Nike Metcon 9 AMP

Awesome solid and strong shoe. I bought these mostly for squats and deadlifts. Not suited for running or anything similar due to the hard sole and its shape. I bought a size 9 which is usually my Nike go-to size, but ended up exchanging them. These run big! I ended up going a whole size down. If it were a shoe that I would use for running or whatever, I would have gone down only a half size. What I liked about going down a full size it that it (for me) provided a tight/snug fit which allows for more control. I am speaking from a climbing background though, where small shoes = control. I included a side by side of the Metcons against two other Nike shoes (soccer size 9.5 and ball size 9). Anyways. Awesome shoes!

VERY SNUG! I love the support of these shoes but they are even more narrow than the usual Nike shoe, which is already exceptionally narrow. Specifically these shoes are narrow in the heel as well as the toe box. Perhaps one day this massive shoe company will offer wide options for all of their shoes lol!

I really like the design of this shoe - a 5/5. They take a few weeks to break in. Probably a 2/5 on comfort when I first got them, but now the comfort is probably like a 3/5. Also, I know they're gym workout shoes, but be careful walking on anything wet. They are kinda slippery.
