What type of shoes do you wear?

[NC600cbr]

hey guys,

So what kind of shoes do you guys go with.

When I lift I usually just use me some standard Nike's or anything. I see a lot of guys in puma's or flatter shoes. Or even in old wrastlin shoes.

Think there is any benefit? I think I prefer the extra padding.

[TheBerryhillMonster]

I wear some asics wrestling shoes when I lift. I feel more connected to the ground for squats and whatnot.

[Jenseno9]

u really shouldn't lift in padded shoes. less cushioning the better

[collar]

asics.

[POPS]

sauconys. I like them because theyre light and perfect for running cause I do pwo cardio. I think bringing 2 sets of gym shoes to the gym would be pointless and $$$

[elitepeptides]

I wear adidas running shoes with those 50 dollar dr. Scholls inserts that are specifically engineered for your feet. I wear running shoes because I run after just about every workout.

[operationgetbig]

for days when i squat or deadlift i use any flat shoe. converse or kswiss...as long as theyre flat and not running shoes.

[PC650]

vans..vans..vans......

Nike Free

[NC600cbr]

Yeah I was thinking of trying a flatter shoe for leg days, and just regular shoes for the rest of it.

How are those Nike Free's Diablo? Maybe i'll try a pair of those.

Hey NC, they are very comfy, and ur whole foot is flat on the ground, it doesnt have a heel, so i enjoy them, they arent made for running really, but light as a feather. I enjoy them.

I wear my day to day shoe, a worn out old asics running shoe. In the summer time I wore sandals a few times. IMHO shoe choice is a bit obsessive.

[NC600cbr]

thenextcutler - not sure how its obsessive.. ?

I had a neuroma in my foot at one point a few years ago, and let me tell you, you get a shot of cortizone and few b12 shots in the bottom of your foot and you might start putting some consideration into your footwear too!

Diablo - I think i'm going to give those a shot. If I hate them I'm sending you an invoice.

[thenextcutler]

IMHO

certainly doesn't sound obssessive in your specific case... maybe I read too quickly but I didn't see anything about the neuroma in earlier posts, my bad

Diablo - I think i'm going to give those a shot. If I hate them I'm sending you an invoice.

I'll get in on that action!

[NC600cbr]

Wasn't being aggressive amigo - just sayin! Although I do get a kick out of the guys that match their shoes and complete gym attire, guido style.

I just started taking my shoes of for some things and doing them sock footed.
So far so good, but they will complain I am sure.

[Bulkn]

I use nike free 5.0 they weigh 270g each. Seeing them new ones make me want to upgrade!

[NC600cbr]

Been lifting in these Nike Free's for about two weeks now. I'm a big fan.

Diablo - you will not be receiving an invoice. (unless of course thenextcutler you want to lie and we can bill Diablo)

[AdverageJoe]

I do my cardio with asics and my lifting with my chuck taylors

[-Ender-]

Wescos or Danners.

[ottomaddox]

Nike+

[Kibble]

Moccasins(house slippers), unless it is leg day. On leg day I wear K-Swiss

[LionsGate]

Oof ! not fun at all. I never realized how sensitive your feet really are until some crazy doctor was stabbing me in the foot with what seemed like a 4 inch needle. haha

[KimboHalfSlice]

I train barefoot (the gyms in SE Asia don't give a fu*k).

I also go running barefoot. People who run barefoot have far less chance of injury.
