The Reebok Nano X3 is the thirteenth model to debut in Reebok's popular Nano cross-training shoe line.
The Nano X3 was designed to build upon the versatility of the Reebok Nano X2 while fixing some of the construction features that held that model back. As a fan of the Nano X2, I was excited to put the Nano X3 to the test.
In my Reebok Nano X3 review, I'll cover all of the key details that you should know before investing in this shoe.

15:18 Final Remarks
Overall, I'm a fan of the Reebok Nano X3 and how it's performed across all of my training tests.
This shoe feels better regarding its fit and I'm excited to see that Reebok fixed some of the durability issues that plagued the prior two Nano models.
There are a few training and fit contexts where I don't think the Nano X3 will fit seamlessly, but it's been a good shoe for the most part.

They really made some great changes! Makes me really want to get my hands on these. The most complete reviews you’ll get from the man himself!. Great job Jake!
I'd wait for more colorways and sales, honestly, especially if you're not in dire need of something new! Thank you, sir!
Great to see the Nano is back on form. I’ve been really temped by the Haze Trainer but as a grad student/instructor I qualify for a Reebok discount, so it might be tough to beat. Thanks for putting in the training to test this Jake!
Either way, don't think you can go wrong with those two. Thanks for checking out the video, friend!
Love the new look, my friend!
I've been loving breaking these in. Much improved over the Nano X2.
Thank you and that's awesome. Love to hear that!
Great review my friend!! Bringing value to the fitness community, love that 💪💪💪💪
Ayyy, thank you!
Thank you for the review. I do CrossFit and I’m looking for a new pair of shoes, so this video was very interesting and helpful.
And the haircut looks great on you.
Thanks for checking it out and thank you! It was time to cut the caveman locks.
@@thatfitfriend ☺
Very cool Reebok sent that lift and run chasis to you. Really like my X2's and am waiting on my Haze trainers to arrive now. Will for sure pick a pair of the X3's up when more colorways are out and Reebok does their usual sales as the year goes on.
Yeah, I have an interview with Tal Short that I plan to post and was like, "dude, you have to send me that so I can see it in person, LOL".
Keep me posted on the Haze I'm stoked for you to try them and the X3!
@thatfitfriend Jake, your videos are legit! Love your content and what you stand for, also you lift like a monster - would like to hear more about you and your training!
Appreciate you, brother! I can implement more of that content as we progress through 2023!
Hi Jake, another excellent review video on such an expected shoe, really good job! I was wondering, if you don't mind, if you could explain a little bit why the Lift and Run chassis helps with stability in heavier lifts by compressing, when at least I thought that compression of the midsole is to be avoided for lifting. Thank you!
Thank you, sir! Great Q.
What I mean by that is when squatting, for example, the internal Chassis compresses and lays flat with the midsole. The midsole doesn't compress a ton so you have a "flatter" surface to train on and when I say "compression" it's only oriented towards the Chassis that is designed to compress when loaded!
Just got mine last week. I love them! It's like what the X1 and X2 should have been. I'm 6'2" 105-110KG, did some warm up snatch balances for my warmups the other day and felt very good. I switched to my Reebok Legacy Lifters and gotta say X3 gives much better heel stiffness than X1 and slightly better than X2.
Love hearing that!
You rock mate! Regards from Mexico!
You rock! 🤝
Great review! Very usefull. Which shoe would you recommend as the best for functional trainning as well as crossfit? Thanks man!
Nano X3, Reign 5, or RAD ONE (a little more CF specific but awesome if you can get a pair)!
Thank you 🤝
@thatfitfriend thanks for the review. The current lifting shoes I have is the Reign 4 AMP Pro which is a really good shoe but it's wearing out now. I find myself doing a lot of walking and jogging now because I am trying to lower my weight so my options were the X3 or the Metcon 9. I also watched your review where you put those two up against each other and made my decision based on that review to go with the X3 for the type of training that I do. I will receive them on Tuesday this week coming. Thanks for a great review.
