About this deal

Also to note on the fit, the toe box is wide, as with all Nano’s to give plenty of room for the toes to splay when lifting.

The midfoot in the both the Nano X and Metcon 6 are dual density to give a softer forefoot and firmer rearfoot. The aim of this is to give some cushioning on a short run, and add stability under the heel with lifting weights. The Nano X claims to be more ‘runnable’ than ever, and I can vouch for that. The Metcon 6 has also seen significant improvements in performance when running since the previous iterations. I would just throw caution to the wind for anyone expecting it to be just like previous Nanos like the X, 9, and 8. This model feels fairly different with its reworked midsole and higher 7mm heel-to-toe drop. Due to the nature of the training demands, there’s little outsole tread, making them less than ideal for running or training outdoors.My first pair of Metcon 5s felt too tight in the toes – especially after a long day – when your feet swell. The Nike Metcon 6 has a wide tongue with decent padding. The X1 has a narrow tongue that is not well padded. The Metcon 6 wins hands-down in this category. The Nano X1 is 2 ounces lighter than its predecessor, has 7mm of drop (Up from 4), and best of all – has some effective cushion in the heel and midfoot. This is one area where the X1 stands out – at 12.1 ounces per shoe (US Men’s Size 11) it’s almost 2 ounces lighter than the Nike Metcon 6 (13.9 ounces). The Nano X1 is almost 2 ounces lighter per shoe, as compared to the Metcon 6. Lighter is better. The Reebok Nano X1 features a breathable mesh that extends throughout the entirety of the shoe sans the heel which has additional synthetic layers for stability and durability.

In the Nike Metcon 7, you should be safe going true-to-size, but do keep in mind that this model fits slim. If you have to size up because you have a wide foot, then you may run into some heel slip issues.When it comes to performance, what we’ve seen previously in training shoes is the search to find a happy medium, compromising between stability for lifting and cushioning on a run.
