The Nike Metcon 3 'Black X Gold' sneaker has been redesigned with a stylish color scheme to represent the triumph over obstacles in the pursuit of success. It features a durable yet lightweight upper construction, complete with Flywire cables and synthetic overlays for added strength. To assist with rope climbs, the shoe includes a cushioned sole with rubber outsole treading that extends up the sidewall. In July 2017, the brand also introduced a women's exclusive edition of this model, available in a different colorway.
