Reebok Speed TR Performance (Is It Good for CrossFit ®-Style Workouts?) Since the CORDURA ® is so light on the sides and the toe of the shoe, I think you’ll be pleasantly happy with this additional material. I liked this touch because it helps provide a little more to the shoe in the areas it needs it most (tongue for maintaining tightness/comfort & heel for lateral support). The tongue and material around the heel are both a little thicker with additional cushion. Instead of the normal plastic heel cup that the Nano offers, the Speed TR has an enclosed reinforcement, and you can it where the leather covers the heel. The heel has a firmer piece of material, which feels to be a solid layer of TPU, and in my opinion, that’s a nice touch to add stability for lifts. For additional context about EVA, some lifting shoes on the market use high density EVA as their primary material for their elevated heels. On the mid and outsole, there’s a soft EVA, and that provides a bit of responsiveness, but also a good base to lift on. In addition, there’s an extra strip of leather around the eyelets, which is a nice sign for durability. There are six eyelets running up the shoe and each eyelet has a little piece of leather extending out from the mid-shoe, so it helps enclose the tongue a little better. It made the Speed TR very light and one of the more breathable cross training options I’ve tried. Personally, I liked the CORDURA ® and thought it was a nice change up from the Nano 8’s FlexWeave and the normal mesh that other cross trainers offer. This material is promoted to stretch decently well, resist abrasion, and provide breathability. For starters, the upper material is CORDURA ®, which is a durable lightweight material Reebok uses for multiple articles of their workout focused lines of products. The Reebok Speed TR differentiates itself from the Nano in more than a couple areas of construction. And is it a good shoe for CrossFit®-style workouts? The Reebok Nano is often my go-to Reebok cross training shoe, so I was curious how the Speed TR compared in the gym. Speed training could be defined in multiple ways, and we chose to assess how this shoe worked with sprints, change of direction, and jumping focused movements. At the heart of its construction the Speed TR offers plenty of attributes to assist athletes through cross training style workouts, but more towards the roots of the shoe its claim to the market is a background for speed style training. In comes the Reebok Speed TR, a versatile model that’s quietly flown in on the coattails of the Reebok CrossFit® Nano. And while the Nano has definitely staked its claim as one of the most widely used cross training shoes on the market, it’s certainly not the only cross training model Reebok creates. When it comes to cross training shoes and Reebok, many athletes associate WODs, metabolic conditioning workouts, and versatile workouts with the Reebok Nano.
