vibram 5 finger.....
google it.
it's molded and made to mimick as close to going barefoot as possible.

If you were ever to wear those shoes to a contest I have this feeling you would probably never hear the end of it...

I gotta say I like the confidence... but dont you think if they were that great you would see top contenders wearing them already. It just isn't going to happen. Chuck Taylors, Wrestling shoes, deadlift slippers are the way to go. For an all around shoe I prefer Chuck's. But hey if you want to get a good laugh I would go ahead and go for it.

the safe shoes cost about a $120-140 plus. they are ugly as fcuk and heavy like a boot. you cant wear them anywhere else but to lift. even in the gym, they look slightly odd. my take. a pair of doc martin boots cost about $80-$100 bucks. they mold to your feet, last forever, have a heal, weight about the same as the safe shoes and you can where them anywhere. just my $.02.

the addidas are light, dont look that bad, but they are more pricey than the safe shoes. if i was real serious about single ply lifting or olympic lifting for a contest i would get them. if i never planned to compete, and was just going to train, i would go with the doc martins
