The toebox is still narrow. It pushes my big toe more inward and cause pain in the metatarsal. I don't have a bunion like most Nike wearers have so it hurts a bit. Wishes Nike straightens out the toebox a bit rather than curving it inward.

Just a heads up: you can choose your midsole type and height of the hyperlift insert when you make Nike ID (Nike By You). I chose a soft cushy midsole mainly because I use a custom orthotic in my metcons when training. It’s pretty comfy for when I’m coaching, so that nice.

Funny.... almost all the aspects of the new 6 that you said everyone complains about are the things I like (ie the Zig-Zag). Mind you, I've always like the Metcons. The shoes I despise are the Nanos.... just... blech. I switched to NoBull many years ago as the Metcon soles only lasted a year or so. So, I'm reluctant to spend the money as I still have and wear, almost daily, that old pair of NoBulls. In any case, as always, great reviews. Thanks.

I will use a separate pair of trainers for my heavy lifts including deadlifts and squats so don’t need to factor the Metcons 6s for these. Thanks

I broke my foot wearing the 5s doing dumbell steps over the box. The shoe have just to much flexibility and allow your foot to move around to the point its inestable and dangerous. Since then, I wear nano x and I feel more safe. I don't blame the shoe for my injury since I will probably was just exhausted and lose attention over how I execute the movement, but the metcons definitely play a part in it.
