Shoes for CrossFittin’
Sometimes it’s tough to find a shoe for CrossFit that can meet all your needs: not only are they cute, but they NEED to be functional for running and lifting. Sure, you have your running shoes, your casual sneaks, maybe even your Vibrams, but what shoe can you wear that’ll meet any WOD’s demands? The…
