NIKE Women's Speedrep Gymnastics Shoe

Product Information

So I was mega keen to give these new training shoes a good run for their money, and its fair to say they definitely got a thorough testing.

Nike has used it vast experience across practically every sport out there to come up with its attempt at the perfect all rounder. The SuperRep gave a soft ride, but that was about it. At mid- high speeds my ankle felt like it was about to roll at any point, due to the loose heel and high amount of foam under the rear foot. The high cushioning underfoot also made me feel like I was even jumping higher and more easily out of the burpee;- placebo effect perhaps, but if anything makes a burpee feel easier and more fun then it’s a positive in my book. For this purpose only, the SuperReps came into their own. For burpees, the break in the forefoot bends exactly where the toes do, and the slanted sole underneath the toes genuinely felt like I was going faster. It offers the stability for lifting weights through a chunky, wide sole, but cushioned landings to keep energy levels high in a vigorous class.Underfoot I felt like my weight was being tipped forwards towards my toes when walking due to the slanted sole underneath the toes. This took some getting used to, and I was really conscious of this for the first few hours. However, if there’s any chance you’re going to do any type of lifting or running, I’d look into another type of training or running shoe. The SuperRep is for high impact boutique style fitness classes, which was evident from Nike’s social media marketing of the SuperRep at the beginning of 2020.

The SuperRep is a whole new type of training shoe designed especially for high intensity, fast paced exercise. Traditionally, the ideal training shoe is seen as something that’s stable, flat with a little bit of midsole cushioning for a short run.

After running in the SuperReps on a previous day and feeling very unstable I was pretty nervous to actually lift a barbell in these for sake of injuring myself… but they performed OK. The unique selling point of the SuperRep is the stand out sole unit offering extra cushioning in high impact, high energy classes.
