The Nike Metcon 8 shoe for men is your essential go-to for taking on new challenges during your training sessions. This new, more lightweight and breathable version adapts to your favourite exercises.
The Nike React foam in the midsole gives you excellent cushioning and absorbs shock effectively. This gives you a responsive energy return so you can rack up the reps. Its Hyperlift padding keeps your ankle stable and gives you greater mobility.
Its widened heel and midfoot reinforcements are designed for improved stability and good foot support. It has an internal plate designed for balanced weight distribution.
The lightweight mesh gives you constant breathability for extra freshness during your cardio circuits. Inserts in the wear areas give you extra durability. It has a hook-and-loop fastener on the tongue that secures your laces so you can move with confidence.
Its rubber outsole gives you durable grip both indoors and on tarmac. Grooves in the forefoot promote your flexibility.
