    NIKE METCON THREAD - 7s out now

    Def waiting for the Frasers to drop.  But like a few of you the rwb's are growing on me.  I havent seen them in person, but I imagine the nike stock photo isnt accurate when considering how off the nike stock photos were for the Daring Red and Persian Violets.  Is the darker red as dark as the pics?

    My guess is this is really a bold statement at all.  Nike is light years ahead of Reebok/Adidas in technology.  While nike is developing cutting edge cushioning, flywire, flyknit, etc adidas is developing that idiotic springblade garbage and Reebok is bringing back the pump technology that was...

    Agreed.  I didnt see a picture online that was close to the actual color of the purple. IMO theres no blue tint.  Its a pastel purple.  Very feminine.  Sent mine back as well.  The daring reds are similar, couldnt find a picture online and thats just not a dudes red.  Its like a coral pink.

    The Persian Violets are a much more subdued, traditional purple that the pictures online. I tried to take a few pics, held the phone next to them and its not even close.  Its the hardest color Ive ever seen to photograph.  I dont see much of a blue tint to them.  Best way I can describe it is...

    I have 2 All black (one black with red laces, red stripes), OG Volt, Game Royal and Camo.  I hope I can snag the persians then I am done until the Frasers come out. Rodrigo or MikeD, any idea on when the persian violet V6 will hit in the us?

    Did this workout in free trainer v6 last week, and again last night in metcons just to feel the difference between both in the same, well, metcon. 30 squat Cleans/40 double unders/20 ghd 20 squat cleans/60 double unders/20 t2b 10 squat cleans/80 double unders40 ghd 5 squat cleans/100 double...

    Def not a new colorway.  The only options here are knockoffs or early production runs for testing.  The flex grooves are missing from the sole.  They just look off.

    Louisiana here too.   Excellent job on the customs, excuse me for being clueless, but how the hell did you do the glow in the dark sole?

    I wear a 9 in metcons and 9.5 in free tr v6. Frees always fit snug so this is to be expected I guess. The metcons have a wider toe box, v6 more narrow throughout. I think there's about a 3 oz diff between them. The v6 def feels like it. There's not much to the v6 so I'd worry about using them...

    The Nike Fly 1.0 shorts were perfect.  I still wear the 2.0 but I have to flip the waistband on the 2.0 because they feel about an inch longer.  Probably have 20 pairs. Lately Ive really been liking the Redline  gear shorts.  They are pricey but def durable and functional.

    NIKE METCON THREAD - 7s out now

    I can make a case for both in crossfit.  I did a workout with pull ups/double unders/hspu and ghd and felt the v6s were perfect for that workout.  If the workout has a barbell (squats, cj, snatch, etc), the metcons are going to be better.  Rope climbs, obviously metcon.  The metcons are heavier...

    Anyone in europe want to snag a pair of those Nike Free Trainer 5.0 V6 in persian violet? Finders fee!  Or if anyone knows if theyll be released in the US.

    Asides from the Fraser's, these are the 2nd best CW IMO (esp if you follow misfits programming).  Hopefully FNL gets them them soon.  The metcons have been a mix bag with the CWs so far.  With most of them looking different in person.  I thought out of the first run (I dont do orange) I would...

    They fit true to nike sizing. Not including the free line, totally a different beast. But they also loosen up more than any shoe I've worn in the past 15 years. I assume the more heavy duty materials just need a bit to break in.

    Maybe this will help you out.  Im very particular about how my shoes fit for working out.  Heres a list of what I wear in various shoes, and all fit relatively the same: Nike Free Trainer 5.0 V5 - 9.5 (the 9.0 metcons fit almost exactly the same as the 9.5 ft v5's) Nike Free Trainer 5.0 V6 -...

    Been following NT for a while, decided to join to today! I currently own the OG volt, camo, royal blue and blacks.  It seems to have been understated how much nicer the mesh is on the newer models.  Its truly a night and day difference as far as durability.  I wore the blacks on 15.5 and just...
