Couple important points I forgot to touch on during the video:
1. The shoes feel true to size. I wear an 8 in most of my lifters, these are an 8 as well.
2. Another HUGE plus to the shoes is that there is not an upward toe slant. The shoes are relatively flat, unlike most modern shoes. This should contribute more to stability and feeling "grounded".
3. The shoes cost $200, comparable to most other Weightlifting shoes but CHEAPER than the new Adipower 3's.
Thank you all for watching! Please SHARE the video so we can spread awareness about the new TYR Lifters, and leave a like/subscribe to help support the channel if you enjoyed.
See you guys in the next one. 🏋️‍♂️

Most important question for any weightlifter: HOW LOUD DO THESE BADBOYS SMACK THAT FLOOR THOUGH?!

@trainershatehim Год назад

Lmao, I wish I paid a little more attention to that. 😵‍💫

@rosadojoel Год назад

The difference between this and other wide shoes is that it's anatomical meaning that the big toe gets the most space vs. the others the end is shaped like a triangle squishing your feet. You really do not understand anatomical shoes until you've tried them, you'll NEVER go back to regular shoes

@trainershatehim Год назад

I had gotten used to wearing vivobarefoot shoes during my day-to-day, so I totally know what you mean. In the case of the TYRs, something I did miss was the little extra midfoot width from a Romaleo 2 or Anta, but most lifters are tight around the midfoot nowadays anyway.

@evilflowx Год назад

I get so many compliments on the roms "rawdacious" colorway, I almost cannot not lift in them. However, I did just order a pair of the L-1s only because I like trying different things to see the difference for myself. Even if I don't like them, weightlifting shoes have a way of going up in price through the years so I'll have a nice little collection in time. I have way too many weightlifting shoes. :)

@trainershatehim Год назад

I got a pair of the Rawdacious ones to replace my black Roms, I totally agree with you. I also have to agree about the lifters, many of them end up being little collector's items! Keep growing your collection friend, your wallet will be empty but your soul will be full.

@sbtraining1769 Год назад

I have a pair of 727 and the toebox is much narrower than the TYR. Very noticable difference for me

@trainershatehim Год назад

I think you're right, TYR's are definitely bigger. The Asics are handmade though, so I'm sure every shoe is a little different. I've heard from a couple others that they felt a good amount of toe space in their Asics, especially when compared to Adidas/Nike shoes (including myself).

@sbtraining1769 Год назад

There ade definitely nice things about the asics, the wooden heel is nice. But i think its wide compared to most "weightlifting" shoes which just run narrow like all shoes :/ you're not wrong they are technically wider than most but I can definitely tell the tyr was made with wider toe box. I've been wearing 5 fingers for years at this point so my feet are much to wide for anything else, felt crammed atleast my toes in the 727

@Denali_Rebel Год назад

I honestly didn’t know anybody would care at all what their lifting shoes looked like. What they look like on the outside doesn’t even factor in for me when it comes to lifting shoes.

@trainershatehim Год назад

In that case, all you have to worry about is the function of the shoes, which is probably for the best. Everyone has their preferences.

@deadlift0425 Год назад

Still waiting for a shoe to beat my Nike Romaelo 2s! Have owned 2004 adistars, adipowers 1st generation, and also own a pair of reebok legacy lifter 2s(close but prefer the two strap design of the rom 2). Might try the Anta 2.0s if they ever go on sale!

@trainershatehim Год назад

If you've found your "tried and true", then you're doing better than most! Anta 2's look pretty pricey, so I may do the same thing.

@kylejensen461 Год назад

I know you said at the end of this video you would continue to wear the Rom 4's--but in the last 6 months have you worn these at all? I would love to hear an update. I would also love to hear you review the Anta 2's :D.

@trainershatehim Год назад

I have not trained in them at all after the time of this video - I've just been so comfortable with my Rom's, I haven't felt the urge to switch. As for the Anta 2's, I'd LOVE to review them because I loved the 1's, but they're pretty damn pricey and I think the single colorway is pretty ugly. Perhaps down the line if more colorways drop.

@stephensiswandi5784 Год назад

Just watched your video and really enjoy your honest review. Been doing lifting for about 2yrs and I decide to buy lifting shoes. Could you please help me to decide: 1. Since it's my first lifting shoes, is TYR suitable for me? 2. My Vans' size is perfect at 42.5, does TYR has to be sized up or just the same size?

@trainershatehim Год назад

I appreciate your comment! I personally think the TYR shoes are perfect entry-level lifters. They get the job done and are relatively comfortable. That's all you need in a lifter. In terms of sizing, I'm not exactly sure how they would compare to Vans, I haven't worn any in ages. Going with your same size might work just fine, but you should do more research on that before you make your choice.

