Last month’s Reebok shoe giveaway was so darn popular that I knew I wanted to feature another one on the blog this month. Since the new Reebok Nano 3.0s seem to be on the top of everyone’s mind at the moment, I reached out to Reebok about a giveaway centered around the new Nanos and they were kind enough to agree!
I actually purchased a pair of Reebok Nano 2.0s on my own before the new Nano 3.0 came out and the company sent me a pair to try before FitBloggin’. Reebok Nanos are my go-to workout shoe most days of the week, unless my workout involves lots of running. The shoe doesn’t have a lot of cushioning and since the midsole material is a flattened platform, it’s thinner which allows your foot to lay flatter and closer to the ground. This increases your stability, making it ideal for functional workouts like CrossFit.
Though Nanos are popular with the CrossFit crowd, I’m not an avid CrossFitter and I still love the Nanos for functional or boot camp-style workouts that I do on my own. I used to feel like I was a bit wobbly during certain exercises like lunges or speed skaters, but when I wear my Nanos, I honestly do feel a lot more stable and can tell a big difference. If you’ve only ever done squats and lunges in traditional running shoes, I think you’ll immediately love the Nanos. The difference in stability is huge!
Plus, the wider toe box makes them super comfortable for days when I am just walking around the gym training clients.
So what’s the deal with the new Nanos?
According to Reebok, the updated shoe has more flexibility and protection to the outsole with Metasplit grooves and RopePro wraps on the medial and lateral sides. Additional highlights include:
- 360° PU Cast for lightweight, seamless, engineered support and durability
- ETC anti-friction lining to reduce abrasion and heat build up with breathable air mesh
- Dual Density for rearfoot stability and impact protection
- Die Cut Ortholite sockliner
- RCF Natural last enables full foot dispersion for greatest stability with Medial/Lateral Rope Guard and multi-directional outsole splay zone
- 4mm heel to toe drop
Are you ready to win a pair of your own?

I am currently working on rehabilitating my knee after having surgery. I have shoes but am having trouble finding stability while trying to regain my strength. I thought about trying these shoes but was a little hesitant because although I do weight training I am no an avid crossfitter. I have thought about starting crossfit once I am recovered though. I would love to give these shoes a go and see if they work for me!
I just had my first baby, and a new pair of tennies is just the motivation I need to keep staying active! I love the purple!!!
I would love new shoes for boot camps since thats one of my favorite types of workouts since it’s always mixing things up!
I’ve had the same gym shoes for two years now and desperately need another pair..these would be awesome for the classes I take at the gym!!
I recently found your blog through Pintrest. I check my feed reader several times a day to see if you’ve updated. I love your recipes and the workouts you post. I always walk away feeling inspired after reading one of your posts. I’m a stay-at-home mom of 4 kids always trying to eat heallthy and stay in shape. I will be running my first 5K in November! I would love to have a new pair of shoes 🙂
I’m not a cross fitter either, but I love love LOVE me some circuit workouts. I’d love to win a pair of Nanos to work out in and experience the difference between them and my current Nikes (which are just regular athletic shoes).
Love Nanos! I’ve been hoping to get my hands on a pair of these for bootcamp and cross training workouts!
I’m a new college student, and I would love a great pair of sneakers to wear to the gym!
I totally feel the same way about feeling unsteady when doing lunges! I would feel more confident doing them at the gym if i was more stable and didnt look like i was going to fall over 🙂
I recently started doing the functional workouts you post and I need all the help I can get!
i would LOVE to try the latest version of the nanos to have a little more flexibility and protection. thanks so much – to pbfingers AND reebok!
I’m always buying new gym shoes and love to try different brands and styles. Yes please!
I am in desperate need for some new shoes!
I’m a teacher, constantly on my feet in a class where over three fourths are 11 year old boys! Functional shoes would be perfect (squat by desk, lunge to get paper falling off desk, sprint to copy machine, jump to staple paper high on wall…)
I would love a new pair to help me through my Stroller Strides class. I need some new motivation!!