😊
Heck yech, please keep me posted on how you like them!
@@thatfitfriend thanks bud I just got them like 7 hours ago!
@@thatfitfriend I did half an hour walk in it just to see, you are right, the shoe is a bit stiff but It'll probably get a bit soft in the coming weeks. Nonetheless, I am happy with my purchase.
@@daniyaalmaneveld3779 yeah, 1-2 weeks and they’ll feel better, imo! Happy to hear!
Doing 2 years of Freeletics now and always used my Asics Running Shoes for it. But now i ordered the NanoX3 an i´m really looking forward to test it out in 3 days.
Ay, stoked for you to try them!
Woahhh dude hope your face is surviving alright in that cold Colorado winter :P
Also, dope review as always 💯
Haha, low-key I noticed the cold on my head! Monday it was like 0 degrees and my scalp was FEEEELING that 😂
Thank you!
I bought the white X3s and love them. I have the 10s,11s,and the 12s. These are very comfortable and really like them over the 12s.
Love hearing that 💪
Comparing to the 10s, how does the x3 fit I. Your usual size?
Thank you for the great review! Last week I ordered the Metcon 8's, but thought they were too tight. I don't have really wide feet, still it felt like they were too tight near the mid foot.
Now I ordered the Reign 5's and X3's. I like to do short runs/stair climbing, barbells and squads. Which of the three would be best in your opinion?
The X3 or Reign 5 would be best. I’d suggest trying both and seeing which resonates best with you. They both have different drops so you’ll likely feel more comfortable with one over the other! But performance wise, both should be solid!
Your mustache is gone?! NOOOO!!!!!
Great video as always!
Haha, I’ll grow back some face fuzz soon enough! Thank you 🤝
Ngl, this reminds me of the time Ron Swanson shaved his stache. But like the material overlap in these, just aesthetics - doesn't affect performance - review is 🔥 as always. Thanks
Haha, I'm here for the Ron Swanson reference. Thank you, my friend!
"Oh yeah, Reebok is back." I will enthusiastically agree with that statement my friend. The X2 ripped by the 4th rope climb on me twice. Not the X3. Hopefully this holds. As we have discussed in the past I like the Rad One as the best OVERALL CrossFit shoe. Because of availability issues with the Rads I am hoping the Reebok X3 can claim that title. So not to be redundant I agree with your other conclusions about the shoe to this point. I sized 1/2 size down and they are just a little more snug than the X2, so I would still suggest with a normal width foot sizing down. From my POV the haircut makes you look younger but, your girls opinion is the important one. (:
I'm hoping, too! Feels like the first Reebok since the X that I can trust when tackling different types of WODs. I appreciate you sharing sizing insights for others, too.
2023 should be (fingers crossed) an exciting year for CF-focused shoes. Now, I'm curious to see if the Metcon 9 is going to be a step in the right direction like the X3 or a bust.
hey Jake! great video! i’m looking for trainers with a focus on strength training (squat, deadlift, etc) but also support (or are at least tolerable for) short sprints on the tread. would you suggest these or something else, like the metcon 8s?
Nano should work fine, imo. I’d skip on the Metcon as their comfort for sprints is pretty sun-par.
Could also look into the TriBase Reign 5 if you want a flatter shoe. That’s a 2mm drop compared to the Nano’s 7mm
Don't forget to allow feet to splay and maybe centimeter of space for toes to move and flex and prevent bunions for sure.
Z-liner insoles are amazing, check them out, really compliments any shoe that they can fit in. Try them, your workouts and Olympic lifts will thank you.
Very detailed review. Are X3 as width as nano 4? I change for Metcon for better fitting in toes box but run is now not confortable.
Hey! It should be comparable, but do note...I'm going off of memory here. I gave my 4s away forever ago. I wish I still had them so I could put them side by side for you!
