Nike Launch Metcon 5 Training Shoes
Meet your new secret weapon for high-impact training and weightlifting. With the new features the Metcon 5 shoes are a whole lot more performance enhancing than ever before. To celebrate the highly anticipated launch of the all new Nike Metcon 5 shoes, I was invited to a training session with Nike at London's 12x3 Gym. This was the perfect opportunity to put the Metcon 5 shoes and the new Nike Pro Collection with new technology through its paces.
With a bespoke session put in place by the Nike trainers, it became evident very soon that the new Metcon 5 shoes was a whole new level to what I've worn in the gym in the past. The Nike Metcon 5 is the most tuned Metcon yet. This involves stability for heavy lifting, traction made for speed and durability. It includes a Hyperlift insert that's compatible with prior versions of the Metcon range. This gives that extra level of stability for those squats and deadlifts! Here are some of the key features:
Zoned Durability
Textured print on the top of the shoe adds lightweight durability where it's needed.
Enhanced Grip
Directional traction on the outsole wraps up the side of the shoe for grip when climbing a rope and speed when sliding down.
Diverse Cushioning
Foam is firmer under the heel for a secure feel and softer in the forefoot to cushion high-impact moves.
The good news is that the Metcon 5 training shoes are now available for you to get your hands onto. Retailing at £114.95 these training shoes are a real investment for your training regime. Head over to the Nike website to explore more and chose from the 5 colours which they are available in. If that isn't enough - and if you are feeling creative - you can also design your own pair by visiting the Nike Metcon 5 By You section.
