    NIKE METCON THREAD - 7s out now

    I think he went way too hard in PTTM1. At a certain point he could have cruised a bit more so he wouldn't have had shoulder burnout. But also, I think they no-repped once or twice when it looked pretty good. They also magically didn't have any speed barbell work which is basically his huge...

    Fraser in first and rocking the #23 (subtle tip to Jordan?) games.crossfit.com/leaderboard Coverage seems to really downplay Fraser really being the favorite

    tangentially relevant, but I guess Reebok did a full buyout of MMA sponsorship and are forcing their gear on the fighters/crews since it's worked with crossfit ... public reaction/perception not going so well ... reddit.com/r/MMA/comments/3e4vts/stitch_duran_fired_by_ufc_for_antireebok_comments/

    Just read the NDC description of the Games QS. Absolutely dope they're paying homage to the Jordan1 colorway that was banned also back int he day (although the varsity red is kinda off in the pics). Love the homage to the Jordan1 design of having the toe/swoosh/heel in red and the white sole...

    A+ Marketing TagLine. I'm guessing these are the Games QS? Also, lowkey, that women's black colorway is dope.

    Hahaha, thanks man for basically the best customer service ever! I wish Nike was this useful when getting measurements. Super helpful also, my favorite pair of shorts are old Nike Mesh shorts from circa-2007 that I haven't given up yet. They are 19.5" outseam and 7" inseam, so these Vapors...

    Can someone with the Nike Vapor shorts measure them from the top of the waist to the bottom of the shorts along the outside seam (and let us know what size you are measuring)? I find the inseam is now an unreliable measurement since the waist to crotch measurement is now variable across...

    My girlfriend is co-signing your wife. She doesn't understand why the Metcon2 aren't getting the usual women's colorways of Aqua (Turquoise) Fuschia (Purple) Mango (Orange) Lava (Pink) The bottom pair look like a Mango pair but her comments are "the black accent makes them straight trash...

    I pray that's not any type of Air tech back there. I don't care if it's zoom, caged zoom, etc. These also seem like 1.5's since the shoe is basically the same except for the front upper tweak and the heel accent. Also, (i feel like an idiot) I just realized the side profile design language...

    Yup, ultimately Reebok is just a purchased subsidiary of Adidas and Adidas ownership right now is focusing on metropolitan markets and higher fashion streetwear. In the last earnings call, they basically highlighted Adidas Originals, and the partnerships with Kanye / Pharrell as elevating the...

    Thanks for the heads up, I order a pair on Thursday and got them already. $7.50 for USPS priority shipping is basically a steal. Now I can just run through my 2 pairs of Volts til the Metcon 2's drop. They actually double boxed my order. Not sure if this is the norm or exception since the girl...

    It's mainly because Nike has to maintain good relationships with retail partners here in the United States, so stock of shoes gets distributed widely (albeit inefficiently) everywhere from mom and pop shoe shops all the way up to the nation wide retailers like the Footlocker group / Finishline /...

    WOT. i was prepared to just burn through my OG Volts until the 2's ... Also, random question, someone posted the insta-shot below in the middle of this thread, is this Wolf Grey model just a testing shoe? I haven't seen these in any of the release sheets ....

    From a performance aspect I agree (although the other options you listed are kinda crazy, lol.) Hopefully my Volts can last til the next Metcon2 Realistically the hype for these are that they're Nike and they're a stylistic improvement over the Nano's. Any performance effect is placebo or very...
