Nike Metcon 1

Nike has an astute understanding of the rigors of training and kept this in mind while developing the Metcon 1. The sneaker was designed with every athlete in mind and furthermore, anyone focused on fitness in the first quarter.

By definition, the cross trainer is a shoe made for general fitness and is meant to transition from bench-pressing to jogging without missing a beat. The Nike Metcon 1 achieves this by combining flexibility and stability with all of the support and comfort you'd need during a daily workout. To top it all off, it's decent looking shoe with solid geometric colorblocking as well -- that neon tops it off.

The Nike Metcon 1 drops at Nike.com on Jan. 31 and is priced at $120, which is a great way to spend the extra money you saved by copping the new year's special at the gym you just joined.
