Customer Reviews Nike Metcon 4 XD

This is my third pair of Metcons and I love them. I go to a boot camp-style gym, which means one day we're lifting weights and doing wall balls, and another day we're doing jump squats and burpees. They're great for all of it. I wouldn't recommend for running, but that's not what they're made for. They feel very stable for lifting, and for agility exercises.

I wear a 7.5 in most shoes, but always seem to wear half size up in sneakers. I bought this sneaker specifically for weight lifting workouts and immediately noticed a difference when I deadlifted. The sole is firm, which is great for lifting, but might not be what you're looking for if you're looking to wear it for lots of movement. I typically also bring these shoes to the gym and change into them there to keep the sole firm, plus, they aren't very supportive for walking. The toe area is also wider, which is helpful for lifting too so you can spread your toes.

I am a collector of Nike Metcons and this is my 8th pair. These did not disappoint. They are my go to shoe for HIIT/Functional Training and lifting classes. Not ideal for running but perfect for all other activities while working out. Jumping, burpees, lifting...

Wanted these shoes for free weight lifting and Beachbody workouts. Loved them at first, but after 2 weeks the left shoes started squeaking every time I walked. Then after the 3rd week, the left one started squeaking too. Super super annoying. I think its the inside plastic piece of the shoe. Thankfully I work out at home and just have myself to annoying, not a gym full of people. Plus, it seems like it doesnt give very good support at the arch and sometimes my arch will be aching a little bit after the workout. Very disappointed in how these turned out.

This is a terrific weight training shoe. My husband and I both have several pairs. It’s got a wide toe box and lets you plant your self firmly in position for better form. Great cross fit shoe. This is not a running shoe. I will buy more of these.

I did not like the color of these shoes. The white was very bright, and the coral colored bottoms were too vibrant for my taste. They felt comfortable when I was trying them on, but I returned them because of the style/colors.

My new *HAPPY SHOES* .... I use as much 'feel-good' accessories I can in my daily life as I can ... especially for gym! Keeps me super-motivated! Sadly, haven't been too lucky with my sneakers, I have wide feet and would always have trouble finding THE right sneakers that looked and felt good! Then my trainer suggested to get men's sneakers for a more comfortable fit .... so I had to say bye-bye to *pretty* sneakers and embraced somber looking ones! It was time to replace my last pair of sneakers and a quick search online pointed to these as one of the best cross-trainers out there! I do a mix of weight-training, zumba and elliptical as part of my workout routine and crosstrainers are my go-to s .... with Zappos' easy return policy, I purchased these and tried them on .... I am a size 8W and Zappos suggested I get the 8.5. Boy, oh boy, was it a struggle to get my feet into the sneakers!!!! After I loosened the laces and slid my feet in, it felt like a charm!!! Nice and snug and with the right amount of pressure in all the right places!!!! I have never ever fallen in love with my sneakers at the first go, but this time around it happened! I just hope, this NEVER EVER go out of style!

Awesome shoe! True to size and comfortable the first time I tried it on. Love the texture on the toe and foot.

I normally don't wear Nike because they are to narrow but these fit great! I love this style and they are so comfortable. I wear them for weight training and low impact HIIT training.

I normally wear a 9.5-10 depending on the brand - the Nike 10s re perfect that this show is extremely comfortable right out of the box. I am in the gym 5-6 days a week so a comfortable shoe is a must - these are much better than the Asics Gels that I have worn for years!

I normally can't wear Nike. I don't have a wide foot but Nike are usually too narrow for me. These are perfect! The stability they gave for weight training are perfect! I haven't run in them, I plan to use them for HIIT but not for distance or endurance runs.

Love this show! Definitely worth the money!

I’ve wanted a pair of these for awhile now and I’m not disappointed! I’m new to weight training and the shoes I have were not enough for lower body/leg day routines, these were exactly what I needed. I feel stable in them and they provide enough arch support without cramping my foot. They caused a little pain the first time I did cardio on a treadmill but the second go around was painless.

The Nike Metcon has great stability in the heel area is perfect for lifting at the gym. The fabric is not too stretchy in the forefoot but is still very comfortable and provides sufficient support. Not much cushioning so do not use this shoe for aerobic classes or running. Attractive style and I love the color :)

I bought these shoes for my wife to use at the gym and then she can keep her running shoes in good condition. Turns out, she’s going to need a second pair of these, one for gym and one for looking stylish AF. She loves them and gets lots of compliments. To note- these are not great for long treadmill runs or stair master days, but better for floor workouts, classes, or rowing.

The shoe met my expectations. I bought it for the sole purpose of gym workouts. It is superlative, responsive, and yet light weight.

I normally wear an 8.5, but I had to trade these in for a 9. (And the 9’s still don’t leave much room at the toe.) So these definitely run small. I like the white with hot pink soles, and these are excellent shoes for working out — weight lifting and cross training.

These shoes look really great. Love the colors and design. It definitely is wider in the toe area but I find that most cross-trainers are. For my feet, which are a bit narrow, the room in the toe area is almost too much, but I'm getting used to it. I love how stable the base is. Some reviews have noted that there is heel slippage - which I found to be true, but not to a point where it's bothersome. What does bother me is the length of the shoelaces....they are way too long and get caught under my foot and untie themselves. Otherwise, they're a good, solid cross trainer.

This is a great shoe for lifting. It provides flat wide secure footing. But not good for cross training. Sole is too hard for running. Ended up hurting my back. Still looking for a good all around shoe for lifting and running.

I was looking for a new pair of cross trainers, and bought four different pairs of shoes to try. I like lights shoes with some support. I wear a size 6 even in other Nike styles. These were awful. Mind you, I’ve used Nike Frees for years, so I like light and airy shoes. These felt too small, too clunky, too stiff...basically everything you don’t want in a shoe. I returned.

Cute shoe but not enough support for high impact workouts with lots of cardio/jumping/ quick movements. Personally would not recommend for Les MILLS, HIIT, or high impact training

These shoes hurt my feet so badly. I have worn them 5 or 6 times for about an hour at a time and each time the bottoms of my feet hurt afterward. It has been 4 days since I last wore them for a workout and my feet still hurt from wearing them. I was not expecting a lot of cushion since they are training shoes but if you have bony feet, as I do, I do not recommend these shoes.

I got these because I recently started doing more weight lifting and I needed a more stable shoe. The shoes I was wearing before were hurting my ankles and calves as they didn't have sufficient support for lifting. The hard rubber sole provides a solid stable base to help you grip into the floor. I also love the design of these and have gotten many compliments on them.

Love this shoe!!

I put these on to do some deadlifts/squats as soon as I got them in the mail. Going from my old shoes to these was like night and day. Worth every penny.
