Hi everybody. My pair of Nano 2.0 just arrived yesterday and I have to say I can totally confirm what Jake says. So thank you very much Jake for your informative and complete reviews. Love them. Usually use Nike Metcon 7 in size 10 (EUR 44) and Metcon 8 FlyEase in 10.5 (EUR 44,5). 10.5 is my usual Nike size. For higher weights when squating I use the tighter/smaller Metcon 7. This Reebok model feels great right out of the gate. Very light, flexible and comfy. Of course much easier that the stiff heel Metcons. Did a plyo based workout yesterday and loved the Nano 2.0. Have not yet lifted heavy in them. Will see soon how they feel. Overall a great shoe, as what I can see, it seems to go out of stock now...

I'd like to ask you what's the better for heavy lifting and the complementaries (i'm a streetlifter) between Reebok Nano 2.0 (2023) and Adidas Powerlift 5? I was thinking to buy one of these but I'm not sure if could be better use a 4 mm heel to toe drop or a 15 mm, as I don't have any dorsiflexion or ankle's mobility issue
