FAQs
What is 'Metcon'?
'Metcon' is an abbreviation for metabolic conditioning, indicating the shoe's design supports both cardio and strength training.
Are these shoes good for running?
While the React foam provides some cushioning for cardio, the Metcon 7 is primarily designed for stability during lifting and functional training, not for long-distance running.
How do I clean the Triple Black colorway?
Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a damp cloth with a mild soap and wipe clean. Allow to air dry.
What is the purpose of the Hyperlift plate?
The Hyperlift plate is integrated into the heel to provide a wider, more stable platform for lifting heavy weights.
Can the side panel be used for rope climbs?
Yes, the extended rubber side panel is designed to provide durability and grip assistance during rope climbs.
What is the warranty on these trainers?
Please refer to Nike's official website or the retailer's policy for specific warranty information as it can vary.
How does the lace cage work?
The lace cage helps to keep the laces tucked away and secured, preventing them from interfering with your workout.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone during workouts
Ensure the laces are threaded through the lace cage properly. Double-knot the laces for extra security.
Reduced grip during rope climbs
Clean the rubber side panels with a damp cloth to remove chalk or dirt that might be affecting grip.
Discomfort during high-impact activities
Check the lacing for even pressure distribution. Ensure the shoe size is correct and allows for slight foot swelling.
Lack of flexibility for certain movements
The Metcon 7 is designed for stability; for highly flexible movements, consider a shoe with a more minimalist design.
