Whatever your "why" is for working out, the Metcon 9 makes it all worth it.
We improved on the 8 with a larger Hyper Lift plate and added rubber rope wrap
Sworn by some of the greatest athletes in the world, intended for lifters, cross trainers, go-getters and it’s still the gold standard that delivers day after day
We made the Hyper Lift plate in the heel even bigger for stability when getting after tough workouts like split squats, deadlifts and other lower-body exercises
The plate helps force weight down and out while adding rigidity in the heel
That firmness helps you feel grounded and supported, specifically under heavier loads
The lace lock system attaches to the shoe tongue, so you don't have to worry about latching it to any fabric
It helps keep your laces in place, so once you tie up, you can focus solely on your workout
We extended the rubber wrap on the side for durability and support, so that you can scale any kind of rope climb with the same repeated velocity without worrying about wear and tear
It stretches from the midsole to the upper and adds some support in the upper for multidirectional movements
Lightweight, breathable mesh helps keep your foot cool yet sports the kind of durability that can withstand scrapes, slashes and quick-drag movements
Dual-density midsole—firm foam on the outside, soft foam on the inside—provides responsive cushioning for lasting comfort for continuous cardio and movements
Full rubber outsole provides durable traction for dynamic movements like cleans and walking lunges
Breathable textile has a haptic print, which creates a 3-D effect that adds durability and texture, helping make it easier to keep your shoes clean
Also, it sports flexible, durable support in the toe area, so that when your toes splay when lifting heavy weights, it won't feel restrictive
