Nike Unisex Metcon 6 Gymnastics Shoe

Product Information

FlyEase works exactly as described by Nike, just consider whether you really need this capability – because you are going to sacrifice a little bit of secure fit for it. When it comes to concluding and rating the Metcon 6, we’ve rated it against the main criteria for a all-round training shoe… Nike Metcon 6 for RUNNING

The fit was true to size- I went ½ size smaller than my Nike running shoes and the width and length felt perfect. I like these without the hyperlifts for deadlifting – there’s no benefit to a heel raise with the deadlift. Can You Run In The Nike Metcon 6? The forefoot of the midsole is a much more cushioned foam – and that’s great for sprints, jump rope, box jumps, and more.The Metcon 6 has only one standout competitor, the Nano X, which I scored a 10/10 in my review earlier this year. If I could give Metcon 6 half marks it would be a 9.5/10.

I didn’t include a picture, but the drop-in midsole and hyperlifts appear to be the same shape, material, and performance. There are just a few small cosmetic differences. What’s different in the Nike Metcon 6 as compared to the Metcon 5? Not much. The upper is the real difference.

Well, it’s the same shape and size as the prior shoe – so I’m recommending to go 1/2 size up to get comfort in the toe area. After testing the Metcon 5, the Reebok Nano X launched so I had been wearing that and these felt quite different. More on the comparison of the Nano X and the Metcon 6 here…

One more shot of the width difference – because that’s a big deal – if you need it. The Reebok is a Men’s Size 11, the Nike is an 11.5 It all adds up to Nike’s best training shoe yet, and the best training shoe on the market. Nike knew better than to mess with success this year. Looking around the heel we can see that the collar is much higher on the Reebok. It’s also got a lot of padding. The Reebok feels bulkier because of this.The heel feels quite loose in the FlyEase version of the shoe – that’s the tradeoff for the ability to put them on and take them off without using your hands. Sizing advice is the same for both shoes. Because of the cramped toe box, I go 1/2 size up to get adequate width in the toe area. This was my same sizing for the Metcon 5.
