These arrive today. Can't wait to try them out, as my initiation into Nanos, started with the 10's. Love my X3's, but looking forward to comparing. Great review, as always. Keep up the great work.
@patlsk - I definitely like the X3's better. The 2.0 felt almost like a minimalist/barefoot shoe to me. There was a time when I trained in those types of shoes, but now that I'm getting up there in years, and having torn myself up a little in the fight game, my knees and back need a little more support and cushioning.
Joel was right about the sizing. I wear a size 9 in most of my sneakers. I have a pair of Reebok speed tr that fit well in a size 9 with the tiniest bit of space in front of my toe. With the nano 2.0 in a size 9 my toe is touching the front of the shoe.
Snagged these shoes a month go when they popped up on Reebok Canada. The 2 was my original cf shoe a decade ago. As soon as I put them on I was in love again. Been wearing a regular nobull for a few years and forgot what comfort was.
Are they still in good shape. I have read many reviews of the quality not being up to par. I read a few reviews where they came apart within 3 months. I ordered a pair but after reading the reviews, I may return them.
@@rotweilerscholar1181 funny you should ask. I noticed the other day that a piece of the rubber sole has started to separate away from the bottom of the shoe. I'm just going to glue it down but my old pair never did that.
I just noticed they changed the font on the sole to match the Reebok with the Delta logo vs the Reebok CrossFit logo. Also this is easily my favorite shoe since it's inception. I am sure the 2.023 does not disappoint.
Finally pulled the trigger and got a pair for 50% off. Kinda bummed about the men’s colorways. Like the women’s white version the best. Hopefully they will release a few more colors but I won’t hold my breath for that.
I own and love my Nano 6s in Sz 10.5, which fit great. Unfortunately, based on the advice in the comments I went a half size up in the 2 reissues and they’re too big, so now I have to resell them rather than being able to send them back to the USA. I should have stuck with the 10.5s
I bought re release several years ago and forgot about them. At this point I would get another pair of haze trainers over these not really digging the style/colors
Hi all your reviews are really informative and helpful, just got the nano 2.0, and i like them, however you nay not be able to help with my next question, i need an everyday shoe/ trainer/casual, for general wear, no CrossFit gym ect, i have flat akward feet, and my pinky toe splays and all brands I've shopped for so far pinch it, untill the nano 2.0, but im using them solely for the gym and i could only get bright red lol, not outside, any suggestions open to any brands, however i know Adidas Nike will be too narrow straight off, Thanks.
....can it casual? been looking for an alternative to Altra's and Topo Athletic, I dont want to go super minimalist outside the gym (ie Vivo's or Xero's) and i also want a little bit of a drop when i'm walking around town on cement and concrete..
how would you say they compare to the Haze Trainers for lifting and running? Especially curious about the latter since I dig the Haze Trainers for running in WODs
Someone commented that they felt more narrow in the midfoot but I didn’t experience that. I don’t have flat feet but I think the midfoot is fine as the shoes are very neutral IMO.
Hello, great review! Would you recommend me to get a Nano X3 or Nano 2.0? I do not lift superheavy weights yet and i own a Metcon 6 as my training shoes now
My first-ever crossfit shoes were the metcons 3, how does these compare against? And what would you pick between nano 2 or tribase reign 5? Great video! Always watching
Honestly I think the more competitive shoe is the Reign 5. Metcon 3s were great, stable, but not great for running and these are just not as stable, but better for all else. These would be the best metabolic conditioning shoe if that makes sense. Not a heavy lifter but capable enough and comfortable for all else.
Amazing review. If you had to include these amongst the haze, tyr, and rad one where would they land? If I had money to buy one of these for CrossFit which ones would it be? Thanks.
They’re not better than any IMO but it depends what you need. If I had to perform 100% I would be most confident in Rad, haze, x3, tyr…I’d wear nano 2 day to day and coaching because they’re comfy.
Eh, I'm in the minority and didn't really think the 2.0 was all that great. But I didn't get into crossfit until the 5 was released. I always thought the 2.0 was just a soft shoe. But if they do a remake of the 4.0 I'm in on that one.
These were my first training shoes! Can't wait to get them on the newest iteration, ordered them on Friday =D Great Review as always Joel!
Hopefully we get a reissue of the Nano 6!
Love these shoes…. I had the OG version but love the changes…. Will definitely be getting these.

how did it compare to your X3?

