Don’t Buy. Get The 4’s Instead

Way worse than the Free Metcon 4’s. The 4’s had almost a gel feeling to the tongue and hugged your foot. The 5’s feel cheap and are not comfortable around the ankle area. Bring back the 4’s and I’d buy them again. No chance I buy the 6’s if they continue this design.

The Best Overall Gym Shoe Imo

True to size. Wraps your feet like a glove and extremely flexible. The midsole is surprisingly more durable than the Free Metcon 6. They are lighter and has a softer midsole compared to the Metcon 9. The best overall gym shoe imo

Great Shoe

Love these shoes, buying as much as I can before they are gone as I don’t like the new metcon6

Very Cheap!! Not Worth $120!

These by appearance look nice. Until you try to put them on. No tongue to adjust to make the shoe wider and you literally have to cram your foot into the hole. Once your foots in, good luck with finding any kind of support because there is none. Literally flat foot an the pavement no support. And side arch support, forget it. Nothing there! Nike, come on, you aren't even trying anymore! Shame on charging so much for so little. Gets worse and worse. Life long Nike fan, no more.

Not Comfortable

Not very comfortable. I walked about 1 mile today and had to change to a different pair. I may return them and get something else.

Favorite Trainers

I have only wore these 2x but they are already my favorite trainers. Very comfortable, great fit and good stability.

Go 1/2 Smaller Than Your Usual Size

Go 1/2 smaller than your usual size. I’m usually a 5.5 in other brands and 6 in Nike but had to go all the way down to a 5. After multiple online returns I got the right size. The all white color is super flattering and looks clean with my gym outfit. I’ve done heavy deadlifts and squats in them but they’re not good for running as the bottom is pretty firm and the middle of the shoe near the arch is a bit narrow. Good as a lifting shoe but don’t think I would do much cross-training/jumping etc in them.

Hoodie Kyle

This is my 4th pair. Need I say more. Excellent gym shoes and for ‘light’ walking. Great looks, great fit, great grip, great durability, … my only issue would be that these are cushioned enough to run in. Otherwise, perfect!

Perfect Workout Shoe

This shoe is the perfect workout shoe. It's comfortable, light weight, and spacious. Definitely runs true to size.

Sized Wrong, Run 1/2 Smaller

Get shoes but a little on the small/tight side. All my other Nikes are 10.5 and fit great but I think these may have been miss labeled unfortunately.

Love

My favorite tennis shoe had to get my boyfriend a pair.
