    Powerlifting Shoes, Weightlifting Shoes, and General Lifting Shoes

    We have an extensive selection of some of the best powerlifting shoes on the market. The majority of our shoes for strength training are extremely lightweight which makes them convenient to travel with and pack in a gym bag. We also offer some of the best budget weightlifting shoes, which are affordable yet sturdy, providing stability and support for weightlifters.

    We carry a full range of TYR Squat Shoes, TYR L1 Lifters, TYR Drop Zero Lifters, and TYR CXT 1 Trainers for cross-training. The TYR L1 Lifters and TYR Drop Zero Lifters feature an anatomical toe box that provides a roomier fit for wide feet and allows toes to splay.

    As well we have our Notorious Lift Deadlift Slippers designed for conventional deadlift as well as sumo deadlift. Plus we have recently brought in our own line of Inner Strength Squat Shoe and Deadlift Shoe.

    These shoes all feature great grip on their soles to keep you firmly in place as you lift and squat, and many come with an elevated heel to assist with achieving proper squat positioning. The heel to toe drop in these shoes affects ankle mobility, squat depth, and spinal positioning during lifts.

    We offer both flat and heeled strength training shoes to provide options for all lifter’s needs. Many also feature a metatarsal strap that helps to lock your foot securely in place stopping any foot movement inside the shoe. Our high quality weight lifting shoes are a great addition to your gym bag.

    FAQs

    Regular sneakers have soft foam and a rounded sole that can squish and shift when you brace and push heavy weight, so your feet feel less planted on the platform. Inner Strength Products' powerlifting shoes use a firm base and secure uppers (often straps) so you can drive through the floor, keep your setup consistent, and avoid that wobbly feeling during squats and deadlifts.

    Flat or zero-drop lifters put your whole foot at one height, which many lifters like for deadlifts and sumo pulls, because you start a bit closer to the floor. Heeled lifters add height under the heel, helping your knees move forward and helping you keep a more upright torso in the squat so you hit depth without your heels popping up, and our powerlifting footwear covers both.

    If your ankles feel tight at the bottom of a squat, a heeled shoe (around 0.75 inches or higher) can help you get your knees forward and keep your balance over midfoot. If you low-bar squat, sit back hard, or already have good ankle bend, a flat pair may feel better, so start there and adjust after a few weeks in our powerlifting shoes.
