About time the bigger companies catered to wider feet. The amount of times I've had to choose between having clown shoes or just missing out. Love the classic Reebok design too.Good review
Tie your laces differently, namely in such a way that instead of 2 loops, you have 4 loops. Then all your problems are solved and it looks even better!
Can't wait for this shoe. Nike (Metcon) has rested on it's laurels and has failed to do anything with the Metcon. (The released pics of the metcon 5 look horrid)...I am glad Reebok went back to the drawing board and gives us a new shoe and not another iteration like 7 > 8 was. Great review!
Personally I think the Metcon 5 looks awesome depending on the color scheme. Can’t fit in them though with my wide feet so I don’t care. The Nano 8 sale about to drop though? Ohhhh man
@@TacticallyFitOfficial Should be soon, if not already. Check Reebok's clearance and see if they have any active codes. They were on sale for like $60ish the other week, I believe. - Jake
Picked these up (black with a different weave upper) for only 80 today. Got them for use with my One wheel and figured the wide heal, good grip and stability would be good for skating. One compliant after ringing about 10km my feet felt like they were on fire. I think just stopping a bit more often and stretching my feet would fix this. Would recomend if anyone is looking for a shoe for a OneWheel
I will wait for sale, design are great, Delta logo was better looking for me, the only functional addition it's the extra cushioning. Nano 8 at moment are great shoes. Hope Reebok fix the long laces and the ugly bun that is made by squeezing them Thanks for review
I prefer the look of the 8 but these don't have that hard shudder when you run. The design is bit meh I'd prefer the larger Delta on the sides. Apart from that its a great shoe.
Ive bought various shoes like metcons, some pumas and other reeboks too for wider feet but so far only reebok nano 9 has been so darn comfortable and they look quite smart too! I just dont like the asics looks and these are a win win I own about 3 of them
Top review as always! Never tried the Nanos (no one in my box wears size 11) but with the Metcon 4s I found a great stability improvement in comparison to my TR2's.. How would you compare them to the Metcons? Thanks in advance
Will do - thanks for the tip! I'm definitely not moving completely efficient in all out running settings. Since having surgery on my knee, I think I compensate for discomfort by altering my mechanics at times, so my heel-to-toe turnover/gait is probably out of whack. I wonder if the width of the shoe is also a factor in the slap because my foot is a bit on the narrow side & the 8s run wider naturally. I don't have the same issue in the Speed TR/9s, for example, or maybe it's the heel's firmer TPU/rubber constrcution in the 8s. Thoughts from a runner's PoV? Thanks again for looking out, Sebastien! - Jake
Love the detail of your reviews! I'm looking for my first pair of general use "workout" shoes. Currently a mix of Crossfit style workouts, some light powerlifting moves, and light running. I've also seen suggestions of many athletes for No Bulls. Any suggestions on which direction to take?
They were fine, IMO. Note, I only squatted up to 315 lbs in them, but I pulled up to 455 lbs and did a little bounce at the top like all the cross training shoes I test and noticed minimal compression. Would I call them the most stable cross trainers I've tried? No, but they do pretty well for handling moderate squat loads. If you're not routinely squatting 455+/or maximal amounts for that matter, then I think these will be a good bet for stability! - Jake
So how do these shoes hold up a year later? I found a good deal on these and am considering getting a pair. I have seen some reviews saying the sole started to delaminate from the rest of the shoe. Do you know if this is a common problem? Thanks for the detailed reviews!
i have tried nano9 2 times now, no doubt i will go back to nano8, nano 9 is way too small on the top of the foot and can't be in it at all and my feet hurt
Ah, sorry to hear that. They made the last slightly more narrow on this model, which is a hit for some, but not others. Hope you can find a sweet deal on new Nano 8s! - Jake
@@jesperboge If you have a pair that's holding up well, I'd say wait until Black Friday - Reebok usually has really great deals. Also, they have decent deals on a pretty regular basis that are always worth keeping an eye on. Of course, thank you for watching! - Jake
Potentially. We have a comprehensive review on the Flexweave already and our filming schedule is slammed with all of the new models, but I can add it in the mix. Can I answer any questions for you here that you might have? Btw, the Speed TR Flexweave is one of my faves, too, especially for the price. - Jake
For beginner and intermediate athletes who don't have very specific shoe asks, I always recommend going for the most cost efficient option. I'd say shop around and see if you can snag a pair of 8s under $80! Let me know how your search goes, man! - Jake
I know this seems a weird question but i live in south texas and summer here is insane. I have trouble finding the good shoe. I bought a reebok crossfit shoe last year and the flexweave felt it over heated. Does this shoe overheat like the old flexweave? Idk if anyone can help with the weird ?..plz
Thank you! And it actually is in this model! The cast of this shoe is slightly slimmer compared to the 8, so it actually felt better on my foot, which is slightly narrower. The material on the interior also does a pretty good job at limiting how much stretch you feel, too. - Jake
