"The Nike Free Metcon 6 is the cross-training shoe that consistently performs in the gym. It's super lightweight with a stretchy, elasticized upper that locks your foot in. The sole feels supportive, though it's distinctly less cushy than a running shoe. There's enough feedback to lift in these as well. The higher support around the mid-foot to heel is also a real standout here. If you're doing any lateral movement (jumping, in particular), you won't feel like your foot is unstable or sliding around."
"For a minimal, effective cross-training shoe, Nobull does it best. The shoe is lightweight (8.3 oz) and designed to protect your feet without changing how they move. This means it has a wide toe box (where you can still grip the ground with your feet, the way you might if actually lifting barefoot) and it doesn't hike your heels up into an awkward position. All Nobull shoes are built specifically for cross-training, and the brand offers several styles depending on your preferences."
Nike Free Metcon 6 is a lightweight cross-training shoe with an elasticized, stretchy upper that locks the foot in and provides high mid-foot and heel support for lateral movement. The sole offers enough feedback for lifting but is less cushioned than running shoes. The shoe retails around $120. The Nobull Drive Ripstop is minimal and protective at 8.3 oz, featuring a wide toe box to allow natural foot movement and ground grip, a slightly higher platform for stability, and a low 4mm heel drop that supports a neutral stance while running or lifting.
