Reebok Men's CROSSFIT Nano 2.0 Cross Trainer

I’m 6’ 4”, 220 pounds, with a size 14+/wide foot and, because of my foot size, usually have to order online which carries its own perils as you have to wait until they're delivered before you can try them on and if they don't fit there's the laborious (well Amazon does make it less painful) of sending them back and looking for something else. I currently have three old pairs of Reebok running shoes but I don't run anymore as I'm an old Army vet with the bad knees and back to prove it! So, I was looking for a cross-trainer as I'm no longer on the open road but in the gym and figured a training shoe would better fit my new exercise routine, which still consists of some high octane cardio exercises. I initially looked at the Puma cross-trainer but was forewarned by the reviews that the shoe runs narrow and I deal with enough pain without having to add my feet to the equation. So, I looked at the Reebok reviews and read how those with wide feet found this training shoe to be comfortable. So, I ordered one pair and when they were delivered took them on a test drive the next day at the gym. They felt great! Not too loose or too tight but just right, with give and added stability in all the right places! I felt so much better after my workout - as my feet where suffering a little with my old Reebok running shoes - I quickly ordered two more pair as I found rotating your shoes helps to keep them and you in better shape. If you have an average to wide foot, I highly suggest these training shoes.

So I was looking for a Crossfit-specific shoe as my runners were just not cutting it anymore - especially for the rope climbs. My coaches said they liked the 2.0 and the price was right (at least better than 3.0 and 4.0) so I took the plunge.Fit - heel is fine, but the toe box is wide for me I have some fabric bunching when I snug them up around the toe portion.Support - I wish they had a little more arch support, but at least there is something.Function - The first day I wore these, we did about 2km of sprints running in an asphalt parking lot. I really noticed the extra room in the toe box as the ball of my foot was sliding around. I also noticed really tight/sore shins the next day, as they do NOT have the forefoot cushioning in the runners I had been wearing. They also do NOT have quite the heel lift, nor solid feel of an olympic lifting shoe - so if you are doing anything other than warming up squats, you will still need lifting shoes.Overall - it's one of those shoes that's designed to do everything, and it does - but it also ends up being a compromise. For a Crossfit shoe, they are great for inside gymnastic stuff, and short stuff on the rubber floor. But not good for lifting or longer runs (over 800m) outside on pavement.

I have a flat foot with a very wide forefoot, so shoe shopping is always exciting. I'm usually at least a EE, if not EEEE. After trying the Nano 6, 7, and 8, I was all set to buy a set of Nano 6.0s, the widest forefoot of the bunch, as my first CrossFit shoe until someone suggested I try the older (and 33% less expensive) 2.0. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the 2.0 also had a plenty-generous forefoot that fit my pancakes just fine.However, I found I had to go up to a size 9.5, half a shoe size larger than what I wore in the Nano 6.0 to get the length right. At size 9.0, my toes were hitting the front of the shoe when I ran. At a size 9.5 length, the length is great, but out of the box the forefoot is now just a little too wide. Not a huge deal tho: it just took trial and error with a few different lacing styles to get the shoes to fit just right.I will wear 2.0s until they stop making them and then switch to 6.0s.

I've been wearing this particular model since their debut. Awesome all around athletic shoe. Heavy lifting, WODs, running, casual etc. You name it'll handle it just fine. I've experienced two drawbacks which is why gave it four stars. First, the size can sometimes be a bit off. I've had some where toe box was a bit snug and others where it was perfect out of the box. If they are a bit snug it will take some time to break them in depending on what you do. From my experience heavy lifting seems to break them in the quickest. I would not recommend running more than two miles before breaking them in. The other disadvantage is that the quality seems to vary. Some will begin to come apart rather quickly and others will last forever. I've had two pairs of the solid black. One pair started coming apart after 4 months. The other pair (which have since been retired) is fully intact battling the elements in the bed of my Silverado and only use them for fishing. I currently work out with the black and white, they ran snug. The white and grey I use as casual wear and were perfect fit out the box.

I have wide feet, so buying shoes before physically trying them on has always been a problem for me. It also doesn't help that, depending on the type of shoe, the sizes that fit vary anywhere from 9 to 11. Luckily, I've gone through enough experiences to know that an 11D(M) was most likely the size that was going to fit me.Upon receiving the package I tried on the shoes. They were a bit narrow at the ball of my foot (as expected) and there was a little extra space at the toe box/cap, but for the most part it felt like a good fit. As I examined the shoe more closely, however, I discovered that the tag (on the tongue of the shoes) said 10.5 and not 11, even though I had ordered 11 and the box they came in was labeled 11.Figuring that an 11 might actually be too large at this point I decided to keep the 10.5 rather than return them. I took my chances in making the shoes "non-returnable/refundable" by actually using them and luckily during my workout I didn't notice or feel my feet sliding forward or my heels sliding up and down the back of the shoe.

great shoes better than the 4.0