@abadran8174 Год назад

Great review, Joey! been waiting for it. I cant even look at my Romaleos 4 now. I feel the cracking feeling of rolling internal tissue in my small tow. Rom4 for me are a very upsetting buy. I've been lifting with the TYR for arounf 2 weeks now and they are much better than Rom4 and I'd say even better than Romaleos2. I got the Black/gold which blacks out the Big logo and makes it classy. the SquatU logo is small enough to tolerate :).

@trainershatehim Год назад

I appreciate it! I definitely understand how you feel about the Roms. At first I really hated them, they had to grow on me over time and now I find it hard to go without their stability in lifts. I'm glad you're enjoying the TYRs too - hopefully they're a shoe you can enjoy long term, I feel like they're going to be well-liked by the community.

@bio_man 8 месяцев назад

What do you think about UA reign lifter?

@airplaneass Год назад

Hi! How does the toe box compare to something like the Reebok Legacy Lifter 2’s, or the Anta 1.0/2.0? Thank you in advance!

@trainershatehim Год назад

I gave the Antas another wear so I could help answer for you: Their toe box comes to a point like most other Weightlifting shoes, BUT, the Antas are pretty damn wide, so the "back" of the toe box feels relatively wide before it tapers off at the toes. Comparing them next to the TYR's, the TYR's had a clearly wider toe box overall. I think both shoes are excellent for general comfort and fit. For the Legacy 2's, I actually no longer have a pair I can do a comparison with. From what I remember, the shoes are pretty neutral in width and the toe box tapers off like most other shoes.

@al2gaiden Год назад

Hi, Would you recommend these to improve/help deeps squats? I cant naturally deep squat due to flexibility so I have to use a pair of 5 libs discs to elevate my hills if I want to deep squat. The discs are around 1.5cm thick so I wonder what heel to toe elevation should I be looking for in squatting shoes. Sadly, shoes like these arent easy to find locally in order to give it a try so I have to blind order online instead.

@trainershatehim Год назад

So these are a more typical heel height for Weightlifting shoes. The Rogue website says these have a 21mm (or 2.1cm) effective heel height. These should definitely help in your case. There are a few lower/higher options depending on what you want, but most lifters will be around 2cm.

@TheTitaniumAce Год назад

Do you plan on reviewing the fast lift 380 by inov-8? I know it says it has a wider toe box and is light. But I'm curious what an experienced weightlifters POV on it

@trainershatehim Год назад

I do not, unless they somehow landed at my doorstep for free. Hearing from other lifters who have used Inov8s, I've heard they absolutely are light but have also heard the generalized statement "they're not that good". So, I'm not so sure.

How light are they? I'm a bit used to the heavier shoe. How would you say they compare to the Velaasa or the Romaleos?

@trainershatehim Год назад

Just weighed them now that you asked, The TYRs are definitely a medium weight lifter, about 17 ounces. Rom 4's are almost exactly the same as the TYRs, the Velaasas are a smidge heavier at 18 ounces, and I don't have any Rom 2's but the Antas were significantly heavier than all of them at 22 ounces.

@booleann___ 11 месяцев назад

Why did you stop wearing the Asics? I just got a pair and they feel absolutely amazing. Is it just me or does the heel feel super high on the Asics even though its the normal .75"?

@trainershatehim 11 месяцев назад

I loved the Asics, but ultimately gave them up to wear shoes I thought looked better, especially with the red fading. They're easily one of the best pairs of lifters ever though, no question. And no, I felt the same usual heel height, but since they're handmade perhaps yours are slightly different?

@booleann___ 11 месяцев назад

@@trainershatehim Gotcha. I have the white leather ones, so I don't think I will experience the same fading that you did--but who knows, only time will tell! And yeah maybe they are higher? I was also theorizing that maybe the heel-to-toe and is steeper than my other shoes (Anta 2's for example), so that maybe makes them feel higher as well. All I know is, as a tall/long limbed lifter I need all the help I can get, and my bottom position feels the best in the Asics.

@trainershatehim 11 месяцев назад

Oh yes, I'm sure you can make the whites work with more outfits too (if you care about that sort of thing). Perhaps the heel-to-toe is different, at least you've found the right shoes for you, no more wasting money >.>

@quincy189 Год назад

because of the toe box room should I get a size down? I normally wear size 8-9 and 9 when usually the shoe is not wide and has narrow shoe. It's almost impossible to find wide shoes for my flat wide feet so I normally wear 9. How tall are you btw? Just depending if I should get 8, 8.5 or 9

@trainershatehim Год назад

I don’t think you should size down. I always go with my normal shoe size (8) in training shoes AND Weightlifting shoes. These were more comfortable because of the little extra width and toe room, but when I first put them on they were still tight around the balls of the feet. Loosening the laces and training in them for a day fixed the issue. I would go with your most normal size for these. 8-9 is a big range but I think 8 would be too tight for you if you’re used to 9. I’m 5’6” btw.
