"I really enjoy the overall fit of the cxt3. The toe box seems perfectly widened. However, the laces are a bit slick and have easily come loose, make sure to double knot. The heel/backing of the 3 seems a bit more rigid. I prefer the "poofy" feel of the cxt2 backing. Overall, the shoes fit great and perform even better."
"I am loving my trainer shoes! They are super comfortable and supportive for my strength training days and perfect when doing Bulgarian splits or using the peas let. Love them and they are not only functional, they are also stylish! I would love to see pink ones , but the pink only as the orange is to the tangerines, on certain parts of the shoes! 😍"
"After six months of trying out different shoes, I ordered these. I tried them at home. . . they felt ok. Then I took them to the gym. Wow, the stability I got from them when lifting. . . it was just what I was looking for. They have a wide toe area, perfect for me, as I have a bunion (Even though I ordered 1/2 size up). The only thing that bothered me was the back of the shoe, it was a bit stiff, but after 3 times, that was gone. They are definitely not suitable for running, but for that I have a different shoe. I love that I feel so stable, as if you hooked my feet to the floor. . ."
"These are an awesome shoe for both lifting and crossfit - really appreciating the extra support around the edges of my foot. I wish the toe box was a little wider but the are still very comfortable. Cute too."
"It is my first TYR shoe and usually I use Asics Kayano in running and strength training and I feel that TYR CXT-3 is to some degree is not flexible as Asics shoes. Overall I like TYR and its stability"
"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!"
"Big change from CXT-2 - much wider, unfortunately. The toe box room is better, but too wide at the heel. Size is a bit bigger than old shoes, also. Back to trying a heel lift and lacing options to improve fit. Only worn a few times so hard to know durability."
"Truly one of the most comfortable shoes I’ve tried for CF. There was no breaking them in and they offer a wide toe box that allow my feet to splay. Ordered a second pair after having for just 2 weeks. Love these!"
"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."
"Quality shoe. The back side of the shoe where it covers your Achilles tendon should be a little higher. It rubs pretty bad until you break the shoe in. I’ve worn them twice and it’s made mine bleed twice."
