Just like greats on the hardwood and gridiron, CrossFit champion Mat Fraser is getting his own Nike sneaker.<\/p>\n
Dubbed the Nike Metcon 4 “Mat Fraser,”<\/strong> the sneaker sports a jet black upper and gum mid and outsole. Fraser’s love for weightlifting and motorcycles can be seen throughout the shoe as the upper has a diamond grip pattern similar to a barbell. The motorcycle detailing can be found with the bull’s skull on the tongue, quilted lining, gunmetal chrome on the heel and laces tips.<\/p>\n Another noticeable detail are the two circles on the back heel, which represent Fraser’s first-place medals in the CrossFit Games. Fraser’s personal mantra of “hard work pays off” (HWPO) is written on the insoles.<\/p>\n \u201cThese design elements are really\u00a0about celebrating some of my passions inside and outside of the gym,\u201d Fraser said<\/a>. \u201cThis\u00a0shoe gives me such sense of accomplishment. It really gets me amped up to keep doing what I\u2019m doing \u2014 working hard and trying to make myself the best athlete I possibly can.”<\/p>\n Fraser will debut his sneakers in the 2018 CrossFit Games on May 27 and the\u00a0 Nike Metcon 4 “Mat Fraser”\u00a0<\/strong>will be released on June 8 for $150 on nike.com.<\/a><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BjM8Q0nlkXs\/?hl=en&taken-by=mathewfras<\/p>\n