@@capt1941 good to know mate. thanks for sharing your experience as im contemplating between the two.. seems like X3 is the wiser choice for support

I still have my nano speed cross 2’s these look like it will meet the new era can’t wait
Just got a pair for £61!! Very impressed and great quality; more so than X2’s, of which I’ve sent two pairs back due to defects.
I haven't lifted in them yet, but walking around the house this might be the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. Wow!
I would like to see a remake of the nano 6
NANO 8!

sold , getting a couple colorways
What is the best shoes for cricket and training indoor + outdoor?
Nike: Take note on remakes for the Rom 2

No, Haze are better on both fronts. They're like a more technical Nano 2.0.
Those shoes were perfect. Then Reebok tried to get cute and ruined the shoes. I still have mine.
Thanks for the review. are theses any good for people with flat feet?

Hello, great review! Would you recommend me to get a Nano X3 or Nano 2.0? I do not lift superheavy weights yet and i own a Metcon 6 as my training shoes now
Go for Nano 2.0. Metcon 6 are plenty stable for your heavy days.
@@AMRAP Thanks for the recommendation!
You need light diffuser❤

Thank you for the response!
I can't seem to find any size 10 black Nano 2.0 in the USA, UK, or EU? What's happening with restocking these?
Amazing review. If you had to include these amongst the haze, tyr, and rad one where would they land? If I had money to buy one of these for CrossFit which ones would it be? Thanks.

@@AMRAP Thanks so much!! I appreciate all your reviews.
If I wear a 12 on the Nano 6 (perfect feel), would u still recommend 1/2 size up? Thanks
Likely yeah, my 6's are 10 and I think they're "perfect" - but my toes run into the front on a 10 Nano 2.0.
I wear a 10 perfectly in the Born Primitive savage one! Do you think a size 10 and miss you would fit the same?
Might have a little space in Nano 2 in the same size. If you have Morton’s toe I’d stick with the same but if you don’t then I would go half down.
Eh, I'm in the minority and didn't really think the 2.0 was all that great. But I didn't get into crossfit until the 5 was released. I always thought the 2.0 was just a soft shoe. But if they do a remake of the 4.0 I'm in on that one.
Hi do you have an idea how they compare in terms of toe box width with barefoot shoe like xero prios or vivobarefoot primus lites?
Close to both
@@AMRAP got it 👌
I think you mentioned this but I just want to make sure . Do the Nano 2.0 have a wide toe box?
He did say the 2023 release has an even wider toe box. The original 2012 release has a decently wide toe box as well.
@@edbauerfit, thank you 🙏🏻
Hi joel, I wear my nano 6 at size 10. Do i nid to size up or stay at size 10 wt d new nano 2? Thanks.
Might want to go with 10.5 depending on how those 6s fit. I wear the 6 in 10 as well and I needed to go up with these.
Thanks joel, big help.
Will these sell out and be gone for good? (Until the inevitable 2026 rerelease). I’m not due for new shoes, but these sound perfect for me
I think there are some more colorways planned.
How do they compare to the Metcon 7? Is switching worth it?
Depends what you want - they're not nearly as stable but theyre tons more flexible and easier to run in.
Are these similar in width in toe box to altra solstice x2?
I haven’t tried those but I’d imagine so since it’s similar to HIIT xt
Do you prefer this over the x3?
If I could only have one, it would be x3.
Nano x2 or 2.0?
Nano 2
What tank is that?
Activechill Running Singlet
X3s vs 2.0s, which has the wider toe box?
The 2.0 by far
Nike Metcon 8 are the worst training shoes I have ever owned by far! So narrow and no ground feel and every step is uncomfortable.
