With road runs, I didn’t slip, trip or fall at any point, even when the ground was sandy or wet. For shorter trail runs, I had ample protection both underfoot and in the toe cap. With some of my training, I used these to run uphill gravel trails and on pavement. This is where the shoes really worked when outside: the sole is studded for grip and durability. The design also adds bright colors and small reflective details, just in case your workout takes you after sunset. Even in high temperatures (80’s and sunny), my feet didn’t feel swamped or too hot thanks to the breathability.
Instead, it provided solid protection at specific points that need reinforcement, such as the toes from stubbing on rocks or stairs and the sides during lateral agility training.
The upper is made of a nylon tip that is thicker to the touch but doesn’t feel heavy when on. No hot spots and no pain in the legs they were good to go from the first practice. I didn’t feel any discomfort when I ran, jumped rope, or did plyometrics on the sidewalk. What stood out about the shoe was that even with some of the most aggressive terrain or exercise (like running downhill on a trail), these shoes held up to both durability and stability. , and lots of brisk walks outside on sandy, gritty trails. To test these out, I did a variety of workouts in them – some bootcamp-style HIIT classes on pavement and grass, some shorter runs (about 3 miles) on rocky, steep trails, a 3-mile route on the sidewalk. Rather, they’re for the training athlete who wants that shot of fresh air and getting their workouts in outside, but in a shoe that won’t break down on rougher terrain. I knew these shoes weren’t trail or road runners, but they weren’t gym shoes either. Basically, it’s a trainer – but with some upgrades geared towards outdoor use. Price: 140 dollars Reebok Nano X2 Adventure Testing Testing the Reebok Nano X2s in the gym.Ĭoming from Reebok’s Nano franchise and updated to the second iteration of the adventure variety, X2s are for people who are “taking their training beyond the four walls of a gym” with upgrades specially built to withstand a variety of terrains and outdoor training demands. Materials: Rubber outsole, Floatride foam midsole, Nylon knit upper, TPU heel However, after testing them out and getting a feel for their versatility, it’s clear that the fun colored shoes have all the makings of a good outdoor shoe (we’ll get into more of what that means below) with a heel grippy outer, breathable upper and reflective details.īriefly: If you want to ditch all the different shoes (or at least some) and have one that can cover outdoor training, light to moderate hikes and short trail runs, the Nano X2 Adventure has you covered. Reebok says it’s essentially a training shoe for those who sweat it out. So when Nano X2 Adventure from Reebok was introduced to me, I was a little skeptical about what and why the shoes. There are my road runners, mine trail runners, hiking boots, low climbers, fitness trainers - really any specific shoe for any specific activity. I have a lot of shoes and unfortunately, also limited space. The Nano X2 Adventure by Reebok takes you from the gym to the trails to the street – all in one shoe.
