Nike makes a wide range of training shoes, and it can be confusing to decide which model best suits your specific needs.
For example, should you go with the Nike Metcon 9, or will they be too stable and dense for the classes and cross-training workouts you would like to do? Which Nike model should you use for CrossFit in 2024?
In this video, I share my 5 favorite Nike training shoes for different workouts and training contexts.
0:00 Best Nike Training Shoes
0:22 Best for Lifting/CrossFit | Metcon 9
2:22 Best "Do-It-All" | Nike Free Metcon 5
4:34 Best for Classes | Nike Air Zoom TR 1
6:47 Best On a Budget | Nike MC Trainer 2
8:54 Best for Weightlifting | Nike Romaleos 4
If you're absolutely sold on Nike shoes, then I can't stress enough how important it is to find the right tools for the job.
I think, at times, Nike drops the ball on the education component of their training shoes, and using the right Nikes for your training style can make a world of difference.
I've built out individual reviews on every Nike training shoe featured in this video so every shoe has been properly vetted for its training category.

I bought the zoom tr 1’s as kind of a more casual training shoe, and I’m honestly impressed with its performance and comfort.
That’s how I see them! Almost like as a hybrid option. Just filmed that vid and included them in it!
Lived this review helped me a lot
Awesome!!
thank you for the video, very helpful:)
Stoked it helped!
Great video! ngl, my ankles hurt watching you run on the Metcon 9 haha
Haha, I took that one for the team 😂
Ive allways ran in vans
Which one do you prefer between nike metcon free 5 and reebok nano x3 ? Thank u
Great video ✌🏻❤Hello , love your work, can you please advise me between ths 2 shoes, Puma fuse 2.0 vs nike mc trainer 2 Confused between these 2, pls reply if possible
I’d go Fuse 2!
Hi Jake! Thanks for the review.
I am looking for shoes for Orange theory. Good for running on treadmill, squats and some weights lifting. Can you please suggest anything?
Thanks!
If you want Nike, go Nike Free Metcon 5 go Nike Air Zoom TR 1!
Thank you
what about in court shoes like the Nike Phantom GX 2 Club
IC Low-Top Football Shoes, clearly states football shoes but they look like they'd be good shoes for lifting weights
I haven't tried them, but if you're referencing the cleats model the lugs will create some slip
Yo, have you tried the Nike Men's Defy All Day shoes? I'm curious to know what you think of 'em.
I haven't yet! Sorry I can't speak on them...yet!
I have a question about the size of the Free Metcon 5.
My normal shoe size is 8.5(26.5cm) and the upper of the Free Metcon 5 feels tight. In this case, should I go a half size larger?
The Air Zoom TR 1 is sized fine at 8.5.
Worth a try if you’re dying to use and train with the free metcon 5!
Hi Jake, I have done my deltoid surgery in my ankle and my ankle feels instable during small runs and workout. Could you recommend me a shoe with great ankle stability and comfort for short runs and workout?
For sure!
What were you wearing before?
IMO, a Dropset Trainer 2/nano X4/TYR CXT-Trainer/NOBULL Trainer+ could be decent options. They have pretty rigid boots
@@thatfitfriend
I was using asics tiger runner and not actual gym shoes or running shoes.
Thank you for your feedback, will check our recommendations and let you know.
Hey Jake, im wondering if you could give me advice on a shoe or shoes that would be tood with custom orthotics. I have a low arch and my feet pronate. I haven't gotten any orthotics or insoles yet but I'm looking into zero drop hybrid trainers or maybe even barefoot cross trainers. I currently wear Nike Free Run 2108 for training and short runs and i wear Nike Pegasus 38 and 39 for long days on my feet at work and walking.
Ive looked at some shoes you posted about and I'm wondering if these would still work if I put custom orthotics or insoles in them
I'm interested in:
Vimana Str/ke mvnt haze trainer and hybrid trainer
Vivo barefoot
Xero Shoes
Reebok Nano X versions
Inov8
Oncloud
1hund Aerolux
Lems
Altra Solstice XT 2
So far I havent tried any of these but just going based off your recommendations
Also, do you think Pegasus 38 or 39 could be used as a cross trainer? I know they're running shoes but i wane to have a shoe that is balanced and that still gives good stability and holds up in different gym workouts
Thanks in advance!
