"Durability is on point! My forst WOD was “Donny” I also worked “The Seven” WOD as well, very breathable, light weight, and solid 10/10! Looking forward to strength training with these beauties in the AM! The colorway is beautiful! MOST DEF getting another pair! Also, looking forward to trying the lifters!"
"I ordered a men's size 8. 5, but the shoes felt noticeably larger than expected. Upon closer inspection, I discovered that the original factory label indicated size 9. 5, and it had been covered with a size 8. 5 label."
"I’m new to wearing this brand of shoes! I actaully love them better than NoBulls. They are a lot more comfortable to train in and have a deceivingly wide toe box; which I really like. I’d say the toe box is a positive compare to the Nano 2’s wide toe box. But, without the clown shoe look. I’ve received many compliments. The color… my favorite. Will be buying my teenage a pair soon!!"
"I've been using the TYR CXT-3 for my workouts, and I'm extremely impressed. The shoe feels incredibly stable during strength training, especially for squats, deadlifts, and other heavy lifts. The wide toe box provides plenty of room without sacrificing support, and the overall fit is comfortable right out of the box with little to no break-in period."
"My experience with these shoes has been great overall. My main issue is the insole in one shoe is loose. When I’m doing any activity it pushes back with the insole going up my heel. I’ve only had them for 3 months. But when it comes to short runs and lifting they are a great all around shoe. I get I can buy a new insole or glue it. But I don’t think this should be necessary within three months of use for $160."
"Great fit, true to size. Amazing floor grip for strong lifts and they’re also very light weight for CrossFit moves. Fantastic shoe, highly recommend"
"Love these shoes! They’re extremely comfortable, sturdy, and well-made. I’ve been very impressed with the quality and support. 10/10 — I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a great pair of shoes."
"This is my first experience with TYR brand and I must say I am highly disappointed with it. I have been using the shoes ONLY in gym where I go twice a week for hr and a half. I lift weights followed by walking on treadmill for 30 mins. Having used these shoes for 4 weeks I notices a top rubberised seal is coming off the shoe. It is located exactly where the shoes get bent when you are walking. I did not expect this to happened for this price."
"I have been slowly wearing this shoe for longer amounts of time over the last week. I bought a half size above my normal size which was perfect. The front mesh over the toe box got a stain on it already, which had to be cleaned. They seem to be sturdy. This blue is almost a periwinkle."
"very similar to my CXT-1's which are my favorite training shoe in the whole wide world!! I am super happy with the fit and how vibrant the pink looks in real life vs. IG! Overall happy with my purchase!"
