Best Training Shoes??

[Ziricote]

I'm actually going to go out and buy a pair of Chucks today if I can find a store with them but until now I've been using adidas similar to what Elginyo has got, tbh I don't like them one bit 'cause they aren't quite flat enough on the sole.

Gotcha. Those look intense! You'd have to be a harda$$ to wear those in my gym and not get made fun of haha

Chucks or if you used to wrestle, a pair of old wrestling shoes.

I am dying to try these myself. I use my brooks beasts. I have serious flat feet issues and these are the most supportive shoes I have ever tried.

So what are you guys saying, any shoe with a good flat sole is the kind to get for lifting?







Is barefoot really a good idea?

Recently started going barefoot for squats and deads. Took me a few times out to get used to it, but now I don't think i'll be changing back anytime soon.

Yea lol well I emant what I said about it being for big lifts...if you can't squat at least 315-405 you don't need those shoes haha.

Yup there are a lot of big strong guys who don't use shoes at all in normal training...I actually like the grip and natural feel of it.

Looking for some new kicks to train with. Any suggestions??

five fingers are what i use and their perfect. look weird to some but they are perfect for balance and grip. exactly like going barefoot.

I used to wear wrestling shoes for squats and deads in high school. I really liked it. The shoes also had wicked grip for doing any type of calf work.
I wear Nike Shox or some Air Max now, however I have not had any problems with support but rather my feet sort of shift outwards in my shoes when I squat more than about 315 or so.
