FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running long distances?
While the Nike Metcon 8 trainers are lightweight and provide good cushioning for shorter runs and agility drills, they are primarily designed for cross-training and gym workouts. For dedicated long-distance running, a specialized running shoe would offer better support and performance.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently clean the mesh. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh detergents.
What is the main difference between the Metcon 8 and other training shoes?
The Metcon 8 is known for its balance of lightweight breathability, durability, and a stable platform suitable for a wide range of training activities, drawing from the Metcon series' reputation for performance.
Can I wear these for weightlifting?
Yes, the Metcon 8 provides a stable base suitable for general weightlifting and strength training. For Olympic lifts or powerlifting requiring maximum stability, a shoe with a more rigid heel and wider platform might be preferred.
What size should I order?
The product information lists this as a UK Size 7 for women. It is recommended to compare with your usual sizing or consult a size chart if unsure.
Is the black and grey colorway available in other sizes?
Yes, the Nike Metcon 8 is available in various sizes and colorways. Please check the product listings for other available options.
How durable is the rubber sole?
The rubber sole is designed for durability and traction, intended to withstand the demands of regular training sessions.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with athletic socks for a few training sessions to allow the materials to mold to your foot. If still uncomfortable, consider if this is the correct size for your foot.
Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free from debris. Wipe the sole with a damp cloth if necessary.
Upper material feels stiff
The breathable mesh is designed to be flexible. Break them in gradually with shorter workouts to allow them to adapt to your foot's movement.
