Product Details
Instantly comfortable when I tried them on straight out of the box. There are so many mixed reviews on sizing, but I ordered my actual size (US women’s 10 1/2) and they fit perfectly. There is a tiny bit of room in the toebox, which is actually great because my feet do not feel restricted. The sole grip is so good for box jumps, and barbell lifts! Lots of ease in the movement for jumping jacks, so I think this will easily become my all-around workout shoe. I waited for a sale price, but I think I would have paid retail if that were my only option.
Finally, a shoe that gives good support while working out. I've been searching for a shoe that I won't blow through the side or toe area, like with mesh or cloth type of material. These shoes have a rubber material on the sides and toe so I'm curious to see how long these last (I think definitely longer than the other type of shoes). I wear a size 8-8.5 in casual shoes, and size 9-9.5 in workout/running shoes. I got the size 9 wide, I was worried they would be too wide, but not at all. I'm actually glad I got the wide. Lastly, I've noticed a HUGE difference when doing side skaters! The amount of support is amazing and my foot doesn't slide around in my shoe anymore. The only reason I didn't get these sooner was because of the price, but definitely worth it..
Very nice, but not what i needed. This shoe is designed for gym use vs zero rise trail walking.
Bought this shoe in the 8.5 wide. Absolutely perfect fit for me! My foot is wide in the midfoot as I have fallen arches. I've struggled with fit and support with crossfit shoes and found that the women's metcon wide was not at all fit for wide midfoot but solely wide toebox which caused my feet to loose circulation during workouts. I could not be happier and my feet could not be happier in these shoes! Thank you Inov-8 for making a quality, tough but comfortable shoe for those of us with this issue! Running, lifting and rope climbs all feel great with these shoes! I'll definitely be purchasing more from this company in the future!
I was looking for new shoes for my weight lifting class and my trainer recommended this shoes they are very comfortable and I feel very steady when doing my workout routines
So this shoe is awesome. I wear them every day to CrossFit. Besides the laces (which after a week started to thread at the ends), this shoe holds up really well for a lot of movement. Great for lifting, rope climbs, etc. I do wear special insoles for my feet (I have plantar fasciitis) so I can't really comment if they are good for sprints or running. But even with that said, no non-running shoe is really great for running. I highly recommend this shoe - would probably buy them again but definitely would replace the laces.
Very comfortable. Worth the price
Wore out a pair of Nano 8's and wanted to try something new. After trying a few options, I settled on the Inov8 and love them. They are very stable, feel great on the foot and are nice and flexible. I use them for traditional lifting (squats/deadlift/ect) as well as HIIT style workouts with kettlebells, box jumps, band work, sled push...you know the drill. Highly recommend!
