me rolling. What is it about guys that since we were boys we instinctively have to smell everything no matter how putrid. Will try on the nines next time I’m at the next time I’m at the Nike store. Thank you for the honest and entertaining reviews Coop.
Love the review. Thanks Coop!
I enjoy these reviews. Thanks
Re lace lock: Can we just get a lace pocket on the tongue like some running shoes have? This seems like a quicker, sensible way to manage laces than needed to rely on a velcro closure.
Just stumble upon your page. Good review very informative.
Can you do a review on Steelflex Leg Curl and Leg extension machines? They are plate loaded and look like they fix a lot of the problems with plate loaded machines.
Got 6 and got 9. 6 is still the most comfortable 1 with extra heel.
I just tried these on, they felt cheap as hell and have little to no shock absorption. I went with the let's go ruck rough runners.
Predecessor = before
Successor = after
9 is the successor to the 8
😜
Tried these and found them to be super hard, especially on the malleolus part, a real pity cause everything else was nice
Coop, any thoughs on Xero Forza Trainer? Great Video
Shoes are like iPhones. Constant updates, not always for the better. Keeping up with the joneses. Disposable. I doubt many people are actually wearing out their shoes except runners and hikers.
Yep.
I just ordered these for $120 on the Nike app. Not sure I would have pulled the trigger if I didn’t get the discount.
How have they been?
I like the look but it doesn't sound like they fixed thr issue with using metcons they're good for lifting or quick movements but terrible at running even short distance or on a tread mill
Would actually love to hear your thoughts on the Motus from Vivo. I know they’re pricy but seems like they’d be more stable than the other barefoot style shoes
And/or the new Born Primitive shoe.
I got them and returned them. I continuously tripped while walking with them.
I’ve worked out the last couple weeks in the Metcon9 and I just don’t like them as much as the 7/8. Just too stiff for me in the toe box
Coop - The Metcon 4's were the last Nike that fit my feet. They had the widest toe-box of any Metcon since. Luckily I bought two pair back in the day and still wear them. The 8's a total bust and very narrow. You're saying these are wider than the 4's? I'll have to buy a pair but am a little skeptical. Call me hopefull.
Design is 🔥 - though I just lift in my living room and don't use shoes
Compare low drop wide toe shoes, I like xero but also considering inov8 and vivo
I have the 9’s I love them and I’ve had them all the way from 4. I actually got a custom pair from Nike early for 160 Nike ID they’re 180 now
Hey coop, I’m looking at building an outdoor gym under a carport and I’m wondering what kind of weight plates I should get
I lift in 40 dollar Amazon basic flat wide shoes with an added good insole.
I have the 7s they are great for weight training, however I usually like to go on a spin bike after, the rear wide plastic heel catches and rubs. It's terrible in the wet too. That sounds like it's not a good shoe but it is, it's just not perfect as most claim.
Do you have a recommendation for a jump rope shoe for someone with flat feet?
I just got the 9s. I’m looking forward to using the during a workout. The last metcons I had were the 2s.
How's the squeaking? I like the metcons I have rn but the squeaking is probably the worst thing about mine
Remove the insoles, pour baby powder into the shoe, then insert the insoles back into your shoe. They will never squeak again.
Do you think these are good if i mostly lift but i do run a little when i have pe at school? And how is the grip to the shoes pls answer
didnt see a video about this, so i'll just ask. i am building a home gym and wondering, should i unload my barbell at the end of the session? or is it ok to just keep it loaded? cheap cap barbell and i am still under 100 lbs.
I'd like you to review the vivos vs metcon 9
Is this shoe suitable for HIIT workout?
Would this work for Padel ?
Just got these for around 65 bucks on Nike today 😁
are these tight im a 9.5 in nike wrestling shoes what shoukd i wear
the metcon 5's & 6's had removable hyper lift (heel) inserts that you could choose to put in your shoe if you wanted a larger heel lift, do the 9's still come with inserts as well?
No, the hyper lift is now permanent i the sole of the sneaker
I think starting from 7, customers dont get extra heel like 6.
Would these be good for powerlifting?
Hey Coop valor cb 15 lat pulldown machine?
I still have 3s that I only use in the garage. Indestructible.
$67 on the Nike app right now. Hope they work!
Looks Nice for boxe ?
