A stable foundation for lifting
It's hard to imagine Olympic weightlifting without weightlifting shoes. But you don't have to be a classic Olympic weightlifter to benefit from these specialized shoes. Powerlifters, Strong(wo)men or anyone who likes to squat or has squat variations like front squats or overhead squats in their training programme can't go wrong with weightlifting shoes. And for many other exercises, such as lunges or thrusters, you can optimize your training with these shoes.
Stable & non-slip squat shoe
To perform solid squats, you need stable shoes. This in turn can have a positive influence on exercise performance and also contribute to injury prevention. The hard plastic wedge at the heel, with a height of 2.3cm, improves the lower body levers, in favour of an upright upper body position and forms a solid shoe base. For all those who prefer high bar squats, this makes a good argument for weightlifting shoes.
At the heel, there is a double reinforcement up to the midfoot to ensure lateral stability of the foot in the shoe. In addition to the lacing, there are two Velcro fasteners in the midfoot area that can be closed in opposite directions for an optimal, firm fit. The sole is quite rigid and offers good grip on the ground, ideal for dynamic exercises such as snatching and pushing, but some also swear by weightlifting shoes for bench pressing.
For an absolute strong grip during training, you can rely on our chalk collection.
The Strength Shop Weightlifting shoes fit great and the heel elevation is superb for squatting. Highly recommend!

Great gym shoe
Great fit. Comfortable. Very firm sole with relatively high heel. These are NOT all-round trainers that you could use for a game of tennis but if you are looking for something to give you a firm foundation for a heavy squat or bench then these are great.

Fantastic
This is a fantastic product. These shoes are comfy to wear and help me feel more planted while doing weighted squats.
