MEET THE TRAINING ATHLETES: THE FACES OF REEBOK TRAINING

Training Shoes Built by Athletes, For Athletes

Learn more about how Fee Saghafi, Tom Wilson, Pierre Gasly, and Christian Harris use Reebok Training styles to train for peak performance.


Training is more than a routine. It is a mindset shaped by discipline, consistency, and the pursuit of better. Every rep, every sprint, and every session builds something deeper than strength—it builds identity. Reebok’s training footwear is designed within that reality, created alongside athletes who demand more from themselves and their gear. The Nano X5 Edge stands at the center of that process, tested and trusted by a group of athletes whose training styles span strength, speed, endurance, and precision. These are the athletes who push the limits of performance every day.

Fee Saghafi: Strength Meets Grit

Fee Saghafi brings intensity and intention to everything she does. As a cross-training athlete and coach, her training is rooted in grit, combining high-output conditioning with technical strength work. Her sessions are fast-paced and unforgiving, demanding a shoe that can keep up without compromise. For Fee, training is also about community—showing up, putting in the work, and lifting others along the way. The Nano X5 Edge supports that effort with the stability and durability she needs to move confidently through complex workouts, from heavy lifts to dynamic movements.

Tom Wilson: Power Through Performance

Ice hockey right wing Tom Wilson approaches training with the mindset of a power athlete. His preparation focuses on explosiveness, agility, and endurance, building the kind of strength that translates directly into high-performance competition. Off the ice, his training is relentless, emphasizing speed and force in equal measure. Every movement is intentional, every drill designed to sharpen his edge. The Nano X5 Edge delivers the responsiveness and support required for that level of intensity, helping him generate power while staying grounded and controlled.

Pierre Gasly: Precision Under Pressure

Pro race car driver Pierre Gasly’s training is defined by speed and precision. His sport demands sharp reflexes, core stability, and the ability to maintain focus under extreme pressure. Away from the track, his workouts are built around balance, coordination, and mental clarity. Every detail matters, from foot placement to reaction time. The Nano X5 Edge complements that approach with a lightweight, controlled feel that allows him to move with accuracy and confidence, whether he’s working through agility drills or building strength.

Christian Harris: Versatility in Motion

Christian Harris embodies versatility in training. As a cross-training athlete, his routine spans strength work, conditioning, and technical skill, often within the same session. His training demands adaptability, shifting seamlessly between heavy lifts, gymnastic movements, and high-intensity intervals. Consistency and effort define his approach, pushing through limits to improve across every domain. The Nano X5 Edge provides the multidirectional support and traction he relies on to stay stable and efficient, no matter the workout.

The Common Thread: Training Without Limits

While each athlete trains in their own way, they share a common foundation. Discipline drives their progress. Versatility shapes their routines. A constant pursuit of improvement keeps them moving forward. Reebok’s Nano training shoes are built to meet that same standard, designed to perform across a wide range of training styles without sacrificing comfort or control.

Why do these athletes train in the same shoe?

How do I choose the right Nano model for my training?

The right model depends on your primary training style. If your workouts center on strength and cross-training, the Nano X5 Edge is a strong fit. For high-intensity sessions, the Nano X5 offers responsiveness. If you prioritize stability for lifting, the Nano X4 is a reliable option. If your focus is agility and speed, the Nano 2.0 is a great choice. For lighter workouts, circuits, or general gym use, the Nano Gym provides comfort and ease.
