Picked these guys up at Marshall’s in Lake Charles for $24.00 today. Solid deal on a decent pair of lifters. $80 on Amazon so just passing the info along. Had a few pairs left in case anyone lives in the area. They’re ugly but was a good deal.

Are those the predecessor to the powerlift?

That looks like a tall heel and angle for lifting.

I just did some cursory research, since I usually lift in Chucks.
1. Heel lifts help you stay more upright during the squat and prevent a valgus collapse caused by imbalances in the lower body musculature.
2. Olympic shoes could help you early on in your squatting career, but they could hinder performance later.
3. The majority of record-holding powerlifters don't wear Olympic shoes.
4. If you have a quad dominant squat with a narrow stance, or have hypertrophy-oriented goals, Olympic squat shoes may be right for you.
5. If you have a hip dominant squat with a medium to wide stance and strength-oriented goals, Chuck Taylors may be your best choice.
Take it for what it’s worth. Your mileage may very.
