The Adidas Dropset Trainer 3 has remained relatively consistent with the Dropset 2 with a few key construction updates.
Last year, the Dropset Trainer 2 was what I would be the dark horse of the cross-training shoe scene. I did NOT expect them to be as good as they were so I was super hyped to buy, test, and review the Dropset Trainer 3.
In my Dropset 3 review, I break down all of the key details to know about this model and help you decide if this shoe is right for you.

At the end of the day, the Dropset Trainer 3 is good, and I think the construction updates make it a stronger shoe for CrossFit and durability.
They kept the midsole and outsole, which make this model awesome for lifting, and buffed the materials around the midfoot and toe box.
My only gripe with this shoe is that with the more rigid upper, the toe box does feel a smidge more snug which I think could cause some sizing issues for some.

I've been thinking about getting either the Metcon 9 or Dropset 3 to upgrade from my Reebok Nano X3, primarily for cross training. I think I'm getting this. Thanks for the in-depth review!

Ay, think you'll be happy with them! Thank you, homie!

@SteveBIRK 25 дней назад

I only have one lift in them and it was a heavy squat day and they were PLANTED. My RADs are pretty stable too but I think the heel in the DS3 makes it feel a tad sturdier. I did have some issue with the heel going up so high on a walk I got some rubbing. Wasn't that much of an issue during the lift. I have a 2E foot and they fit great but you are right about the toe box being a little aggressive. Nothing too serious and it felt like it loosened up by the end of the workout. Have yet to try them crossfit.

@jamesfranko1568 12 дней назад

You are lying lol the back upper part is way too high to be suitable for running let alone fast pace walking and it's heavy lol

@thatfitfriend 12 дней назад

@@jamesfranko1568 bruh, at no point did anyone say it’s amazing for running but it can work, especially if you’re a forefoot and midfoot striker doing short bouts. I legit say in this review not great for long running and heel strikers because of the heel. Did you watch the video or you just spouting off based off of limited contexts in comments? 😂

@jamesfranko1568 12 дней назад

@@thatfitfriend I actually own this pair lol I love the design so much which is why I kind of am a repeat customer of this for 3 times but I've given up on it cuz the upper back is just way too high not only that but hard plastics and gave me blister on achilles at any given time so I had to stop. You are paid by Adidas. I have no problem when I'm wearing socks above my ankle but this is definitely not a shoe for high intensity exercises.

@thatfitfriend 12 дней назад

@@jamesfranko1568 I’m not paid, lmao. I buy everything on this channel - you must be new here, huh? Ask anyone who’s been around if I’m paid… I also mention how the higher boot can be a turnoff for some. You likely have a flatter Achilles which causes that rub which can happen in some - part of the individuality of stuff, but you can’t blanket your own issues on everyone - make it known but to speak so bluntly for everyone shows your lack of understanding of the review/channel. You had a bad experience with em which is fine, but share that context as to why for folks and move on. You sound like youre projecting your bad experience and taking it out on my review, lol.

Could you do a comparison video of dropset 2 and 3 ?

@stephenvogel6971 25 дней назад

Currently have the Metcon 9, I really like the DS3 but I feel like I should wait for the Metcon 10 to compare unless you have some insider knowledge of the 10 already? The Metcon 9 has been good to me but I can’t do that rope guard again!

@thatfitfriend 25 дней назад

10 will likely be a continuation of the 9 so if you like them and wait or go DS3, I think you’ll be sitting pretty 👌

@DIRTYDONUT35X 26 дней назад

I like the dropset 2 but want something wider and a little more minimal. Thinking of trying something different like the notorious lift radix.

@thatfitfriend 23 дня назад

You could also try the Born Primitive Savage 1 if you want to stick with trainer but want less stack height. Radix are solid if you're going barefoot!

@robertcooper7827 24 дня назад

Dropset 2s were my favorite shoes since the Metcon Sport but sadly the same size in the 3s as the 2s were too short and tight in the toe box. Had to return

@thatfitfriend 23 дня назад

Yep, I figured this would be an issue for some. Problem with making the upper more rigid. Bummed to hear that, homie

@Shacodemayo 18 дней назад

Hey Jake, what shoes would you recommend for a 2E-3E width foot and a high arch? I currently own the primus lite 3s but find them too narrow in the midfoot (the toebox is fine) and too flat for my high arch. I'm thinking of trying these but I'm a little concerned they're going to be too narrow in the midfoot as well. Also considering the primitive savage 1s but i'm interested to see if you think there are any better options.

@thatfitfriend 17 дней назад

If you try these out, I'd go through Adidas or Amazon so you can easily return in case they're too snug. I'd try Born Prim Savage 1 or VIKTOS Core Gym/2 - those may give you the space/width you're after!

@renaud_ 25 дней назад

Cool review but I would like to see a comparison section where you compare the tested shoe with other models. Many of us do not have the opportunity to try all the models and it would allow us to better "understand" the shoe since. I love the UA Tribase Reign 2 and still wear them now but it's time to retire them🤣I don't like what UA did with the new iterations, so I just ordered the Dropset 3 and Nano X4. I would like to test the Haze, RAD One and CX-T2 but it is not easy to find them in Europe (Belgium). I can order them but it's not easy to know which size to choose and given the costs, returns are almost impossible. The Dropset 3 feel good on feet but I don't think I could use them for all my WODs. Which shoe would you choose to go with?

@thatfitfriend 24 дня назад

I have round-ups and film comparisons separately! Haha, feel you - no one wants to spend all of that on them, too, which is my goal. Save you time and money. I’ll have more comparisons as I test them more. If I did it all in one video, then it would be like 30-40 minutes long 😅 CXT-2 and DS3 is one of my next ones I’d try RAD if you have narrow or medium foot width! Haze is also sick and TYR is good but may feel too chunky for you through the midfoot if you don’t love the newer Nanos

@renaud_ 24 дня назад

@@thatfitfriendI would watch that 40 min video 😂 But I understand that you want to test it more. I do have a narrow foot so interesting comment on the RAD 😬 The Nano X4 wears pretty well at first glance. I ordered another size just to be sure. Thanks for your feedback 🙌🏻

Ok I ordered both metcon 8 and these dropset 3 and the dropset win hands down. Way way more comfortable while providing the same stability. The Metcons feel clunky when walking around while the dropsets feel like regular sneakers.

Who wears training shoes outside the gym?

@thatfitfriend 26 дней назад

A lot of people. Many a contexts outside of your personal use case, homie. For example, I rock em casually if running errands and going to train or don’t feel like bringing multiple pairs with me. I know a lot of folks who walk to their gyms in diff countries and like wearing them to and from, and there are always comments on videos asking so I test for that 🫡 Peep my other Dropset videos, always comments about that cut out in rainy settings
