Nike and CrossFit Athlete Mat Fraser Debut the Metcon 6

0

The newest installment in Nike’s Metcon line, the Metcon 6, is designed to keep your foot cool when you’re going full steam. It stands up to the push and pull of heavily weighted and high-intensity workouts, delivering stability and durability.

Mat Fraser, four-time CrossFit Games champion, vouches for the versatile training shoe, and continues the tradition of the Metcon with his own colorway of this latest model. The Metcon 6 “Mat Fraser” explores the competitive advantage of the Fittest Man on Earth, dressed in a blacked-out upper that represents the “dark space” Fraser goes to in order to block out all distractions. The red base and bold red stripe across the lateral side represents his focus, while blue elements beneath the mesh represent the ice in his veins which allow the athlete to perform calmly under pressure.

Other colorways of the Metcon 6 includes a camouflage upper mesh blended with a vibrant green Nike Swoosh along with black overlays, all sitting atop a gum bottom. There’s also a women’s-exclusive colorway that features cheetah-like uppers with complimenting pink accents and eyelets.

A FlyEase version of the Metcon 6 will also be available, modified so that it is easier for world class athletes to put on and take off the shoe. It features a collapsible heel counter so it can be slipped on and off without the need to retie the laces. The Fittest One-Armed Man on Earth, Logan Aldridge stated “When I’m competing against other people, I’m holding myself to the same standards as every able-bodied athlete does… that’s the gift of our sport. The community is rooted in support and respect, and that extends to all abilities, because we all push each other to be better. If I had to think of a way to describe universal design, that would be it.”
