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’m training for the Chicago Marathon and just started doing CrossFit for cross training. I would love to feel more stable as I’m learning new skills since all I have are my running shoes!
I would love to win these shoes! I recently started doing more functional type workouts and use my Asics for them…..
I would love to try these new shoes for my at home boot camp style workouts. I am a brand new mom so my balance is still a little off and I feel clumsy on my feet, I’m betting these will definitely help my current stability issues 🙂
I would love a pair for my muscle conditioning classes! I currently wear my running shoes and I definitely notice I’m a little wobbly in them.
I have been doing a crossfit class for a couple of months and loving it. I really need a good pair of shoes!
I would love to use them for Zumba that just started back up at my college!
I really need new gym shoes!
I’d love to win a pair of sneakers because I haven’t bought myself a new pair in such a long time!
I’d like to win these becuase my baby girl is almost 4 months old and I need to start working out again!
I’d love to win these!! I’ve been wanting but a pair but haven’t had a chance. I do functional workouts everyday and need a good,stable shoe!!
I would love to winner because I currently use running shoes for my quick functional workouts and I’d love shoes better made for that activity.
I do a rotation of crossfit and boot camp style workouts at home. I would really like to try the nanos because like you many people have told me they have a balancing effect. I also really like that you said they are still flexible. I don’t like some shoes that can help with stability but they are so rigid that it is hard to move comfortably.
I’d love to win because I’ve never had more than one type of sneaker for workouts before. It would be great to have a specialized shoe for cross training days! (:
I would love a pair of Nanos for my new weights routines. I have been a cardio queen for the past 6+ years, but after reading so much about the benefits of weight training I decided to incorporate them much more into my routine. Now I’m doing weights multiple times a week!
I just joined the YMCA, so these would be great for the bootcamp-style classes that I’ve been trying out!
I would love them! I’m starting Insanity next week and I have wide width feet so the extra toe room sounds wonderful!
Thank you for hosting another 3.0 giveaway! I definitely want to win them for more stability in my Body Pump classes. I’ve been wearing running shoes – and just like you said I definitely feel unstable during lunges! I think these could help a lot 🙂
We have been working out more, and having some shoes with better grip would really help
I would love to win this shoe after reading so many good things about it!!
I just took my very first crossfit class on Tuesday and have instantly fallen in love! (I’m still killer sore!). As an avid runner I know the importance of GOOD shoes, and I’m not sure my running shoes will fit the bill for all of those box jump burpees!
Would love to win a pair of the purple Nanos 3.0
I would like to feel more stable while doing squats and lunges. Thanks for the giveaway.
I would love to win these because I have loads of running shoes but no cross-training shoes. After suffering a stress fracture, I have realized the importance of incorporating cross-training.
love these! i have wonderful running shoes that i’ve been fitted for, but i really should be using different shoes to lift.
I would love some functional shoes for cross-training and gym workouts! Especially so that I can preserve my asics for running only!
I need some new shoes for my Zumba classes. 🙂
I am having stability issues now! I was just diagnosed with piriformis and will not be doing any running for a while. These shoes will help with the stability while I do strength training workouts.
I would LOVE to win these because my weak ankles often make it difficult to do certain exercises! These sound like they may be just the thing I need 🙂
Although I’m not a crossfitter either I’m an avid lover of BodyPump and other boot camps. I would certainly enjoy more support than I have in my running shoes while taking those classes!
I just bought a groupon for 15 crossfit classes (totally nervous I am going to feel like an amateur) and these would make me feel like a pro!!!
plus, who doesn’t love NEON ?!?!!!
I would love to win these awesome shoes because you can never have enough running shoes! Thanks for opportunity to win 🙂
I would love to win these! My fiancé and I are starting a new “clean” lifestyle starting after the holiday weekend! New shoes would be a great kickstart 🙂
Gosh, this seems to be a really big year for sneaker launches! These look really unique– I haven’t tried a flat sneaker yet for weight days. I’m sure the stability and low profile would feel great!
I’d love a pair for my daily lifting workouts at the gym!
These would be so fun to try! I’ve only ever used my running shoes to workout in.
I am starting to do some HIIT style workouts at home and would love to try out a pair. I just spent a bunch of money on Under Armour shoes and am not happy with them 🙁
I’d love a pair! I’m training for the Chicago marathon and using old running shoes for my cross training/weight training and feel they are not the right shoe. I’d love to to have a specific pair for my non-running workouts! Thanks!
I would love to win these shoes! I have recently gotten more into bootcamp style workouts, and these sound like they would be perfect!
I have heard all the rave about the Nanos and since I wear my running shoes for every type of workout I do, I would love to give these a try.
I’d love to win these sneakers because I totally lost my balance while doing lunges the other day! Looking for new stability shoes 🙂
I have been eyeing these nanos for a while! I think they would be great for my functional workouts and Bodypump 🙂 I hope I win!
I love the look of the Nano 3.0! I’ve been doing a lot more boot camp/functional training lately and I’d LOVE to not wobble on my lunges!! 🙂
I love the Nanos!!!! They are the perfect shoe for crossfit and just about any workout. They can be used for lifting, running or any type of class! Absolutely love them!!!
I would love to have them as an extra pair of gym shoes (I only have one pair right now).
I have been dying to try the new nanos but with my oldest daughter just starting her first year of college…the nanos are not in my budget right now. I think they would be great for the kind of gym I go to though (which focuses on functional training) so I’d love to see the difference they make in my workout.
I’d love to win these for the exact reason you mentioned — doing lunges and speed skaters in my running shoes is a disaster waiting to happen. I need more stability! 🙂
I keep saying I want to try Crossfit; this would be a great push to actually do it!
I would love to win a pair of these! They are super cute and I need a new pair of gym shoes. I do boot camp classes, crossfit classes and run so I’m always in need of another pair of shoes.
I would love a brand new pair of gym shoes and I would love to try these out! 🙂
I would LOVE to win these shoes!! I strength train and do a lot of Olympic lifting and would love to supplement my workout with these 🙂