I tried on X2's TTS and it felt narrow through my midfoot. I've seen you address midfoot width in some others such as inov-8 being narrow down the middle. I've been on a shoe review binge, just waiting to pull the trigger on my wide feet. Do you notice any difference in midfoot width, basically through the arch, between x2 and x3? Thanks for all the reviews, they're great.
A bit, but I'm not sure you'll find the X3 is different enough to be comfortable for you, honestly. Its last construction is pretty similar to the X2 and while I like its midfoot fit better than the X2, I don't think it's different enough to be worth you investing in them just to return them, IMO.
Hey Jake,
I recently got a pair of X3 but can't decide which size to keep. I got both 8 and 8.5 but and they both fit. I haven't used them in the gym yet. The 8 is a bit tighter of course but still comfortable. Should I stay with the tighter shoes or just go with 8.5. Love the content as well. Super informative
Shoot, I'm just now getting this comment! I think YT had a backlog because I just got like 15 comments from a few days ago.
I think it comes down to your comfort preferences and if you have heel slip in the bigger size. If you're cramming your toes in the 8 and your heel isn't popping out in the 8.5, stick 8.5. Conversely, if you're sliding around/heel slipping in the 8.5, then snugger is the move!
This sounds like the perfect training shoe for me.
Looking for a relatively flat sole for squats, durable materials, comfy enough to walk on an incline treadmill (I don´t like to run).
Hi Jake, great detailed review. my current X2 is US size 11, does that mean i should go for 11.5? im wide-footed.
Ehhhh, I would try the same size in these to start then adjust accordingly!
And thank you!
great review, with the 4 out i just picked up a clearance X3 pair, never tried on; black upper with red outsole. $50CDN ($37USD). nice shoe.
Dang, that's a great deal! Thank you!
Had the x, now going for the x3 😊
Hey Jake!
I got my X1, last year, after your review. I'm really happy with it! Thanks, man!
But now, after this review... I'm thinking about the X3! hahaha
If I go for it, it would be online so, about the size... Should I get the same size that I have with x1?
(Sorry for any grammatical mistake. Not my mother language)
Hey, go same size!
Thank you 🤝
@@thatfitfriend Thanks!
🤘
Im someone whos looking to replace my Nano 8 cause they are deadbeat to the ground and needs to be shelfed forever. Would you recommend this ($145 when converted in my country) over Nano X2 on sale(I can get it for around $75)?
My options are this, Metcon 8, UA Tribase reign 5, Nano X2.
I do mostly classes, light lifting, treadmill, HIIT.
Great review as always.
Hmmm, the Nano X2, Reign 5, then Metcon 8 in that order.
Reebok is also launching the Nano 2 again very soon so it may be worth waiting for that if you like the older iterations. They’re great shoes.
Thank you!
Hi Jake, I have a question about size and how this shoe is supposed to fit. Basically my right foot is a bit longer and it's roughly a bit more than 29cm. The US 12 is 30cm but i'm noticing threre's room in my toebox which is higher in the left shoe (roughly 2cm). Do you think that for crossfit training I should go down of half a size? I don't know if there's the risk to have not enough room in my toebox. Could you kindly suggest? Thank you!
IMO, if they're comfortable and you're not experiencing heel slip issues/sliding around in them while training, then sizing down may not be needed. Tough to say, though, because a lot of this in individual preferences. I always say let comfort/performance dictate the size that works. Some folks like a snugger fit while other enjoy a looser fit!
What would you recommend between these and nike free metcon 5 for versatile training. Hiit classes, short runs and light weight training classes.
Nike Free Metcon 5!
Banker bro Chad lol. Reebok needs to hire you for their nano and lifter lines. Im curious to try the new lift system. I did feel the x2 and x1 to be too cushioned or soft when going heavy with the squats. Felt like my feet would shake a little trying to stabilize.
😂 or better yet, I should build my own shoes!
