There are shoes made for weightlifting, which are used by most people for squatting and for snatching and clean&jerking by weightlifters.

Those shoes have a raised heel, to help reach a deeper squat depth without overextending on your ankles and also a solid sole that does not compress under any liftable weight.

Good thing about those shoes is that you buy them once and can keep for an indefinite amount of time, since you only wear them in the gym and they don't get used up that fast.

Some entry level shoes:

  • Do wins
  • Adidas powerlifts

    Higher quality (wouldn't buy those unless you do weightlifting (snatch, clean&jerk) on a high level:

  • Adidas Adipower
  • Nike Romaleos

    I personally use Adidas powerlifts v1, had them for over 5 years, no complaints.

    Keep in mind that deadlifting is best done on flat soles or barefoot, to minimize distance between the foot and the floor, so I wouldn't advice deadlifting in those, but for squatting, front squatting, OHP'ing, cleaning and snatching they're perfect. For bench press it doesn't matter.

    Also, if you don't do high bar / front squats and/or snatches/c&s and instead train a low bar (powerlifting type) squats then flat sole chucks or whatever, like mentioned by the other commenter, are good enough. Honestly though, once I tried squatting in them I'm not going back.

Gotta be my Adidas lifting shoes. They're amazing to squat in and I love them for back and other carrying/heavy load type says because of their level of support.

They're Adidas Powerlift Trainers. They've got a hard sole with just a bit of elevation at the heel. Feels pretty solid.

What's wrong with them?
