Pros & Cons
Bottom Line
Reebok has released the Reebok CrossFit Speed TR. This shoe is made for one thing and one thing only, producing as much speed as humanly possible.
One thing about this shoe that has been taken from the new Nike Metcon 1 I believe is having a plastic heel clip to help reduce friction on Handstand Pushups.

- Monomesh and hotmelt overlay upper for breathable, WOD-tackling durability Low-cut design for freedom of motion and quicker transitions
- Ultra soft compression molded midsole for mitigating impact shock
- Forefoot cradle with flat laces for high-end lateral and medial support
- Flared outsole and metasplit flex grooves for a super-stable lifting base
- KippingKlip TPU on the back heel allows for a smooth transition up and down the wall for those often programmed HSPUs.
- RopePro shank for no-slide, tough protection
- Anti-friction collar and tongue lining to reduce moisture and heat build up
