[The Deadlifting Dog]

During the meet, do you have to wear the same shoes in all 3 lifts? Like, could you wear Chucks to squat and boat slippers to deadllift?

I'm just using Chucks as an example, I'm sure there are better choices and probably specialized shoes.

You can wear different shoes for each lift.
Some actually wear deadlifting slippers.
(wrestling shoes with the cushion pad ripped out are just as low to the ground...)

Wrestling shoes were great for me back in the day. I also had a pair of Tom Platz squat shoes and they were awesome. Always surprised me how much of a difference they made when squatting heavy. I have not been able to find them after moving years ago. Pisses me off as I can't believe I'd get rid of them....
