Price is up to $150... I'm going to stick to the Reign 6 at $130. Plus Reign 6 fits my foot well with great grip. The last TYR 1 was to narrow for me. I'm curious on the additional 4mm or even in extra wide but i'm sure the extra wide in higher sizes will sell fast.

You’re lucky being in the US… in France it’s up to 165€ and even 180€, means 180 to 195 USD !!! 🤦🏻‍♂️👎 thanks VAT, thanks EU, definitely too much, I’ll stick to my Metcons, Dropsets and Nanos too

Depends on your asks. For CF and lifting, these are superior. In terms of running performance, they won't be as good

Whats your opinion on just a general show for bodybuilding training? I use Rom 2s for weightlifting and don't do crossfit. The new games colorway looks sick but seems like maybe RADs are better?

Both can be great. I'd go with these if you want more toe box room, though. RAD can run narrow

Is there any particular training shoe you’d recommend for upper body workouts or would you say any would work?

@thatfitfriend 5 ай бұрын

Most can work! Just depends on the context. For example, it can matter more for things like heavy barbell OHP (wouldn't want a running shoe for that), but most training shoes and denser models should work just fine!

@shashplays4413 5 ай бұрын

Thanks for the reply! For mainly dumbbell, machine and cable work for the upper body would you say it’s worth using actual training shoes like adidas dropset 2s, or are normal shoes that aren’t made for lifting like air max 270s okay?

When you do different ratings for "CrossFit" and "Cross Training"...I'm not sure what the difference is...would you please elaborate? Thank you!

@thatfitfriend 3 ай бұрын

For sure. For CrossFit, think CF classes or programming that blends exercises used in CrossFit WODs that are more common in this context. For cross-training, this athletic-focused. A day such as, going to the gym, doing trap bar deadlifts, walking lunges, box jumps, then maybe conditioning like jump rope or sleds. The diff contexts can vary for versatility and durability asks out of shoes

@@thatfitfriend yeah I love the Metcon 9s for lifting but anything else they just feel too heavy and clunky, but surprisingly have opened up in the toe box after wearing them in and feel pretty good now. Gonna give the CXT-2 Wide a go and see how they feel. Just wanted to make sure they were atleast Metcon 9 width before since that needs to be the minimum for my toe box area.

the bottom of these shoes is too slippery for any turf work. They are okay for platform work but not as sticky. I like the design for the upper, but the lower needs to go back to CXT-1 which was flawless.
