Description
Whether you're up at the crack of dawn training and climbing rope, or giving it your all on a circuit training run after putting the kids to bed, the work you do in the shadows will always come to light. With highly visible reflective details throughout, this shoe can help you be seen when darkness dominates in winter. This must-have training shoe features an upper designed for optimal breathability without losing any of the durability and comfort that characterizes our models. Nike React foam provides comfortable, lightweight, dynamic cushioning when you engage in cardio workouts and sprints. It provides a fluid and responsive stride. Several bright details keep you visible on dark winter days, like a beacon in the night. The haptic fabric, lacing, collar material and screen-printed details are also bright and shiny. During the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere, the sun seems to rise and set at 30 degrees in the east and west. Similarly, in the research for the Metcon 8, we determined that the optimal angle for bending was between 10 and 30 degrees. The gradient, also angled at 30 degrees, changes from light to dark on the midsole, and again from dark to light on the rear to mimic the sunrise and sunset during the solstice. Grippy rubber wraps the arch for intense rope climbs. The rubber outsole gives you optimal grip and stability when you go from the gym floor to the asphalt.