You could technically use them, but they’ll likely have points of limitation depending on what you’re doing.
I’d look into models like Inov-8 F-Fly if you want that hybrid style training shoe. Should work with orthotics, too!
@thatfitfriend awesome thanks!
I really like the Vimana models too. I like how they look. Do you think those may be sufficient?
For pure gym purpose and same price, should I go with the zoom TR or the MC TR ? Not into CrossFit or running. Looking at pure low stack height and low heel drop!
Man, I'd look for an older Metcon 7/8 if it's possible to find them for a decent price. If not, I'd still go Air Zoom TR 1 despite them having a slightly higher stack height. They're just a better built shoe, imo.
@@thatfitfriend yeah trying to look for the Metcon, but until then I guess the zoom TR! Thanks 😊
What about sizing? I'm about to replace my Metcon 5 to 9, do I have to upsize or downsize?
True to size should be a safe call!
a bit confused.... need only for gym! Split between the Nike air zoom TR and the Nike MC TR. 🤔 on sale I can get them both for almost the same price.
Go Air Zoom TR!
@@thatfitfriend thank you! 😊 gives me more clarity.
Which do you think would be best for 2E wide foot? I'm just slightly wide but definitely not standard.
Nike Metcon 9 or Nike Free Metcon 6!
@@thatfitfriend truly appreciate your feedback!
best shoes for like trying to be explosive broad jumps squats hang clean jerks any brand
Adidas Dropset Trainer 2 / UA TriBase Reign 6. I'd start with Dropset Trainer 2!
have u tried Nike reax 8 tr? wdyt bout that shoes?
I haven't so I can't really speak on them!
No mention of the Metcon Zoom Turbo 2? Do you think Nike are phasing it out?
I do! Stock is going down so I didn’t include them since they’re wicked tough to get/getting discounted more
That's a shame, I like the Turbo.
Also Jake, just to say a big thank you for always taking the time to reply. I've left a few questions on your reviews and you have always replied. I really appreciate it and I'm sure others do too. 🇬🇧🤜💥
@@chalky7319 I do, too. Maybe they’ll build out something better this year. I just hope the air zoom tr 1 didn’t replace them.
Of course, I don’t get reviewers who don’t reply to comments. It’s the least I can do for you choosing to spend your time watching my content. Thank you 🤝
No recomiendo las Metcon 9, resbalan mucho tuve que devolverlas 😅
Muchhhhh better trainers in 2024! You ain’t wrong
All black training shoe for max 90 $?
Only considering Nike?
I think you are biased towards Metcon 9. They are really uncomfortable. They don't have the cushion at all. The major issue is that the center of the shoe is too tight. My foot arch was in so much pain. Free Metcon 5 has good cushion vise and overall comfort but is not durable. Its shoe lace loop came out very quickly while walking down a rock mountain. I have the utterly opposite feel for Metcon 9 compared to you, and I bought them after watching your video.
I don’t like the Metcon 9, lol, especially compared to other training shoes. Nike, in general, has fallen off over the last two years - but when compared to other Nike trainers it is the best in certain verticals…
Why would you use the Free Metcon for walking down a rock mountain? It’s not for that 😂
Metcon 9 ain’t for everyone and I say that a lot in all of my Metcon 9 reviews. They’re the “best” for lifting and CrossFit compared to the other models, though. Also, different folks will interpret shoes differently - it’s normal that sometimes we may not align on a model’s fit, all part of the nuance of shoes
Got a metcon 8. It was on sale for 46 dollars out the door. Jake recommend me metcon or 5. I used it for the gym.. I don't run much and am not strong to lift over 200 lbs. But once i put on the 8... I knew that other then walking and running, I don't want any air under nearby my foot because of stability. I used an asics as an eveything shoe...the one that doesn't seemed to have air underneath but i really love the stability feel and to me it is comfortable...j won't use it for all day walking or running ...
Metcon 5 vs Bsr 4
Metcon 5
Next best shoe for hyrox
Have something similar coming soon
Narrow coffins for your feetz 😅😊
Ain’t wrong! However, metcon 9 is a bit better