Yeah, if you felt that way and noticed it a ton then this model will be pretty similar, IMO. Works fine for most of my strength work, but if I’m pushing numbers I’m opting for something different that’s a tad more stable so it may not make sense for your preferences!
I have been looking for a replacement for my old worn out tennis shoes, especially since I recently started my gym journey. I am looking for something versatile that I can wear everyday to work but will still be supportive enough for squats/deadlifts. I looked into Strongfeels, but they seem a little more lifting-specific. I'm not sure I'm ready to invest in full-on lifting shoes just yet.
Strong would be versatile enough for you, imo. They’re not like a Metcon 9 which are super lifting specific.
Grats on starting the journey! Super exciting :)
Would you recommend them for HIIT workouts? Or is it better to go with something else?
The main criteria: lightweight, decent stability and good for jumping. And not too narrow toe box 😅
Yeah, they should suffice for you! I'd give them a shot and if they don't work we can try other models to find you the ideal fit.
does it have arch support ? if not since i need it in my shoes (however not too much something like the kayano from asics) what shoe would you recommend that i can also run and lift with ? thanks in advance!
They should give you some! Worth trying, IMO. Reebok is pretty good about returns, too!
Hi!! Are the X3 similar to the Nano 8 in sizing? I have a pair 8's in 10 US and they feel a little big, maybe a 9,5 would have been perfect and I don't know which size of X3 buy, my feet are 27 cm (10,6 inch)
I’d go 9.5 in the Nano X3!
Your reviews are always on point.
I’ll wait and see the vibes of the Metcon 9.
But good to know there’s an option if there’s a sale during the year!
Thank you so much! I'm excited for the 9 as well. Inb4 we're letdown, LOL
I'm looking to upgrade from my trusty Metcon 4s after about five years now (they're barely hanging on...). I've always been a Nike guy and was going to wait for the Metcon 9 though these look amazing too. I know no one can tell the future but would you recommend the Nano X3 or waiting to see if the Metcon 9s can match / beat these?
That's a tough one...IMO, I'd wait for the 9 if the 4s will give you a few more months but keep an eye on X3 sales/coupons for that model. If you can find an X3 for $110 then I would grab a pair. If not, I'd just wait for the 9 since you're a Nike guy!
@@thatfitfriend thanks so much Jake!! I'll go easy on my Metcon 4s and wait until Q3/4 this year for the new Metcon 9!
Muchas gracias por tu revisión de la #NANOX3 de #Reebok !!
Pude averiguar las especificaciones que necesitaba para decidir mi compra!
#Dios les bendiga amig@s!
Y ahora a entrenar! Saludos desde Chile !!!
I do mainly at home dumbell, cardio,abs, some running and walking workouts. I workout with weight/cardio/abs 5 days a week. I also have narrow feet and finding shoes is a pain. Will this shoe work for me?
It should be fine, imo! Worth trying at least, then at least you'll have a better idea of what fit/works better for you and I can help you narrow down options with more context!
I have a flat-ish foot and I’m looking for a good barefoot shoe for parkour. I need a flexible/light shoe with really good grip, I can’t decide on a pair, any recommendations? I heard the feiyues are classics but should I invest in a pair that will last longer with a wide toe box?
Have your eye on any in particular? I feel like a Vivobarefoot Primus Lite III could be okay, or the Inov-8 Bare-XF 210 V3 / Xero Shoes Zelen/360. Tough, though, since that's necessarily my performance niche!
Hi Jake! Great video! Would the Nano X3 work for running on the treadmill as well along with floor workouts? I usually run for 20-30 mins (2-3 km) on the treadmill as a part of my workouts
They can, but will likely feel dense if you’re used to running shoes. Open to other hybrid options?
@@thatfitfriend Thanks Jake! Yes I am open to hybrid options. Please suggest some options. I am currently using a New Balance 517 V2 Cross trainer for my workouts at Orange Theory for over a year, not a running shoe and it's ok. Looking for something better as my current one is almost worn out.
