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?

My hubby and I have been trying to get into Crossfit the budget-friendly way by doing WODs at home, and I’ve noticed that my regular running shoes are not very stable for some of the lifts. We’ve been doing them without shoes instead which is probably not the best idea, so a pair of nanos would be amazing!
I’d love to win a pair and they’d help motivate me to give crossfit a try!
I’d love to own a pair and think they’d be great motivation for my at home workouts (excluding running!)
I would love a new pair of Reebok Nano 3’s! I run often but on my non-running days I want a pair of shoes that will work for strength training and conditioning. These shoes would really help.
I always wear converse chucks for lifting at the gym for the same reasons, however they definitely are not ideal for box jumps, burpees, etc. I’d love to try out the Nanos!
I have started to lead a healthier life style after 3 years of gaining weight and really eating terribly. I just joined a gym, and so far lost 15 pounds! These would be a great motivation for me to keep working on a healthier lifestyle.
With well over 15 different pair of athletic shoes in my closet, I have yet to try anything made by Reebok. I would love to try these shoes out on my visits to the gym.
They are cute and I have a wide foot.
I just joined a CrossFit gym next to my house and wore my favorite pair of Brooks running shoes the first day …. NOT IDEAL! I would love to win these awesome Nanos and take my workouts to the next level!
I’d like to win because I am getting in shape for my wedding in December. I have been training all year and could use a new pair of shoes to train in 🙂 Plus my wedding is in December in JAMIACA so you know I’ve gotta be in a bathing suit all week and I need all the extra help I can get.
I would love to win because I have recently become a fan of crossfit and I’ve been wearing my running shoes. These would be perfect to wear for these classes and workouts!!
I’ve only ever done my functional workouts in traditional Asics runnings shoes…I’d love the opportunity to train in the Nano and experience a shoe designed specifically for those type of exercises. Thanks to you and Reebok for offering this awesome giveaway to your readers!
I’d love to win those shoes because I have never had much luck with Reebok so I’d like another shot!
Also, Julie, thank you very much for not making us jump through 500 hoops (read: rafflecopter) to complete your giveaways. It’s a pain in the butt to leave 5 different comments each time, so I like when you only ask for one!
I am in dire need of some good workout shoes since I only use my running ones and I would love to try these out! I am working on a lot of stability exercises to help with some knee problems I have and it sounds like these would be perfect!!
I would love to win these for my circuit training/strength training workouts! Thanks for a awesome chance to win Nanos!!
I would adore a new pair of shoes…I have been wearing the pair for running and cross training, every day, for over a year (plus the colors are fabulous)!
Whew…do I have enough TIME to list WHY I would love these Nanos??? Let’s go with a few…
1. I have been panting like a dog to buy these!! (but the budget won’t allow right now!!)
2. I CF 4-5 times per week and I would really LOVE to at least LOOK the part when I go! 🙂
3. I enter pretty much EVERY contest that is CF related to win some kind of swag…but I NEVER get picked!! (Lead balloon alert….!!)
4. They look great and they have a variety of colors!!
5. Would love to feel like I have an option for shoes to work out. Right now…I use my Brooks Pure Connects (which I love, but I want Nanos!!)
6. I really..really…really..REALLY want to win…I HATE losing!
Is that enough??? 🙂
I would love a pair! I do functional workouts and boot camp classes regularly, but always in running shoes. I want to see for myself how great these Nanos really are!
I’d like to win because while I’ve really wanted to try the Reebok Nanos for quite some time, I am an avid asics fan and can’t quite make the jump!
Ahhhh my Nano 2.0’s are hanging on for their lives by a thread. Seriously. I wear them EVERY single day! I’d love to upgrade to the 3.0 🙂
My bday is in 2 weeks and new shoes are on my list! I’ve been wanting a new pair to help motivate me to exercise more!!
These shoes would be perfect for my boot camp workout class! I think they would also work well for the cardio dance class I attend. Plus they’re cute! Can’t beat that 😉
I just started CrossFit earlier this month and would love these shoes!!
I would love to win because like you, I am a boot camp lover! I’m really focusing on form lately and these would help me to give it my all during all those lunges and box jumps 🙂
I’d love to win a pair! New shoes = instant workout motivation!
I would love to win a pair of the Nano 3.0 as my trainer has started to add more stability exercises to my workout and I feel so wobbly and uncoordinated in my running shoes!
I need some new workout shoes!
I’d really love to win a pair of the Reebok Nano 3.0’s because earlier this month I started going to Kettlebell workout classes twice a week and these shoes (that have good stability, support and small heel to toe drop, etc.) sound perfect! Plus I’ve never ran/worked out in Reebok’s before and I’d love to give them a try! 🙂
I love functional/Crossfit workouts, but I do tend to experience the wobblyness you mentioned. I would love to try out the nanos and get some stability!
I’ve heard so many great things about the nano’s & would love to try them for myself!
These look perfect for my circuit workouts I do on days I don’t run!
I’ve been dealing with chronic ITBS for the last year and am thinking it might be my shoes! I would love to try out a new brand to see if they help!
I love working out, but I do feel unstable sometimes. I would love to try these out!
i want to expand my workout horizon (aka i really want to try crossfit), so hopefully a new pair of shoes will give me some motivation!
I’d love to try these shoes! I always wear my running shoes to the gym but I know these would be awesome!!
I am in dire need for new workout shoes! Love this giveaway!
These shoes seem like the perfect shoes for doing my own bootcamp workout at the gym!
I’ve recently gotten into weight training and noticed just what you mentioned about stability in my normal running shoes. The Nanos seem like a good solution!
I’ve been incorporating a lot more lunges and jump squats into my workouts lately and my Under Armor’s just aren’t cutting it anymore. When I land or push off my front leg it feels like I’m steadying myself more than actually working out. These sound awesome!
From the way you describe these shoes, they would be PERFECT for me! I’m a Cathe devotee and do her dvds almost exclusively 5-6 times a week. These shoes sound like they would be awesome for Cathe’s workouts!
I’ve recently been trying to do more dynamic workouts in the crossfit style but in my gym and my current gym shoes just aren’t doing it – they are not as light and have holes in them so these would be perfect to really kickstart the new routines!
They would be perfect for workouts on the days that I’m not running! 🙂
I run a lot since I’m training for a marathon. I need a pair of non-running shoes for my other workouts. These would be perfect for bodypump!
I need a new pair of kicks so bad! These would be perfect for my post-baby workouts.
I would love to win these because I’ve always loved running shoes, but I know they aren’t always the best for certain exercises. Pick me, pick me! 🙂
The shoes look great!!!
I’m always looking for the perfect cross-training shoes that has structure but also flexibility for lots of different moves. I’d love to try these!
I would love to win these nanos because of all the wonderful praise I have heard…and also I probably shouldn’t do my functional workouts in my running shoes (yikes)
Heck YES I would love a new pair of NANOS! They would be awesome for all of the new classes I am trying, particularly the Cardio Sculpt and Power Sculpt classes! I love the idea of more stability too…I feel like I sometimes trip myself up doing simple lunges. Embarrassment factor = high! Hopefully the Nanos would reduce my in-class trip ups. Or, at least I’ll look more stylish while continuing to work on balance. 🙂
The nanos look so much more stable than my current cross training shoes. Would love to try them out!
