FAQs
Can I use these for marathon running?

Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Free Metcon 7 generally fits true to standard adult sizing, though preferences may vary based on sock thickness.
Are they machine washable?
No, it is recommended to hand-clean them with a damp cloth to protect the structural integrity and cushioning technology.
Is the sole flat enough for heavy lifting?
Yes, the shoe provides a stable base suitable for general weightlifting, though specialized powerlifting shoes may be preferred for competitive heavy lifting.
What surfaces are these best for?
These trainers are best suited for indoor gym surfaces, such as rubber matting or wooden fitness studio floors.
Do these shoes provide arch support?
The design includes integrated structural support that helps maintain foot alignment during varied training movements.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping during lateral moves
Ensure laces are tightened securely to utilize the integrated lockdown structure of the upper.
Material feels stiff initially
This is common for performance trainers; wear them for shorter sessions for 3-4 days to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
Difficulty cleaning the mesh upper
Use a soft-bristled brush with a mixture of mild detergent and water, gently scrubbing in circular motions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Free Metcon 7s, start by ensuring the correct fit for your foot shape; the trainers should feel snug but not restrictive. These are strictly gym-performance trainers and are not recommended for outdoor trail use. For care, keep the shoes away from direct, high-heat sources like radiators, as this can degrade the cushioning foam. To clean, wipe away surface dirt with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air-dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the materials.
