Weightlifting Shoes?
I've recently gotten into "crossfit" style workouts. I've always been more interested in practical strength and athleticism than just being a hulking monster. A lot of guys on other forums recommend weight lifting shoes for squats, cleans, deads etc. I wanted to see if anyone on here has actually owned/used a pair. I found a whole blog dedicated to reviews and stuff at http://buyweightliftingshoes.com The adidas look really nice but I have wide feet. Anybody have any thoughts on this?

ive seen some of the big guys, body builders wear work style boots while in the gym. Thats a thought also, those shoes seem to be a fancy tennis shoe for the price....

I've seen the work boots too, even Ronnie Coleman wears 'em. The other thing I see, at least at the gym I go to, they go barefoot for deadlifts. It's only a cpl of guys, but they're pretty strong, they rep 4 plates without a belt and for a lot of reps.

After competing and watching a few Powerlifting meets id say more guys use Chuck Taylors 29-39 dollars . Id say more guys go with the High tops but i use the low cut ones. The idea is the flatter to the floor the better avoid anything that has even a slight heel

i wear me some Otomix martial art's shoes. they are almost weightless and have them a very thin sole so you feel well grounded. they suck for cardio though cause they offer no support. Otomix sells "weightlifting" shoes as well. they've been selling these for a long time now and most all bodybuilders in the 90s rocked em'.
these are what i have: http://otomix.stores.yahoo.net/original.html these are the bodybuilding ones: http://otomix.stores.yahoo.net/ultrain.html
