Customer Reviews Reebok Nano X1

I am very pleased with the Reebok Nano X1. The toe box always was too narrow in these shoes and now it is wider. I have always purchased Nike Metcons for this reason. The width is comfortable and not tight, the toe box provides ample rom for your toes and overall, the show is comfortable. HOWEVER, The Reebok Nano X1 Dynamic Red is ORANGE. I am extremely disappointed that Reebok would name a color and in actuality, be a different color when you unbox it. I feel deceived and although happy with the shoe, the color ORANGE is outrageous. If I wanted an orange shoe, I would have ordered one. Really disappointed and the name should not include any shades of RED. As a consumer, when you pay a lot of money for a product, that product might be what you intended to purchase and not something different, including it's color. The attached photo will show a true RED color next to the Reebok Dynamic Red (Orange) color.

Do NOT buy these shoes. I have been wearing Nanos since the Nano 2 (still everyone's favorite I talk to) and owned at least 10 pair. The Nano XI are awful for Crossfit and especially running. They severely chaffe my achilles heel and hurt the tendon after running as the heel cup digs into it. Multiple people at my gym have described this problem. Terrible design. I don't understand why Reebok has to take a great design and keep screwing with it until it's is something everyone can hate. Go back to the 2, it was a perfect design that everyone loved.

So bummed with this Nano. Similar to many other 1 star reviewers, I've been wearing Nanos almost since they came out. The heel cup dug into the back of my heel making it bleed after a 1 mile dog walk to break them in. I'd avoid this shoe, I'm not sure anyone who wouldn't have this problem. The picture is a nano (on the left) and the Nike Metcon 7 (on the right) to compare the heel cup. The Metcon has its own issues, so I'm not necessarily recommending that shoe either.