У меня плоскастопие , будут ли при долгой хотьбе уставать стопы ? Или лучше рассмотреть чтото другое с мягкой подошвой ?
I still love my nano 8, how do you compare it with the x3? I know Its a really specific question but i will apreciate your comments.
Also would be awsome if you compare all the 13 nanos
Regards
Nano X3 gives you more range IMO. And it has a slightly wider fit which I like!
I don’t have the 13 Nanos anymore. A lot of older models have been tossed in moves or given away!
New hair review
Pros:
1)More aerodynamic for short and mid range runs
2)breathable for outdoor/summer workouts and pickle ball game
Cons:
1)less Viking like intimidation
2)need to adjust hat rotation.
Overall:
Solid for multi case use, but not the best for more niche workouts
LOL, this legit made me laugh out loud at the coffee shop I'm working in.
Also I'll be curious to see the froning edition this year, hopefully it goes back to being similar to the x froning edition
YES. Fully agree. I'm stoked about the Adventure and if that model will keep or change the outsole used on the X3 since it's not as aggressive regarding tread pattern. We shall see!
@Jake | That Fit Friend the adventure is a curious model for me too. I almost bought the x2 they released that was meant for cold weather. I was also a fan of their national geographic editions.
For both CrossFit and general weightlifting nothing super heavy which would be better option x3 or RAD ONE?
Both are great. If you can get your hands on a pair of RAD ONE, I'd say go with that model as it's a great shoe and it's always nice supporting small companies, but the Nano X3 works well if you can't find any RADs!
The original Barbend No bull trainer reviewer is back! 😅
Hahah, the locks are gone
I would’ve bought these asap if they had the same color way as the x2 with the black , white , and pure gray😭
How does the heel height of the x3 compare to the nano x2? Because I have to put a shoe lift in.
Pretty much the exact same!
Hey! How will these compare to nike metcons? Will mostly be doing olympic lifting + regular lifts (squats, Front squats) + a little bit crossfit?
Do you have Metcons now? What do you like about them?
Nano X3 will give you more versatility for short runs, jumping, and cross-training. Lifting wise, they're okay and will be a comparable option. Note they have a higher drop than the Metcon which could be hit or miss based on your preferences.
For lifting metcon are much better, Best stability for a cross training shoes
My X1's were destroyed by rope climbs. Hopefully the X3's hold up better. I mean, is a shoe really a Crossfit shoe if you can't rope climb in them?
That's how I feel, too, rope climbing isn't the most programmed movement, but at the same time...it's kind of like a right of passage for a shoe to be a really stellar CrossFit shoe.
This is why I had folks mad at me for not including the Nano X2 in my Best CF shoe 2022 list, but for $140...if they break after a week, I can't recommend them for that context. I'm hoping the X3s stand strong!
So i have the nano x1 adventure and used them for a military fitness test and was rough for me during the 2 mile run. Will this be better for me or do you have any suggestions?
I think it would be a little better, but it's still not going to be a plush ride. Are you open to trying other brands this year?
@@thatfitfriend I honor your suggestions.
Overall which would you say is best for CrossFit between this shoe and the metcon 8?
I'd go Nano X3 barring any durability issues. They're more versatile as well whereas the Metcon 8's heel tanks their performance for running/daily wear.
What trainers would you recommend for someone with fairly flat feet that needs good room in the arch? I’ve tried several trainers that are supposed to be wide, but they go narrow in the arch still. Thanks!
Did you try the Nano X2 and were they a no go? Also, have you tried the Altra Solstice XT 2? They're not the best for CrossFit, but they have a decent width to them.
Not yet. I thought I remembered you saying they go narrow in the arch. So I didn’t bother. Maybe I remembered that wrong though.
