Nike Metcon for Squats

[ I knew when I opened the box that these would become my go- to shoe. I just started working out again full time and I needed a shoe that could keep up with me. Out of the box the shoes were super light and very attractive. The fabric on the exterior was not mesh, though it appeared that it was. It was actually coated in a rubber that makes cleaning the shoe super easy. Good thing, too, because these shoes are white…which means they ’ ll go with almost EVERY gym outfit I own. When I put the shoes on they felt very comfortable with plenty of support throughout my entire foot. The shoe style was cute too, made a little wider than my foot it was giving skater vibes. As I worked out, however, I suppose my feet started to swell and they became kind of uncomfortable. No worries, though, because the shoelaces could be loosened and it gave me plenty of room again. I actually liked it better with the laces loosened to be honest because it meant I could slip the shoes off and back on again with ease. Likely I will need to break these shoes in before they are completely comfortable to wear throughout my hour and a half workout. I performed several days worth of gym workouts in these shoes, but I could most feel the design intent in the shoe on leg day. On leg day while performing my very first squat I could feel the extra support and cushion in the heel. As I pressed through the lift I could feel the shoe giving me the right support right where I needed it. That performance continued throughout my entire workout giving me confidence that I could keep form due to the stability the flat bottom of the shoe provided. So, does the shoe do what it says it does? I would say yes. Even on the days that I did arm and shoulder routines I could tell the shoe was working to keep me balanced and supported, helping me keep my form through my entire workout. I liked the design intent in this shoe more than any other thing about the shoe. Its about time someone offered up a shoe that wasn ’ t labelled “ training ” but is, instead, geared for lifting( not just running). If I could change anything it would be the narrow toe. I have a foot that is just a little wider than an average toe width but narrower than a wide. I ’ m only speaking for myself, though. The fact is, if you have an average width foot these shoes are probably absolutely DREAMY to wear.

[ I really love these Nike Metcon 10 Women's Workout Shoes! Opening the box, my first impression was that they look really cool. Very modern and almost futuristic but not overly streamlined, I love the style lines. The shape of the toe box is nice and wide and the bottom of the shoe is wide along the entire foot. I ’ m not really a runner but I love training so I wore these for an at home workout the first time using them. They are about 1/2 size too small( I ordered true to my regular size so I ’ d size up 1/2 size). Despite them being a little small, I was able to get through the workout pretty comfortably. I haven ’ t had shoes that feel this stable during a workout before. They grip well, have a huge stable base and allow me to focus on my core for stablity rather than trying to not slide around in my shoes. I want to swap out for a half size larger and these will be my go- to for every workout. Love them!!!

[ These shoes are so comfortable! I wore them to work, to an elementary school function, and then on a run and they still felt comfy by the end of the day! I only wish I had ordered a half size to a size larger because they fit extremely true to size and I like a little more wiggle room for being active. The coolest feature is the little pouch on the top of the tongue that allows you to tuck the laces in so they don ’ t come untied or flop around- that ’s genius! The quality of the shoe is excellent. They have a unique shape and design that is super cool. Aside from them having gotten a little dirty in my wearing them( they are white), the materials have held up flawlessly. The shoe strings are strong and the shoe material itself is durable and breathable. For every day wear, they are wonderful and fit true to size; they are also a great shoe for being active if you order a half to a whole size larger!

[ I absolutely love the fit and feel of these shoes. They feel very supportive and structured without overdoing it. The design is fun, the subtle lines are different from any other shoes I have, but still just a simple white/gray pattern. The fabric is sturdy and seems like it will hold up to a lot of wear- it ’s stiffer than my other Metcon shoes. A fun thing I didn ’ t realize at first is how the tongue can stretch over and hide the laces. I don ’ t know why I ’ d need to do that personally, but I really like it. At first, the stiffness of the shoe was a turn- off, but as I ’ ve worked out in them several times and worn them around a couple of times, it ’s perfectly comfortable now. The ankle seems to have less support than other Metcon shoes I own, but I actually find this a positive- the others felt like too much stiffness/protection in the ankle. Overall, I would definitely recommend these for lifting and conditioning- type workouts. I also wore them on an indoor bike, and they worked for that as well.

[ As an avid gym go- er, these have been great for my morning lift sessions. So far I ’ ve been loving the stability and structure of these shoes as I have very weak ankles from years of wear and tear of playing sports. The fabric is very sturdy and seems like it will hold up to a lot of wear. Really love the clean lines and design of these shoes. Something cool about these shoes is that you can tuck the laces into the top part of the tongue however not sure it ’s a make or break feature lol These shoes have some stiffness to them upon first few wears but have become more comfortable. Don ’ t recommend for cardio or running with the lack of bounce but Overall, I would definitely recommend this shoe for gym lift sessions, casual wear around town running errands.
