As we close out 2022 and head into 2023, I wanted to make a list of some of my favorite and the best weightlifting shoes on the market.
There are a lot of different weightlifting shoes to choose from and every model varies slightly based on its construction. Some models are great for beginners while others excel specifically for the sport of weightlifting.
In this best weightlifting shoes round-up, I included 8 of my favorite weightlifting shoes from this past year that I'll continue to use in 2023.
0:00 Best Weightlifting Shoes Intro
0:30 TYR L-1 Lifter

13:09 Adidas Powerlift 5
15:27 Adidas Adipower 3
17:49 Closing Thoughts
In this video, I tried to include a nice wide range of weightlifting shoes that excel for different reasons.
Is there a top model across the board? It really depends on the context of your training and what you prefer with your weightlifting shoes.
All eight of the weightlifting shoes in this video have nuances that help them have their own respective strengths and weaknesses.

@fredericksantos7958 Год назад

Very helpful overview review! Interesting to hear that you found the inov-8 G380s to be quite narrow, as I've heard others say they're quite wide/spacious (one even saying they rival the TYR L-1s in terms of width), this would definitely come down to the anatomy of each persons foot of course.

@thatfitfriend Год назад

Thank you! 🤝 Ehhhh, I wouldn’t go that far with their width. Hit me on IG and I’ll send you a vid side by side of them. Pretty noticeable difference, honestly, but def - anatomy can play a huge role in sizing perceptions! For additional context - I enjoy the fit of the Inov-8 for the most part. The upper around the toe box can feel a little snug on the lateral side, though.

@zacmcb 9 месяцев назад

My heel feels pretty loose in the adida powerlifts but ive enjoyed them as a beginner squat shoe. It all comes down to how you sit your foot in the shoe while lacing and strapping it. Im glad i found your channel it is really helpful and well produced. Keep up the quality content.

@thatfitfriend 9 месяцев назад

Thank you, my friend! I really appreciate that feedback and you taking the time to check the content out!

@SuperSwifte Год назад

What you said about the new version of Do-Win's being different makes sense. I bought them because I heard they were good for wide feet, but they're not really that wide. And the sole isn't quite flat either. There's a kind of pivot point that can cause you to rock back and forth. Still not a bad shoe for a beginner. Will probably get some TYR L1's later this year.

@TheCat15 Год назад

@davidcoelho9891 Год назад

I recently bought the Reebok ll2 as my first weightlifting shoes for €120, and I'm so happy with them. To be clear, I'm an amateur, and I've only started doing OLY 2 months ago, so I don't know how valid my opinion might be. Anyway, my first week with them was weird, because I've never used any high heel shoes and was using the Adidas The Total. But now I love them. They are really stable and well constructed. For €120 it might be the best pick.

@thatfitfriend Год назад

That's a great deal for that model! Thank you for sharing feedback, friend 🤝

@BasementBrandon Год назад

Great video. I've been eying those TYR lifters, my issue has been transitioning back to heels after going minimal for squatting for so long. Toe box always is too tight and I feel like I don't get good enough feel of the ground b/c of the hard soles.

@thatfitfriend Год назад

Thank you and I feel that! A lot of mechanical changes that come with tweaking your heel-to-toe drop while being super specific with your training/lifts. I sent you a video of the Primus, TYR, and Tolos model on IG. Hope that sizing reference helps, amigo!

@jmk261 Год назад

Another real pro of the Romaleos 4, warranty. I had the 4s for about a year and I don't know I guess I got unlucky and the sole ripped from one end to the other. The warranty process is slow but as long as you are the original buyer and bought within 2 years from a licensed vendor, they'll cover it with a voucher. So I ended up with a replacement covered by them

Not bad at all and great points! 🤝

@manuelgranada5509 Год назад

@jmk261 im looking into those Nike romaleos, did you buy them in the size you buy your regular shoes? Or did you go up half size?

@jmk261 Год назад

@@manuelgranada5509 I bought them in my standard size. I have a fat-ish foot, where usually adidas is like a smidge too tight but everything else is good. I dont find the toe box prohibitive and I have wide ish toes. Depends on feel though. Just make sure if you don’t like them you take care to make sure you can return them. I found that it takes about 5-7 sessions of use to get used to them and for them to feel broken in.

Thanks for this! How come the Adipower 3's heel height is stated as 20mm in the video (timestamp: 17:25) vs 22mm stated by the manufacturer? I have the Adipower 3 and Reebok LL2 and the Adipower's heel does feel slightly lower but I'm not sure If I'm just imagining things.