@@thelovelybajan The Nano X2 can be hit or miss through the midfoot, IMO. Some folks with wider feet like it while others find it unbearable. I don't want to rule it out because it would be a stronger performer than the Altra but I do tread lightly with it due to sizing being tough over the internet. Might be worth seeing if you can find a pair on sale to test and see, then you can return them if you need and you're not out a bunch of money waiting for the return to go through?
Thanks! Love your videos. They were a great help.
Jake, what do you think of these sneakers for practicing HIIT? Or recommend another model?
These work!
If you want a plusher shoe, then going with options like the PUMA PWR Nitro Squared or Nike Free Metcon 5 can be a good call!
@@thatfitfriend Thanks. Finding Puma sneakers here in Brazil is very difficult. But I will compare the Metcon values with the Nano X3.
I've been doing a bit of research and I'm fairly new to these types of shoes, but I was wondering if anyone can tell me if it is ok to do lo bar squats with these specific shoes or should I opt for something with a lower heel-to-toe drop. Are deadlifts with this heel-to-toe drop ok to use as well or will have have to change some things?
You're fine using them for low-bar and deads. As you get more niche and serious with your training you'll start to learn if you like a drop or not, but starting out/getting more serious, I always recommend trying out multiple things to see what works and going from there!
All that said, I wouldn't overstress it atm.
@@thatfitfriend thank you so much for the feed back! I'll definetly take that into consideration. I appreciate all the help and your videos have been very helpful. Keep up the good work!
Have you ever trained with the nano 2.0? With the re-release of the 2.0 not sure if I should get that or the x3. The 2.0 seems to be loved by a lot of crossfitters. What do you think? Which do you prefer?
Forever ago!
Have a pair on the way and plan to get some content up on them in the near future. Out of town this weekend so I haven’t been able to do much work!
@@thatfitfriend awesome! Looking forward to your review! Love your channel btw!
@@manbearpig637 thank you so much! Appreciate you checking out the videos 🤝
If I do primarily heavy lifting, like power building style, how would you say these are? Are they flat soled?
They could work...but not totally flat. They have a 7mm heel-to-toe drop if that's a turn off for you. If you want a model with a truly flat sole that has a 0mm heel-to-toe drop, then you'll want to look into barefoot shoes, the Adidas The Total, or shoes like Vans (not my fave regarding optimized performance, but can work for sure!).
@@thatfitfriend ty! Is the 7mm heel better for optimizing performance? Could you explain why?
A year on how has it held up for hyrox have you heard? Ok for the runs.
Have held up pretty dang well!
Almost didnt recognize you without the beard bro! 😂
My new skin 😂 My dogs and gf felt the same, LOL.
Reebok nano x3 or nike legend or nike mc trainer 2. Which one os the best?
Nano X3 hands down
I have a mild flat foot, and I need a shoe for squats and other weight-lifting exercises. is this good?
Eh, the midfoot may annoy you. What do you currently wear?
Other options to explore would be the Metcon 9 / Born Primitive Savage 1 / Reebok Nano 2.0.
@@thatfitfriend Thanks for your prompt response. I use the Nike Revolution 6 with orthotic sole.
Do you think these would be ok for incline treadmill sessions?
Should be okay depending on the volume, honestly. If you're doing intervals or walking, then I think you'll be set.
When it comes to the shoe, I think reebok is trying to hey back to what the nano used to be compared to the x1 and the x2.
I bought a pair of x2s for a friend who was trying to get into the gym again after your video of the shoe sizing for different feet anatomy. I watched the whole video and found that the x2 was probably her best option considering the foot width. She loves them and they fit perfectly.
Heck yeah, I love hearing that and props to you for helping someone else on their journey!
@@thatfitfriend I had to reach out to you on insta back in November ish to ask about sizing, you always got my back.
@@daveyadict_ Always, my dude!
How it’s for circuit and high level boxing training ?
Should be okay, tbh!
I’m US men size 11.5M. Is this true to size or should I size up/down? Thx
Should be true unless you normally swim in your 11.5s. If you have more than a thumb width at the end of your 11.5s, then maybe size down to an 11
First things first: nice haircut man!
