In recent years, the word Cross fit has been heard, although many are still not very clear about what it is. Cross fit is a discipline of high intensity training with very varied exercises. It is based on weight lifting with the maximum possible for each person and that in training it does not differentiate between sizes and ages, only between sexes. An example is that women should lift 15 kilos on the barbell and men 20 kilos, regardless of the size of each person. It consists of doing the maximum possible repetitions in the stipulated time and with the greatest weight that can be taken.
As a result of this discipline that is having so much success and that so many gyms have opened for those interested to practice it, sports brands put on their boots and never better said, to be up to the task. At this point, Reebok rose from the ashes and overtook other competing brands. How did he do it? Creating a new line of sports shoes: the Reebok Nano, specially designed for this type of training. In fact, its original name is Reebok Cross fit Nano.
Reebok became the official supplier of Cross fit-licensed footwear and sportswear in 2011, and it was then that it launched the first footwear for this type of competition based on high-intensity exercises. Since that first sport, Reebok has been improving them and adding accessories to them, reaching version 6.0 of it.
A year after the first, Reebok launched the 2.0 with a wider toe box to improve the stability of the athlete’s foot. The brand takes advantage of the Cross fit games that take place every year to launch its new collection and attract buyers. In 2013 Nano 3.0 appeared with forefoot cushioning and heel stabilization with the dual-density platform. Additionally, the shoe had a protective layer on the midsole reducing the chance of fraying, and also allows for more stability during climbs. Reebok did not want to stop improving the shoes that had been a success, and that is why each year they continued to bring out a new model: in 2014 it was the turn of the Nano 4.0 with a layer of drayage protection on the front of the shoe and more wrap to give durability. Stiffer sole to provide more grip and stability than previous models. A year later, Reebok used Kevlar, which is a light, man-made fiber that has great heat resistance for their Reebok Nano 5.0.
As they are shoes subject to abuse and great efforts, the brand wants its latest versions to be more durable and resistant than the previous ones. Another marked objective is the weight of the sports shoe; they are very light to make it easier for the athlete who has to lift heavy weights.
If there is something wrong with this brand, it is that not all its models are available in all countries, that running long distances with them is not the most advisable, because they are not prepared for it and that if you want to customize them, the price will increase.
Although the latter is a con but also a pro. Who does not want to have unique sneakers that only he wears? Reebok Nano allows it, making it possible for you to customize the sneakers as you like. Of course, the price will increase according to the modifications you want to make.
