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 would love to win these!! I work at a gym, a hospital, and a bar! Walking around so much is rough especially adding in a workout everyday! Plus I wear shoes out so fast I would love to try these out. My feet need them! 🙂
I don’t have good “working out” shoes (just running shoes) – I think these would be great for the gym!
I’d love to win– I am hoping to train for a 5k next month and can’t afford new running shoes right now!!
I’d love to win! Thanks!
I would love a pair of Nanos!
I do a lot of CrossFit style training at my gym and never knew I was using running shoes the entire time. I always just wear the same pair since it’s all I have, but after reading this, can definitely see how specific shoes can make all the difference. I’m on a weight loss track to lose 10 more lbs, so gym time has definitely increased and these shoes could be an amazing help!! 🙂
These would be great for my training! I do crossfit most of the time, and I use my running shoes. I would love to have more stability during my workout. These would be a huge help!
These shoes look amazing! I just started crossfit and would love shoes that are tailored to that style of working out! They have so many amazing colors!
I’d love to win because I haven’t bough myself new running shoes in 3 years! My last ones were a Christmas present and they were great for many months, but once they started to wear down, I lost motivation to go running. Maybe a new pair will help me get it back 🙂
I love how you listed all of the specs on these! I am a runner (and have my favorite running shoes) but recently joined the world of weightlifting and functional workouts! I have been really unstable in some of the exercises, and now I know why – my running shoes aren’t built for cross training stability! I would love to win these and hopefully continue to grow my love affair with functional training and weight training.
I would love these! My current sneakers give me blisters on my toes so the wider toe box would be great!
I would love to win because I need to seriously get back on the working out track! I’ve definitely fallin off the wagon.
I would love a pair of these for my boot camp style workouts!
the shoes i currently wear are ‘walking’ shoes and frankly, their old. i could use a new pair of work out shoes that are versatile!
I have been thinking about these for a couple weeks now!! I have heard nothing but good things! I would love to win to try them out doing at home “cross-fit” like workouts!
I would love to win a pair because I am need of a cute new pair of sneakers!
I would love to see what all the rage is about these shoes. They are also really cute!
I just started medical school, and I am in need of some comfy shoes that are also highly functional for my busy day!
These shoes sound amazing! I just started taking a CrossFit styled class at my gym and have definitely felt a bit wobbly. LOL , lets blame my running shoes instead my lack of coordination 🙂
Anyway, I love your blog. Please keep posting. You are a great motivation for me to continue on amy path to healthy living. So many other blogs focus on extreme calorie reductions and crazy exercise regimes and I appreciate that you keep it “real.”
So, thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge/experience/ life with us.
I need to win these, because I need some new Reeboks in my life 🙂 and these are so cute!!!
I have seen these pop up EVERYWHERE and even tested them out since one of my friends purchased them and we happen to be the same size 😉 Needless to say, I have forgotten all about my former sneaker favorite –Nike Free– and these Nanos are all I can think about 🙂
OMG! Where to begin! I really want to win these shoes because I’ve always wanted to try reeboks, and I just own nike Airs, so I want to compare the two and see if Reebok is better because they look like they are way more comfortable!!
I would love to have these while I train for my wedding next fall 🙂 I think they would be perfect for some additional motivation!
Hi Julie, I’d love to win a pair of these shoes because I’ve recently re-evaluated my health after a bad health scare and am starting a new fitness regime. I’m a single mom to two teenagers with very little help and really need a good pair of sneakers for working out.
Plus, new workout gear is always super motivational 🙂
Would looooove to win these shoes – they look awesome and I have not yet owned a pair of Reebok shoes.
I believe these would be an amazing first 🙂
I would love to have a pair to cross train in besides my running shoes. I completely agree with you on the wobbly feeling when doing skater. I also love the wide toe box as I crave shoes that have a bit of extra room up there.
I have only ever had regular running tennis shoes, so having a pair of these would be great! I’ve been getting into more functional training lately and it would be interesting to see the difference these shoes make in balancing and stability!! I would love to win a pair of these shoes 🙂
Love me some Reeboks!!
I’m always on the look-out for the perfect “everyday” gym shoe! These look so comfortable!
I am trying a new gym out this month that has boot camp/circuit training classes. These shoes would be perfect for that!
I’ve been on the hunt for a new gym shoe, but am too incisive to make a decision. Getting to try these out would be perfect. And hopefully help with that really graceful ‘wobble’ I have during lunges! 🙂
I would love to give the Nanos a try. I constantly work on balance since my Achilles surgery. The added stability would be a blessing.
Recently, I’ve let the “busy”ness of life get in the way of my workout schedule. I would love to win a pair of the Reebok Nano 3.0 to help me get back on the track (and in the gym)!
Hi Julie – I’m starting Cross-Fit after Labor Day (never done it before) and would LOVE new shoes to kick things off right!
I’m a Crossfit newbie and would love to win a pair of Nanos! I’ve never had a pair and would love to see what all the hype is about! 🙂
My new pup recently chewed up my tennis shoes..I’m in the market for some new ones and I would love to try the Reebok Nanos for my functional workouts at the gym!
I’ve heard the nanos are great! I’d love to win a pair and here is why: when I was a little girl, my mother (who, by the way, is wonderfully supportive and encouraging in every aspect of my life) noticed that I was interested in ballet. As a tall little 4-year-old, she enrolled me in ballet classes but noticed that I didn’t stay on my feet all the time. I was so clumsy, in fact, that I persistently had bruises over my legs at all times. As such, she gave me an additional middle name – “Grace”. Stability was not my thing growing up, I’ve gotten better since then, but sure would appreciate a pair of nanos to help me as I have just started crossfit. Just like my mom sweetly pointed out to me – we all have flaws or areas where we aren’t the best, but that doesn’t mean it has to ruin us, we just identify it and work with it!
I’m always on the hunt for new tennis shoes! I recently got a pair that’s great for low impact exercises, so I’d love to try the nanos for circuit training!
I would love a pair of these for weight lifting!
These would be awesome for the workouts I do from the Best Body Bootcamp!
I just joined a new kettlebell gym in my neighborhood and these would be perfect for wearing during classes
I love the bright colors! Also, I’m just getti g into crossfit and looking for a more stable shoe!
I love my minimus’ and Nike free’s but have wanted to try Nanos for crossfit and squats, squats, squats!
Please!! I could use a good crossfit shoe. I started working out and use my old New Balance running shoes which slip and are uncomfortable doing my workouts. I am also recovering from a knee and tib/fib injury and the stability and flexibility of the Nanos sounds like they would be perfect. Please, pretty please. Thanks
Ahh what a great giveaway! I am an avid crossfitter and I’m in need of a new pair of Nano’s (I have the 2.0’s). I’m also having issues with tendinitis in my foot and I need something with good support for all things running, box jumps and double unders.
I would love to win a pair of these shoes! I do many different types/styles of workouts and think these would be great to try!
I could definitely use these for sailing cross-training. Great review by the way.
To be honest, I’d want to win these to give to my husband. He started going to Crossfit a few months ago, and he’d LOVE a pair of these shoes!
I really need good work-out shoes in addition to my running shoes! I would love to try these!
I always have trouble finding running/training shoes that will be flexible enough to run with my orthopedic inserts. I feel like such a dork when I have to bring them to the store to try on! Either my foot feels jammed inside the shoes, or the shoes that don’t feel cramped are too stiff to move adequately. I love running and switching up my workouts, I just wish I could find a comfortable shoe to complete with my crazy feet! I’ll have to check these out. Thanks!