Ayy, thank you! It was time.
Reebok logo is in back i loved that shoes , pri ce please
Just picked them on a sale at $57 😎
Between this and the rad one, which do you like better and which has a bigger toe box?
I like the RAD ONE better, but the Nano X3 has the wider toe box! Should be set in both, tbh, but if you need more width - go Nano.
@@thatfitfriend thanks man! Love your channel btw!
Is they good for strongman?? What about heavy farmers walk or Yok race?
I’d go for a Nano 2.0 if you’re looking into Reebok!
WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MY FIT FRIEND?
Replaced with a much more vanilla looking stunt double 😂
Any comments on midfoot support compared to x2?
Feels similar overall. Less rigid through the midfoot/heel due to the TPU being removed, but I think it's still enough for most!
Just grabbed these on sale for half price a month ago, i have wide midfoot and found the plastic clip hurt the sides of my feet. Do you know if this clip will "break in".
Oy, that’s one of the issues with these.
It should as get the material to loosen, but if it’s unbearable now I’d return if you can
@@thatfitfriend appreciate the reply, cant return unfortunantly 😅 Mind you I only wear them twice a week but its not unbearable since the rest of the shoe is great! ill persist bit longer and if no luck ill just accept they arent for my foot shape and try something else.
@@shaunchang-time6698 that’s a good approach, imo. Hoping they break in more for ya
Keep me posted!
@@thatfitfriendhi mate just an update!! Can confirm the nano x3 does break in around the midfoot region. The plastic clip no longer hurts but can still feel it a tiny bit on the lateral side. So they do fit wider midfoots just needs plenty of break in time and patience 😅
Just got back from training, shoes are great, just one thing that I felt kinda extrange, the grip in the rope is way to much, I really couldn't go down or maybe is my technique idk
Haha, feel that! You have to really loosen your grip on these. Better than breaking after 1 climb like the X1/X2, though!
@@thatfitfriend yea maybe I have to get used to these ones, I have been using the nano 6 for almost five years, they are unbreakable
@@martinotermin4179 100%. Normal to take a few workouts to adjust pressure etc.
Hi jake I'm new to your channel. I'm looking for a good training shoe for my wide feet. I mainly like to do a lot of lifting like squats. What would you recommend for me?
What do you currently wear? And welcome!
@@thatfitfriend I actually wore my converse but realised they were too narrow at the toe box and held back my power, It's why I avoided Nikes as well. I don't mind anything expensive either. Should I get the Reebok Nano X3s?
@@nicklancer3923 Worth a shot, IMO! I think you'll notice a big difference with them compared to Converse, but tbh, you won't know until you try them out!
@@thatfitfriend Thanks for the fast reply you've made my day! Love your reviews btw :)
@@nicklancer3923 welcome! I always try to reply quickly if I’m online working. Also, feel free to reach out on IG if I ever do drag my feet 😅
Let me know how you like the new shoes once they arrive 🤝
Ooooo look at that fresh cut
Chop chop!
Stupid question..... How much space must be between the toes and the end of the end of the shoe?
Depends on your preferences, tbh! I usually like about a 1/2 inch, but it also depends on the shoe and how I'm training in it. As long as you're not having heel slip or jamming your toes a bunch then you're probably fine!
How are these during deadlifts? Do these shoes help deep squatting?
Not bad for deadlifts. Work for most intensities programmed in WODs/cross-training workouts.
In re: Squats: They can, but there are multiple layers to that ask! If you like slightly higher drops in your training shoes, then they should work well.
@@thatfitfriend I mean wouldn't higher drops be better for deep squats? For deadlifts do they keep you stable and allow foot heel drive in the floor? Do they allow the correct foot positioning during deadlifts and squats? Sorry for asking so many questions, I am asking because I am flatfooted and I am trying to make sure these shoes are for me.
