NIKE Metcon = US10
Reebok Nano X = US10 (fit sung but with room
Reebok Nano XI = US10 (fit larger than Nano X - I could have probably sized down .5 and been fine)
Reebok Nano X2 = US9.5 (fits like NanoX)
Use Case: 7 Days a week in the gym/general purpose: cardio (stairs/row/battle ropes/bike), throwing weights around, everything but squats or deadlights (as I use Reebok Men's Lifter PR IIs and Reebok Power Lite Mids, respectively, for those exercises).
The Nano X2 is more like the Nano X than X1 (thankfully). After much use, I was not a fan of the X1, the shoe 'bagged' out really fast and lost all support allowing my foot swim around.
Great fit if you have wide feet and are not worried about rope climbing.
- This is not a minimalist shoe (like the X1 was).
- The tongue is shorter/lower/not as puffy as the X/X1
- Feels lighter than X
- Feels heavier than X1
- More cushion than X1
- Similar cushion feel to X
- This is NOT a running shoe (just like the previous versions) - you've been warned!
Reinforced toe box and eyelets (this lends to the stiffer feel over the XI). Note: The eyelets area is wide (it's a wide shoe, even mid-foot) and you are not able to force them to lace super tight, i.e., get the eyelets super close to each other without buckling the front of the shoe at the first eyelet).
Where the Nano X1 had a very loose/thin upper the Nano X2 is a more solid shoe all around; much less side to side play and overall stiffer materials. It hugs your foot yet very breathable.
Wide toe box like the Nano X, similar stability and cushion.
Heel clip is nice, feels a bit closer to the stability of the X1 than the X. Enough width and stability that you could do medium-heavy lifts, but they might not be enough shoe for big heavy PR sets, Olympic style lifts or.
For true cross-fit, I'd say they are at a disadvantage in the rope climbing category as they are not reinforced like the Metcon 7 or 8 (which runs much narrower than the Nano line).

Good cross-training shoes; laces are short
I like these shoes a lot, but I’ll get my main criticism out of the way right off the bat: the laces are way too short. If you thread the laces through all the holes and then tighten everything down pretty hard, you’re left with just enough length to tie a single knot that ends just above the plastic caps at the end of the laces. This means the shoes come untied fairly often. Not the end of the world. I’ll just buy some after-market laces. But it is annoying and I don’t know how Reebok didn’t catch this issue. I have pretty narrow feet and I’m guessing someone with thicker feet might not even be able to get these shoes tied.Now that’s off my chest, here’s what’s good about these shoes. I bought them for cross-training—mostly lifting and HIIT workouts—and they perform well for both. The soles are almost flat and the heel has a modest rise, so they work great for powerlifting. These same features make me think they wouldn’t be ideal for running any distance other than shorts sprints.They didn’t feel super comfortable the first day I wore them, but they broke in great after one or two workouts. I feel very stable and comfortable while doing squats and deadlifts. They’re the right combination of supportive and flexible to be great for box jumps, burpees, jumping rope, etc. At the same time, they have a pretty rigid sole that keeps the foot from moving all over the place during explosive movements like jumps.They’re comfortable enough that I’ve been wearing them around town to run errands, and they’re nice and breathable. I’ve only had them about a week so I can’t speak to how they’ll hold up. But I bought them to replace an earlier generation of Nanos I wore for like 6 years before they gave out, and this pair feels more solid, if anything. Thicker soles and more reinforcement.

These fit nicely! I have a normal to narrower foot. The length is exactly right. They feel adequately roomy side to side at the widest part of my foot. I think these will be stable and supportive for my weightlifting and HIIT workouts. The solid black color looks good too. Good shipping, came in a few days.
