The Metcon 5 'Black Gold' was launched in July 2019, boasting a visually appealing metallic touch on the collar and heel. Crafted by Nike, this cross-training shoe is specifically engineered to provide exceptional resilience and comfort for athletes engaging in diverse training routines. Building upon the features of its predecessor, the Metcon 4, this upgraded model delivers several enhancements for a superior training experience. Notably, it offers a more cushioned tongue, directional grooves on the medial rope-wrap panel, chain-link haptic texture on the forefoot, and a Hyperlift insert that enhances balance and stability during intense weightlifting sessions.