So walking in these for 30mins to an hour, how will that do?
Should be fine!
How do you feel this shoes while you squatting?
They’re pretty solid!
Fresh Face like Nano X3☺👍
😅😅
With the x4 out now, these are on a steep discount. Really hard to turn down if you’re needing a new shoe. With strike movements customer service reputation and even as much as I love rad 1’s, their hype train drop business model and availability of size and color ways is rather frustrating. Makes the deals on these even sweeter!
Gotta love when new models come out and drop older prices!
How wide is the toebox- it sounds like this is a tighter front?
Yeah these are narrower than prior models, what do you wear now
@thatfitfriend Crap! Just ordered a pair. My old pair (must be 2-3 years old! ) are Reebok Nano "crossfit' which have a nice large toebox.
@@brunodanner7777 just try em and keep em clean in case you need to return!
@thatfitfriend yeah, ive got a click and collect so I will try first. Got them on sale for 120NZ which is a great price over here. Thanks for the outstanding video.
@@brunodanner7777 hell yeah, that’s sick. Keep me posted, have other suggestions if they’re a no go
Thank you
Hi boss, it's me again. Will it fit for wide foot? I have 12 cm in a widest part of my foot. I like this model
It can be okay...but def not the best. If you want more toe box width go Nano 2.0, Born Prim Savage 1, or Dropset 2/3
@@thatfitfriend Thank you! I wish you great form 🤝✊
@@stencloid1 appreciate you 🤝🫡
Woah… who’s the handsome new guy?! Haha.
Ha! Been too long since being clean cut. Missed the low maintenance.
Hey you cut your hair!!! Took me awhile to recognize it's Jake My Fit Friend🤣 The Nanos are too wide for my feet. Maybe this Nano will be better for a small narrow and according to my boyfriend "baby" feet.. I'm 5 feet and he's 6 feet 1 ish🤣
I did...I'm now your finance bro friend, lol.
I'd go a half-size down for your foot anatomy in this model. Definitely let me know how they work! Curious to see how more athletes/lifters interact with this shoe's sizing compared to the Nano X2.
@Jake | That Fit Friend when this becomes available in Canada I will definitely give it a try and let u know🙂
Jake,
I am a guy despite the name…(gf’s account lol) I’m looking for a shoe that I can squat and deadlift in, do kettle bells swings, etc. but also able to run 1-2 miles and do sprints. Can you help me out man?
Thanks,
Peyton
Hey! Few questions so I can better help.
What do you currently wear now? Do you like a lower or higher heel-to-toe drop? What's your foot width like?
@@thatfitfriend I currently wear where new balance 990’s which are really only good for running, but not even that great. I do know however that these shoes are not good for squatting because they do not have a flat bottom. Also, I have a high arch and a narrow foot
I LOVE THAT DESING AND IS IMPOSSIBLE BUY IT TODAY :_((((((((((((((((((((( Look that colors bro!!! :___________________((((((((((((((((((((
Are you a size 10 & live in USA? I’ve bought a new colorway and will part ways with this pair if you are!
@@thatfitfriend I have 11/11’5 and living in spain 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 regards bro 💕🥹
@@palingenesia8496 Dangit! We tried. Hope they drop more of this colorway for ya!
Whoa....right off the bat, the hair and the mustache...They're gone.
First time I've been clean since the pandemic! Feels good, tbh. I don't miss the hair, lol.
@@thatfitfriend good thing is, hair and mustaches can grow back if you do miss it.
@@daveyadict_ Big facts, sir. I'll grow some stubble back but I DO NOT miss the hair maintenance. I'm lazy at heart, lol.
OMG, who are you?!???!? much cleaner look!!!! u’ll have to trainer harder so u can run away. run away from all the women chasing u.
LOL, where are these women chasing me?
I just bought them for 105 Euro here in Spain
Not bad!
i just got mine for 45 euro 😉