Good review -- sold me on the shoes. If only there was a way to deal with the problem of shoe laces being way too long without the trouble of getting and putting on shorter laces. I mean, I'm not a professional cobbler! I'm thinking . . . if only someone would come up with a way to make laces shorter . . . some kind of sharp thing that might cut the laces. We can only await the Edison or Einstein who will invent such a device.
Thank you! And it's better. Not perfect for thin feet, it's not as wide in the toe box as the 8, which I personally like (I have narrower feet, too). - Jake
Yes I would. These shoes are much more everyday friendly compared to the 8s and 7s. And I have not! They're on the radar though and in the works in the upcoming weeks! - Jake
If u want the ultimate comfort U need to get reebok twistform blaze 3.0 Most comfy trainer ever the insole is the best in the world special green memory foam the material around the whole trainer is ultimately comfortably Bought the reebok nano 9 they don’t feel better I like to take the insole from the twistform blaze and put them inside my reebok sole fury trainer ultimate comfort
Yo - Definitely not wrong about comfort, but with a shoe like the Nano 9, you're getting a lot more stability, which can cause the comfort to decrease a bit. Love the advice for a comfortable model though! - Jake
Vector is a big turn off. Nano 8 are so much better looking. I like the idea of them being better for running though - but don’t do enough running for it to be a factor. Hate the bunching. Shame, had high expectations. Love the 8s so will be sticking with them for as long as they are available.
@@Worldwidetrivia That's tough because the Nano is solid option, along with the NOBULL Trainer, but neither of these models have great arch support. The Nano .9 would probably be your best bet for finding some support in a lower heel-to-toe drop trainer. - Jake
BarBend is there any other training shoe or running shoe which has arch support and I can use it in the gym or would you recommend using insoles in nano 9?
Excelente se ve el nuevo modelo de reebok con el vector, regresen el logo original! Adidas despierta que tienes en reebok un gran potencial para competir e igualar en ventas a nike, regresa a reebok al baloncesto!
Thanks, man! Not incredibly slimmer. In terms of other models, I still think the 8 is the best comparison. I think if you're used to the 8, then you should be fine with the 9, but I always recommend trying a pair on if you can first. - Jake
Hmm, well the nano 8 felt kind of wide for me in my true to size. I had to tie laces down really right to prevent heel slippage, think sizing a half size down on the nano 9 would be a good idea for me?
@@coerc4831 Yeah, Matt. I think that would be a good bet for sure if you're concerned about width! Personally, I thought these fit pretty true, but if you're worried, then a half size down might be the move. - Jake
That top eyelet is for lacing the heal lock lace. Here's a good vid on how to do that (and this is why you need longer laces): ruclips.net/video/OBbc6TackDQ/видео.html
Are nobull trainers overpriced for what they offer? They seem too simple and non innovating compared to nanos, inov, metcons and multiple other shoes in the market.
Eh - It's hit or miss depending on what you want. IMO, if you're on a budget, then pass on them. However, if you like their design and brand mission, then they're a fine training shoe - but you're right, they're kind of a "no frills" style shoe, which is a perk or miss for many. They're fine for training, but there's no denying that they're priced a bit high for what they offer. - Jake
My mechanics are by no means perfect, but I can move! Have you ever tried sprinting all out in 8s? The pick up & slow down can be pretty brutal when it comes to the slap I'm referencing in the video (especially when tired). - Jake
So disappointed in these shoes. The 8s were excellent these are not an improvement. Also for the 1st time in my life I'm having issues with the smell. They are so rank I cant even keep them in the house and after 3 weeks I'm prob just going to bin them. The 8s I worn everyday for over a year. Trotted around the Sahara on holiday in them and never had any smell so they have def changed something material wise
@@Barbend same. In general they were, good comfort wise etc but I have had to go back to wearing my old 8s. The 9s are my lawn mowing shoes now. Would love to know what they changed thats causing it. I'm 40 and it's the 1st pair of shoes I have ever owned where this was an issue. ??
@@Barbend for a crosstrainer definitely not worth it. For specialized shoes like the Reebok Legacy Lifter or Nike Romealo $130 is a steal. Simply for the fact they will last years for most lifters. Something tells me with regular wear 6 months before these are trashed.
@@bmstylee Hey man, I'm with ya there. I always mention that there are great options out there for the cost conscious shopper. Also, with every new model comes fat sales on older models, so there's never a need to buy new unless you truly want to. I think it really comes down to what you want though, right? It's always a gamble with a cross trainer's durability because everyone trains and wears them differently, all we can do is suggest based off of consistent construction traits we notice, test, and feel. Now, if in 6-months folks are noticing a big durability downfall, then I'll be here as the first one to say - pass on this model! - Jake
Honestly, I think you'll be safe going true to size in these. These form fit the foot a bit better than the 8, but if you often run on the smaller side of shoe sizes, then it might be a safe bet. Can you try them on beforehand? - Jake

