kcrossDeadlift Shoes Men Women

I had never heard of weightlifting shoes until I saw these. I do workout with weights but I wear regular track shoes. I decided to try these out in my workout today and I am still wearing them. Usually when I return home after my workouts I remove my gym shoes and slip into my house shoes. They are so comfortable that I have not bothered removing them after 5 1/2 hours of having them on. They did not slip or skid at all while I worked out in them. I have two types of flooring in my home, hardwood and marble. They are still non-slip, but on the marble floor they do squeak. Not annoyingly but definitely noticeable. Their purpose isn't for walking on marble flooring so that does not reduce any rating of them. I ordered them in my regular shoe size 7 and when I first tried them on I wondered if I should have sized up half a size. They didn't feel tight but my big toes were right at the top of the shoes. After having them on for a while I believe they have stretched some because now my toes are not hitting the top of them. Oh yes. There was a lady at the gym who inquired about what kind of shoe I was wearing and said that she liked them. I showed her the manufacturers tag on them and told her that I ordered them from Amazon. These shoes are comfortable keepers.

The headline pretty much sums it up. These are just what you see...some medium weight canvas, a molded rubber sole, and a velcro strap. They're not the most comfortable shoe in the world and I could feel the rubber of the sole around the edges where it seamed with the upper. But for what they are--dedicated zero-drop gym shoes for lifting, they're serviceable. I don't know if they're worth the cost considering the simplicity of them.

All in all, I'm very impressed with these weightlifting shoes. They look great, honestly. I've even considered wearing them out of the house, places other than the gym. I really do like the aesthetic in white. It looks smart. As for their practicality in the gym weightlifting, I have to say I'm quite pleased. They fit true to size and have a phenomenal grip on the foot. And I like how the soles are extended to the edges to give you extra stability during heavy lifts. Quality is there. No defects in the seams or threads or anything like that. All in all, I would say these shoes are of great value and very useful for weightlifting. If you think you need a dedicated pair of weightlifting shoes. Not something I initially thought I wanted, but now that I've been using them, I'm very glad I have them. It feels a lot better than using my CrossFit sneakers, I'll tell you that much. A lot more stability. So yeah, I would say go ahead and get them if you're interested. I would definitely recommend them.

Good: These look great and are light-weight.Bad: Not too much going wrong with this that would effect most people I think...Ugly: My left foot had some issues with the way the rubber fold up over the side. Kind of hurts my toe joint. It feels ever so slightly tight there and after prolonged usage it hurts pretty bad. I really can't keep using them unfortunately. I don't have that problem with my right foot though. Also this is the first time I've ever had a pair of shoes that hurts me like this.

If you’ve spent the last few minutes deciphering the sizing options and questioning whether they’re for men or women, you’re in good company. Despite the confusion, I ordered based on the provided size chart. My feet measure exactly 28 cm, so I followed the chart’s suggestion and ordered a size 12.5. While my standard size is 10.5 US Men’s, I thought perhaps the listed sizes were for US Women’s, so I trusted the chart. Unfortunately, the shoes are at least 1.5 to 2 sizes larger than necessary. A more appropriate size would likely be 10.5.Several reviews touted these shoes as suitable for various activities and sports, though specifics were lacking. I purchased them specifically for deadlifting and squatting, as my four-year-old Merrell Glove barefoot shoes are wearing out. However, I’m perplexed by the advertising of these shoes as lifting footwear—they offer minimal support. They feel akin to socks with a rigid sole. The single strap intended to secure the foot sits too low. During heavy lifts, the foot slides freely within the shoe, with no support provided to the ankle area. Frankly, deadlifting barefoot would be more safe than using these shoes.
