Squat Shoes - Topic

Good question. I was reading into this earlier. I have walking shoes I use with my inserts for my arches. I better fitting shoe with a flat sole would be nice.

High top converse.

I've thought about using low top Chuck Taylor's for ankle stability. Cheap and effective.

I like to wear my mom's heels so my calves look good doing the squats. :P

If you have a reebok outlet store near you go with the cross fit lite tr's and take out the insole. They're an upgraded chuck Taylor. And look way better too!

Thanks. I'll look for one in the area. There's a big outlet mall in San Marcos.

Almost all the 83kg lifters at IPF wore flat soles and still hit depth, those fuckers..

Everyone that participates in weighlifting in the Olympics has a heel.