I’d really like to win because I’m a poor college student challenging myself to try out new forms of exercise this year!
I love the look of these shoes and they sound amazing for workouts!! I truly need a new pair of shoes for my morning workouts!!
I would love to win those gorgeous purple sneaks! The 4mm drop is just perfect for my running style!
i’d love to win a pair for my workouts
I was doing lunges today and lost my balance several times! The Nano’s might be just the shoe I need!
I’ve been wanting to try these for a while now!
I have the first generation nanos and I love them! I think the 3.0s look awesome and would love to try the new and improved nanos!
love the shoes and it is almost time for some new ones.
I’m in desperate need of new sneakers!
I am a body pump fan and have been dying to try the Nanos!
I would love these shoes. They are perfect for some of the classes I do at the gym such as body attack. I just bought some nikes for this class, but they SUCK!
I’ve been trying to do all of my workouts in running shoes and I’ve noticed that they are definitely not built for activities like lunges! I’d love to have a shoe that is actually designed to support me for the activities I am doing – and to keep my running shoes for runs!!
In desperate need of a new pair and would like to happily throw away the old!
I’ve had my eye on these shoes and keep hearing how awesome they are! I work in a gym and do more functional workouts than anything else so these would be so perfect.
I would love to win these new Nanos because I need more stability in my strength training shoes!
I just started working out again, and I would love these shoes to help keep me motivated!
these shoes look great! they would be perfect for a variety of workouts.
Would love to try these for bootcamp! Thanks for the awesome giveaway Julie!
I just started couch to 5k and I would really like some motivation to run. My current running shoes are old and I am still undecided what shoe to buy! These shoes would be great for me to get back up on my feet! ( no pun intended )
I would love to win a pair for the stability and the 4mm heel to drop features! They seem like an awesome pair of shoes!
I am getting ready to start a new bootcamp class and these sound like great shoe to wear during it!
I would love to win these shoes! I’ve heard you rave about Reeboks for a while on the blog but I haven’t been able to buy a pair yet. I just got my first teaching job (first grade!!!!) and though we started in August, we don’t get paid until the end of September (hence the waiting to buy). Free shoes=best day!! 🙂
I admit I haven’t worn Reeboks in years but lately they’ve really stepped up their game and these shoes look and sound awesome. I’m always looking for shoes to use for weight and circuit training rather than my running shoes. These would be awesome!!
I just started a new job this week at a health care organization that is committed to wellness. I am on the Wellness Committee, and I need a new shoe to use when I work out at the company gym before or after work!
I’ve recently started my journey to eat clean and work out and would love a new pair of sneakers. I have been eyeing these for awhile and they would definitely motivate me to go to the gym more often!
Julie! Your blog is great and inspirational!
I would love to win a pair of Nanos! I’ve never owned a pair of Reebok shoes and would love to try them out for my workouts. Thanks for the opportunity!
I’m hoping to mix in some new workouts with my running for variety. These would be perfect!
Would love these for CrossFit, and they’re adorable!
i am in dire need for some new kicks! I would love to win!
I’ve had the same pair of sneakers for awhile, but I always chicken out of buying a new pair because I’m worried I won’t like them. This would be a great way to try a completely different type of sneaker!
i’m a broke college kid, free sneakers would be amazing!!
I am a high school fitness teacher; my classes are called “Fit for Life”! I wear a different pair of tennis shoes everyday and would love to add these to my rotation for comfort, leading workouts and style! I know both you and Tina love them and want to feel the stability difference with the nanos!
I definitely need a new pair of cross trainers. I ruined the 2 year old pair I had hiking sooo… what an awesome giveaway!
I would love a pair, b/c not only do I workout daily, but I’m also a personal and I’m currently 7 1/2 months pregnant and I need comfortable shoes for training.
I would love to try out the new Nanos! I recently started going to boot camp with my husband and I’ve been wearing the shoes I trained for and ran my last half in. You are right, they aren’t the best for lunges and squats!!
