I really like the looks and idea of this shoe, but it just wasn't meant to be for my feet I suppose.
Everything felt great *except* that the toe box swept in too soon on the outside, causing the 3 toes on the outside of my foot to be in constant contact with the shoe, very uncomfortable. The toe box may accommodate most users, but not me and a few other people I've read about. FWIW, I purchased this shoe in 11.5EE and I had a good 1/3"-1/2" of room between my large toe and the end of the shoe...so this wasn't simply a size issue.
The shoe was lightweight, appeared to be made of quality materials at a good price point, and looked good too...I just couldn't see myself trying to Crossfit in them. I've ordered a pair of MT20's, hoping that they'll have a roomier toe box. Only time will tell though, I guess.
If you've got narrow or regular width feet, then go for it...I'm sure you'll love the shoe (assuming you order the correct size). Otherwise, if you've got wide feet, you may want to keep this brief review in mind; as I wear a size 9.5W Army-issued desert boot, and these 11.5W MX20's never gave my toes a chance.
I still gave the shoe 3 stars for the good qualities I listed about it, but due to the toe box issue; I couldn't rate it any higher. I know I have wider feet, but this was also a wide shoe and this issue is documented elsewhere too. Just part of the design. I'd love to see NB come out with an updated version of this shoe with a better toe box that would accommodate a natural splaying of the toes.
Good luck.

First pair of NB shoes. I usually wear a size 9 and so I bought a size 9. Found them to be too small. I will get one half size bigger and let you know.

I burned the sole within 30 seconds of ownership on one 20' rope climb descent.
But otherwise a decent CrossFit shoe.

Honestly, the best crossfit shoes on the market! I've tried them all and these are my favorite. I've woded, deadlifted and squatted heavy in these and they are completely stable and super light. Definetly give them a shot!

So Ive been rocking the NB shoes. I love it. It is super light and super comfy. I used the shoe for everything. I warmed up with some running and double unders and felt phenomenal. I later then did a WOD that had multiple movements with squatting and lots of transition. It was great to squat these shoes and move around in them. I personally felt more stable and the lower profile of the shoe insured that I knew where the weight of my body was place on my feet so I can execute all of the movements properly. They look good enough to even go out in!
