Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike Metcon 8 trainers, keep them clean by wiping the upper with a soft, damp cloth after workouts to remove dust and sweat. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the specialized materials. Ensure you select the correct UK adult sizing for a secure fit. If you are using custom orthotics, the internal space is designed to accommodate standard inserts, though it is recommended to test the fit during a light workout before engaging in heavy lifting to ensure your foot remains stable.
