Nike Metcon 2 Amp Volt Blue Glow 01

Nike entered the world of cross training with a bang before it was blacklisted and kept out of official CrossFit gyms and competitions due to an exclusive contract with Reebok. Nike even poked fun at the ridiculousness of the situation with a “Don’t Ban Our Shoe, Beat Our Shoe” slogan perfectly capped off with a colorway to reference the most popular banned shoe of all time – the Air Jordan 1. None of this has stopped the Swoosh from perfecting their modern training silhouette – in fact, it’s only added fuel to the fire. The sequel, known as the Nike MetCon 2 AMP features a stable platform, dual density foam to improve on the first Metcon’s outsole unit while a bolstered fuse upper adds lightweight support for all types of training. The colorways have only gotten better too, as this Volt and Blue Glow colorway is as bold as they come. The look features alternating mismatched panels between the two feet while a marbled midsole shank adds a crazy splash of color. This Nike Metcon 2 will be available in-store and online on Monday, July 18th for $140 USD.