The Nano has been the unsung hero for wider feet for a couple years now! Thank you, Luke. - Jake
I tried it in a store, it is completely different shoe from 8. Definitely consider getting it as it’s much more comfortable to wear in general
Right? Those were my favorite perks for the shoe as well! - Jake
Tie your laces differently, namely in such a way that instead of 2 loops, you have 4 loops. Then all your problems are solved and it looks even better!
Can't wait for this shoe. Nike (Metcon) has rested on it's laurels and has failed to do anything with the Metcon. (The released pics of the metcon 5 look horrid)...I am glad Reebok went back to the drawing board and gives us a new shoe and not another iteration like 7 > 8 was. Great review!
It's one of the best from the last few years, and I hope you the feel same. Thank you for watching & commenting, Michael! - Jake

The Nano 8 is INCREDIBLE so if they improved that it HAS to be the best shoe yet.
Picked these up (black with a different weave upper) for only 80 today. Got them for use with my One wheel and figured the wide heal, good grip and stability would be good for skating. One compliant after ringing about 10km my feet felt like they were on fire. I think just stopping a bit more often and stretching my feet would fix this.

I will wait for sale, design are great, Delta logo was better looking for me, the only functional addition it's the extra cushioning.
Nano 8 at moment are great shoes.
Hope Reebok fix the long laces and the ugly bun that is made by squeezing them
Thanks for review
Thank you for watching! Oh yeah, the Nano 8 sale should be preetttyyy nice come early June. - Jake
If you still don’t have a pair I think today or tomorrow is the last day for the code lastcall which gives you 50% off
What about size for nano 9? Is it same as in nano 6,7? My normal size for nano is 8.5US, should I take same size nano 9?
I prefer the look of the 8 but these don't have that hard shudder when you run. The design is bit meh I'd prefer the larger Delta on the sides. Apart from that its a great shoe.

You're welcome, thank you for checking it out! - Jake
The nano 8 tread with it's thin angled knobs looks like it would wear easier on asphalt or concrete then the nano 9.
Do you know how the Nano X is different? I do sprints on turf, grass and stairs (concrete) and lots of walking. I NEVER "jog" or do long runs though.
I always double knot so no issues for me
How stable were they for squats? Any compression noted when you put weight on the bar?
They were fine, IMO. Note, I only squatted up to 315 lbs in them, but I pulled up to 455 lbs and did a little bounce at the top like all the cross training shoes I test and noticed minimal compression.

Can I use this shoe for playing racquetball and also for gym?

It's this good for people with plantar fasciitis?
Neeeed a pair of these, payday I’m gonna buy a pair
The rubber in the heel is harder then then in the forefoot. The rubber in the forefoot is soft and wears out easily.

It's solid!
