Nike React Metcon

The iconic Nike Metcon saga of indoor CrossFit-specific shoes continues to add new members to the family with the arrival of the Nike React Metcon, the high-intensity interval training shoe. Or what is the same, the latest of the latest from the Oregon brand for the most demanding multisport athletes.

Nike React Metcon, most outstanding features

In these new Nike React Metcon training shoes, three features that are highly appreciated in all high-performance sports shoes are combined, such as traction, stability and cushioning. Based on the performance of a standard training shoe, traction and stability, this model implements the innovative React foam in its midsole, thus achieving an even more comfortable, lightweight and reactive cushioning capacity.

In this sense, Nike plays it safe with this Nike React Metcon, because the React foam has already been tested with great efficiency and success in some of the best-selling models of its catalog of Running shoes, such as the Nike React Infinity Run, or the iconic Nike Epic React Flyknit 2

To all this, the Nike React Mecton also includes a very breathable and lightweight upper. At the same time, the grip section is not neglected either, and in this way, the model implements a highly resistant and durable rubber outsole.

The whole set of technologies and materials make these Nike React Metcon a training shoe for high-impact physical activities, as well as ideal for those specific weightlifting routines.

The key points of the Nike React Mecton training shoes

With all that said about these Nike React Mecton, the strengths of this innovative and evolved training shoe can be summed up as:

High-impact activity-oriented design.

Of course, largely due to the React foam cushioning, which gives the shoe a greater degree of reactivity, without compromising its lightness. Thus, the model is suitable for basic or more intense cardio movements, from plyometric exercises (box jumps) to explosive sprints.

Improved adaptability

Thanks to its Flyknit upper, this Nike React Mecton features a more flexible, breathable upper that adapts to any type of movement. Plus, with the quick-lace lacing system, which allows for a more adjustable, tailored fit.

Durable and resistant traction

The rubber compound of the outsole of these Nike React Metcon also reinforces the sides of the model, which translates into increased durability, while providing additional grip for rope climbs, for example.

All in all, we're talking about the Nike React Metcon as one of those more ideal options for CrossFit practice.
