    Depends on what I’m doing.

    For squats I still have my years old pair of Romaleo 2s. For everything else, Chuck Taylors. Considering abandoning the Chucks though, because my goddamn feet are getting wider with TRT and cycles, and I’ve never seen a wide fit pair.

    Same. It depends. I used to use Chuck's
    I love my nike romaleos 2, but w the raised heal and stiff sole, it makes doing some other exercises hard
    I recently got new balance minimus prevail. They're crosstrainers so they work well for anything. They have pretty much been the only thing I wear to the gym these days

    Nike romaleos 2 for everything. Having a flat stable platform I feel is essential. I'm not even moving any type of real weight at this time, but I feel more planted in the romaleos. I also have ankle that aren't very flexible so I cant go to full depth with a squat unless there is something under my heal.

    This. They're flat enough to be great for lifting but not too flat. Also extremely durable.

    I have some adidas Powerlift's. They're nice, no regrets.

    Mostly people use adidas for work out, I use it to, it's much better than others,
    but it's totally depends on you, what you feel in comfortable.
