<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe Nano X2 is designed for fitness training across just about any sport on Earth. This includes our beloved soccer and rugby. Look for United States women\u2019s national soccer team star Julie Ertz in the gym and you\u2019ll find her rocking a pair of the X2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Read on for our World Exclusive<\/strong> review of the Reebok X2!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are Reebok\u2019s technical specifications of the X2. We\u2019ll delve into the key ones as we get into our experience with the shoe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Design<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The design team at Reebok have created a spectacular shoe specimen with the Nano X2! The shoe is a clever, functional unit that has a look that combines the vibe of an everyday lifestyle shoe with the swagger of kicks worn by serious athletes from the gym\u2019s functional training turf to the weight room. There is also a touch of retro in the X2 thanks to the shoe\u2019s iconic Reebok logo on the side and a silhouette reminiscent of 1990s trainers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reebok has launched the Nano X2 in a striking gray, black and white colorway which can be worn with any color of training and gym wear. Gray is dominant at the front of the shoe and transitions well to mainly black towards the back via the lacing area and Reebok logo. A cool contoured effect in the upper runs until the upper part of the logo is met. The black vertical stripe with the text \u201cReebok Nano X2\u201d at the back of the shoe is a nice statement of fitness intent at the back of the shoe. Those aware of the fitness lifestyle will know that you\u2019re a dedicated athlete when they see it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Reebok\u2019s X2 upper\u2019s knit fabric is lightweight and comfortable across a range of temperatures ranging from below zero to above eighty-degree Fahrenheit. It is quite sturdy and ready for whatever fitness activity you throw at it. We\u2019re quite appreciative of it since we lived through the less breathable Nano Kevlar uppers of the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Nano X2 has a remarkably wide tongue and lacing area. The tongue is very padded and provides a great feel on the top of the feet. The accompanying flattened laces are easy to adjust and stay tied. The combination is in all black on the initial drop colorway of the X2 and provides fantastic contrast with the rest of the shoe. It is in the same color as the rest of the upper in the X2\u2019s other colorways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A final appealing design touch on the Reebok Nano X2 is the mix of black and white throughout its sole. The black plastic heel clip that runs from the back of the X2 to the midsole is very much emphasized by placing it on a sole that\u2019s bordered in white. Reebok, Nano X2 and speckles are subtly added into the black are for a brilliant fitness aesthetic. Other color mixes are used on the soles of the other color schemes of the X2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fit<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Reebok recommends going half a size down from your regular training shoe size for the Nano X2. However, both of our testers thought that the shoe boasted a true to size fit even when wearing thin, low cut athletic socks. We also didn\u2019t experience any stretching of the X2\u2019s upper since it is made of a modern knit fabric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The wide tongue and lacing system that we mentioned makes getting your feet into the Nano X2 effortless. It\u2019s simply a matter of loosening the very top section of the laces, raising up the tongue slightly and sliding your feet into them. Pull tabs may make things easier the first time putting the shoe on but really not needed. We did not make any adjustment to how the X2 was laced out of the box. The laces can be easily made tauter for a bespoke fit, however.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ve been training in the Reebok Nano X2 for over two weeks now. The shoe fits so well that it feels like an extension of our feet. We attribute this to the sock like feel of the upper and the fabric that is made out of. We\u2019ve encountered no hotspots, rubbing, blistering, sliding or unwanted spaces when training on the gym floor, running or working out outside in the X2!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ride<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Reebok Nano X2 delivers an amazing, unreal ride for a cross training shoe! This is in line with Reebok\u2019s focus on comfort in recent generations of the Nano. The Floatride Energy foam that is now used in the company\u2019s high-end running shoes is also a big contributor to the X2\u2019s ride since it is used for its sole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The sole thickness of the Nano X2 is about one inch with a 7mm heel to toe drop. These dimensions aren\u2019t dissimilar from your typical running shoe. Hence it comes to no surprise that the X2 offers a soft and well-cushioned ride when used for running on treadmills, rubberized track, concrete and asphalt. We were fine with distances up to three miles at a slow to medium pace. We recommend using runners like the latest Reebok Floatride for distances beyond 5K or for faster running because more cushioning and less weight than the X2 has are best suited for such runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Reebok Nano X2\u2019s feel on the foot when training in the gym is second to run. It provides fantastic stability for anything that you do when wearing it. The lock-in is among the best we\u2019ve experienced thanks to its sock like fit. The X2 is a no slip affair from the heel counter to toe box with an extremely well-padded tongue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