Best workout shoe for minimalist shoes. 🤔
I love Xero's. The HFS is my go-to. Wearing them right now. - Coop
@GarageGymReviews are you sticking with the Xero or switching to Metcons? I've always trained in metcons but been wanting to switch to minimalist
@@GarageGymReviews it’s hard to go back to regular shoes after wearing xero. I own both metcon and romaleos
@@willythekid18 Xero's for like at this point. - Coop
@@GarageGymReviews l love them too ! Xero’s the Prio is my workout 🏋🏾♂️ shoe 👟
Still no coverage on Leg Press of Hack Squat machines?
Here's one. What other ones would you like to see? ua-cam.com/video/cD-P9fsh8nQ/v-deo.html - Coop
@@GarageGymReviews Thank you Sir💥💥🚀🚀🚀
I'm coming from a flat minimal unsupported shoe and wow these fit me well and seem like great lifting shoes. I like how they feel planted but not clunky, they're quite light, i like the very shallow angle like 4mm drop, but man these are ugly as hell.
Love my metcons. Absolutely can’t run or jump in them though. Don’t even like doing burpees in them. Definitely not jumping rope in them.
What if you’re doing cardio after lifting ?
@@CobarLP I change shoes
Weird question. Would these work for golf?
Definitely- I won the U.S. Open wearing these. Super glue some 8 penny nails for more traction.
Didn't know that Metcon 8 is newer than Metcon 9.
please make a $3,000 home gym video
just got these on sale for $85 after tax that a steal ?
Might actually get these for the wide toe box on leg press. Good job, Nike!
Imagine getting metcons just to do leg press 😂😂😂😂😂 L kid
@@bpswank429 I did and don't regret it. Plus it's not like it's then only movement that had benefited from the heel.
So are they good shoes or nah
Reebok Nano X3 is a far superior shoe imo
I may have missed it, but are these good for heavier lifters? I’m 5’ 11” and my weight fluctuates pretty dramatically. Anywhere from 220-250. Would these hold up for someone that heavy? I struggle to find shoes that last more than a few months especially when I’m closer to that 250 weight.
Definitely. They're one of the most stable training shoes I've used due tot heel plate. Great for heavier folks. - Coop
@@GarageGymReviews Thanks!
@@randyweaver6911 lol “heavier” lifter 😂
The plastic heal on my Metcon 8 wore down in less than 8 months and I do NO cardio with them. Just wear them to the gym. Will not buy again and certainly wouldn't recommend.
I have every iteration of the Metcons and these are the worst ones yet. The heaviest shoe they’ve created, and has so much padding that they feel like they old man New Balances
Nike metcon 9 Vs project rock 6 Vs adidas drop set trainer 2
I have Metcon 7, but I workout barefoot anyway.
Boom goes the dynamite
Just got the metcon 9's for 75$
Good for CrossFit ?!
Sure, the day after I buy training shows…
You shouldn’t even be able to call a shoe a training shoe and definitely not a lifting show, if the front of the shoe forces your toes into a point. 👎🗑️
More lifting shoe reviews.
NoBull High Top trainers are not deadlifting shoes. Your Xero shoes would be better for deadlifting.
My favorite minimalist shoe? Socks.
That heel is so bad. I tried a pair of the 7's on at a dicks sporting goods and just walking around in them felt bad. It felt like walking in weightlifting shoes which is not good imo
Lol it’s a weightlifting shoe. It’s not a running shoe.
bro predecessor or successor? come now. Pre? No, as 9 is the successor to 8 😶
Lol no, very high sole especially heel, strong arch support which is BAD, crushes your fingers at the front because of pointy front...
Nike gone W O K E. It would be GOOD ideal not to reviews their products. Screw Nike
It’s the successor, not predecessor to the 8’s. Sorry, I had to… 😢
Thank you Mom.
But forreal, you're right. - Coop
No thanks Nike. Barefoot shoes are what you want.
yeah. vans work too. but some of them flats really are killer.
If you have a garage gym, why even wear shoes? Being able to work out in my underwear while blasting Viking chant music is the best part of a home gym
@@kungfoochicken08 truth my unclothed brother.
@@kungfoochicken08viking chants are top tier cringe
İ agree, but olympic lifting can be a real challenge without a heel
Too bulky
1st
Woke company that takes blackrock money. Nope
#1- shoe reviews are boring.
#2- Do the people who make these still work in sweatshops?
#3- the brand is political, therefore garbage
