"Order at least a half size up! As many reviewers have stated and as the product page suggests, order a size up. For me a half size was just perfect. Shoes feel nice. Much better than setting up wedges or putting heels on weight plates and trying to get them equally spaced. The feeling of not having think about that makes these shoes a worthwhile investment."
"My first pair of lifting shoes. These have really changed how im lifting. By proviing me a solid foundation for pushig through and staying grounded. Im normally an 8. 5W and followed the advice to size up to 9. Tad long but fits great witout putting pressure on the side of my foot. I wish it was wider so i didnt have to have a longer shoe but still manageable"
"I wish i would have bought these a long time ago. Squatting with good position is so much easier now. The heel is just high enough to keep the chest high while in the hole of the squat, and the wide toe box allows my feet to spread naturally while the whole foot feels stable in the movement."
"Perfect fit. Solid shoe. I use to do all barefoot movements but with these I can’t tell a difference. Highly recommended."
"I have a problem with my heels lifting off when doing squats. These shoes help me drive with my heels to lift the weight. Are they comfortable shoes? Honestly not really. They are built like a tank made to lift weight. They hug your feet tighter than any shoe I have worn but they fit. I wear a 12 extra wide or an 13 if no wider sizes are available and I ordered a 13 so you may want to size up one to get a good fit. I wish more stores carried these! If you can try them on before buying, you should!"
"I was a little concerned that this wouldn’t fit because the 2s don’t offer wide sizes, but they fit perfectly. Very stable and good material, would highly recommend."