@thatfitfriend Год назад

That’s a typo on my end! Thanks for spotting that, I must have missed that update when building out these graphics 😬 Could be how there’s a little more arch in the Adipower so it feels less dramatic despite technically being the same

@MegaYummyjelly Год назад

Would you recommend the powerlift 5 or savaleos for a entry level shoe for low bar squats, deadlifts, standing military press, bench press etc? I can't decide between the two.

@thatfitfriend Год назад

I'd go Powerlift 5. Also, I wouldn't recommend wearing them for everything and I have content on that! For example, they'll be a sub-optimal shoe for deadlifting and changing your shoe's heel-to-drop drastically for presses don't make a whole lot of sense, too. Can expand on this more if you'd like!

@thatfitfriend Год назад

Hey, thank you! They're a good shoe, for sure. I think if you can find them for a fair price and like them, then you should be set in them and I wouldn't stress them not being as "premium" as the Adipower 3s. Both are great shoes!

@singhonlo67 7 месяцев назад

You are right about Romaleos 4's toe box. I ordered my normal size 8.5 and my toes were squashed at the toe box. I returned and ordered size 9. It is still very narrow and uncomfortable in the toebox with size 9. I have a bunion on my right foot, but my left foot is standard size.

@riccardorodriguez1535 Год назад

Man, I feel the Reebok Lifter PR's are so underrated... recently bought them to replace a pair of Adidas Powerlift 3 from years ago, I would love to invest in a higher heel but it's not in the cards at the moment, though I love the fit and stability (what is the stability insert made of? It resembles plastic instead of foam) and feel like I upgraded anyway

@thatfitfriend Год назад

The PRs are awesome and wicked slept-on. I have them included in my written round-up! I regularly rock my PRs for training. I didn't include them here because they're starting to get tougher to find - not because of their performance. Essentially, I wanted to include options that tend to have more availability as we head into 2023!

@Ian_R_Anderson Год назад

Helpful review thanks! I had Adipower 1 shoes however, I lost them in my move. I'll probably pick up the 3s. What you said about them being narrow for wide feet is true however even true to size they are pretty durable. I had my Adipower 1 shoes for almost 5 years and they held up pretty well. Keep in mind the only heavy lifts I did in them were squats and deadlifts.

The TYR L-1 lifters seem to be the best, but the price point is very steep. In your videos and articles I cannot find another shoe with high heel suitable for wide feet. Any other recommendations? Thanks!

I want to review them soon, but NGL…since I buy all of the shoes I review, I had them in the cart with the Turf Trainers the other day and I couldn’t get myself to spend the $500 on the two shoes because I had already bought a bunch of models/plus holiday season. So dang expensive… I’ll tackle them in Q1, though. They’ve been on my list. I’m not sure about sales. NOBULL rarely has them!

@j.speaks8752 5 месяцев назад

Jake, excellent videos. I’m pretty sure I’ve watched all of them at least once. I’m looking into the Powerlifts but this video you recommend ordering half size up for normal to wider feet. In your powerlift 5 specific video you say normal to slightly wider fit would order true to size? I’m debating on just getting the lifter PR 3 so I do t have to worry about sizing, only concern would be the Velcro or lack there of over time.

If you're a beginner with a wide foot width, I see there are almost no options...

The other options were Savaleos or Metcon but more expensive than Legacy Lifter. It still feels like buying ferrari right after getting a driving license though. If you were in my situation, what would you have done?

100% don’t need specific footwear when you’re just starting out, however, spending time to find a pair that actually fits makes a world of difference.

I have reebock legacy 2 since 2 years, they are very strong and the best wl shoes i never had ! The only "problem" is the weight. It is damn heavy xD But it is ok, you don't feel the weight after 1 month :-p And it is ok, I do sometimes weightlifting cycles and I don't feel to lost speed when I lift :-p

* before i had adipower 2 : adipower have narrow stance, now when i try adipower after reebok, i don't feel good with my feets inside don't be afraid to take bigger size on your shoes too* let your feet breathing in your shoes (it is maybe for that I don't feel good into adipower now : i took reebok with one more size)

Weightlifting shoes don’t have a ton of wide options atm. We’re starting to see a shift towards them, just takes time since they’re a niche shoe most companies don’t update a ton

@RetreatHell518 2 месяца назад

I had Adipower1's for 7 years and I decided to buy the Romaleo4's, since my Adipowers were half size up, I thought that I'll buy my actual shoe size (10/44). At first the shoes felt V E R Y narrow to the point that I'd lose the feeling on my toes (I have wide feet). Then I took the insoles out and replaced them with my old, dusty, worn out and flat insoles of my Adipowers. Now the shoes have much more room and I like the stability that they provide.

Yo dude, did a search today and found some 2.0s on EBay for $350 USD in my size 👀 Think it’s worth copping a pair for some content despite being sold out in most places? Would be more of novelty-style review since it’s an older model.
