You chase the clock, challenging and encouraging each other all in the name of achieving goals and making gains. Our go-to model for training relies on a lighter, more breathable upper than our previous edition, so that you can float through your cardio, power through your lifts and dominate your workouts.

Finding Light in the Darkness

During the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere, the sun has the appearance of being at a 30-degree angle of east and west when it rises and sets. Likewise, when researching the Metcon 8, we found the optimal angle for squatting ranges from 10 to 30 degrees. The gradient, also angled at 30 degrees, goes from light to dark on the midsole and back again from dark to light to mimic the sun rising and setting during the solstice.

Spring in Your Step

Nike React technology is a lightweight, durable foam that delivers a smooth, responsive ride. It makes for a comfortable, cushioned base that feels springy when you kick into high gear for cardio and sprints.

Grip from All Angles

Grippy rubber wraps around your arch during intense rope climbs. Rubber tread gives you traction and helps you stay on your feet when transitioning from the training room floor to the pavement.

Stability for Lifts

The wide, flat heel gets even more stable with an inner plate that distributes weight from edge to edge. It also flexes to make it comfortable for cardio and sprints.
