Nike Metcon 8 training shoes review
NIKE METCON 8 TRAINING SHOES
Built to power you through your workouts.
What's New
The new Metcon 8 is built on the same tooling as the Metcon 7 - the midsole and outsole didn't change.
Nike completely redid the mesh upper to make it more breathable and durable. Because the upper is now made up of less material, there's a roomier vibe in the forefoot. I actually like it better than the 7.
Nike also simplified the lace lock system - it's much less a nuisance than what it was.
Overall
This shoe is excellent. With the tweaks in the upper, the Metcon 8 has a better fit/feel than its predecessor. Although I really liked the Metcon 7 I thought it was a little bulky for day-to-day training (perfect for the heavier days though). The Metcon 8 solves for that. Although it's practically the same weight, the on-foot-feel feels like it's lighter.
Recent Shoe Reviews
You know how most training shoes make you choose, either they’re solid under a heavy barbell but feel clunky for conditioning, or they’re flexible for running and jumps but leave you unstable when lifting? The R.A.D® ONE V2 breaks that mold.
The Metcon 10 feels like Nike finally struck the right balance between structure and comfort. There’s solid stability in the heel and midfoot, but the addition of ReactX foam makes it noticeably more cushioned than the Metcon 9. It still delivers that classic Metcon feel just with more versatility and comfort during fast-paced workouts.
Designed by U.S. veterans, this no-frills trainer brings an authentic, rugged edge to the performance space. From the first wear, it’s clear this shoe was made to go hard—whether you're hammering through a Hero WOD, HIIT, strength circuits, or just racking up steps on a busy day.
