I got the new Inov-8 Bare-XF 210 today, a shoe designed for CrossFit athletes. They are unlike anything I’ve ever had on my feet. I can’t wait to try them out in a workout, but I need a rest day tomorrow.

Reblogged this on CrossFit – Nick Momrik and commented:
Just putting these on for a few minutes and walking around the house these felt like they are going to be great for WODs.
How are these working out Nick? They look similarish, but more sporty than the Vivo Barefoot shoes I wear most of the time: http://www.vivobarefoot.com/us/mens/neo-42.html
I wore them today in a lifting focused workout (deadlifts, cleans, front squats, and jerks) and they were awesome! I’ve been wearing the Inov-8 F-Lite 230 which I like, but they are two completely different shoes. These new shoes are considerably lighter and I can feel my entire foot like I’ve never felt in a shoe before. The sole doesn’t have any grips sticking out and is extremely flat from front to back, which is great for lifts. We didn’t have any running today, so I’m not sure how they feel on short runs. So far so good though.
