I have at least a D-width foot and have owned these for a couple years now. Although I've liked Adidas as a brand for many years, I basically cannot wear their shoes (of any style) because they run too narrow for me. I took a chance on these simply because my 10-year-old Reebok WL shoes were starting to fall apart and the options were so limited at that time. I have to wear the thinnest athletic socks I could find to get them on my feet — no way I can wear my usual thicker ones — but make no mistake, once on your feet they are awesome. Super stable and the sole has just the right amount of stick to it. My old Reeboks are pretty good shoes, with full leather uppers and real wooden soles, but these are noticeably superior. I consider them the Cadillac (or BMW/Mercedes) of WL shoes.

It's in the works. I've been wearing the AdiPower Weightlifting shoe to the gym for almost a month just to properly test them out. Review should be up in a few days.

ok, so tomorrow is payday, which means that i am getting a pair of weightlifting shoes. price isn't too much of a problem as long as i am not getting junk.

i'm wondering which you would suggest, the adistar or the adipower?

The shooting shoe does not have the wooden heel… It's made out of some sort of compressible material, making it useless for weightlifting. It's also missing the velco straps. I thought the shooting shoe looked nicer, but the heel is not suitable for weightlifting (although the heel is definitely better then what you'll find on most cross training shoes these days).

I've been unable to find a good answer to this one. They look identical and materials appear to be the same. I would guess if anything the heel and mid-sole may differ but it doesn't look like it from the photos of the adidas shooting shoe.

What exactly is the difference between the shooting shoe and the lifting shoe? I accidentally got the shooting shoes, and was wondering if I should just keep them, or send them back.
