Wei-Rui Warrior Weightlifting Shoe

WLShoes — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 06:13:12 +0000

The Wei-Rui Warrior is a sub $100 weightlifting shoe for those that recognize they need a solid pair of shoes for lifting, but don't want to break the bank. A relatively unknown brand, Wei-Rui has been around for awhile and is the actual manufacturer of the BAF lifting shoes. In our opinion, these are the best value in weightlifting shoes currently on the market.

Adidas AdiPower Weightlifting Shoe

WLShoes — Sat, 10 Mar 2012 21:23:40 +0000

Released in January 2012, the AdiPower Weightlift is the newest high-end Olympic lifting shoe by Adidas. It replaces the former AdiStar model released in 2008 and once again carries the highest price tag of all the Oly shoes on the market. This begs the question, are these shoes worth the cost?

Adidas PowerLift Trainer

WLShoes — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 22:19:33 +0000

A quality made, budget friendly power lifting shoe for the beginning to intermediate weight lifter. The PowerLift Trainer Shoe has been designed around the harder to find Power Perfect 2 design and is an excellent choice for the more casual weightlifters. Featuring a lightweight feel, comfortable sneaker-like fit and attractive price of $90, this shoe is likely to become a big hit with the many lifters.

Reebok CrossFit Oly Weightlifting Shoe

WLShoes — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 22:51:57 +0000

Undoubtedly the most anticipated shoe released in 2011, the Reebok CrossFit Oly is designed to be the first ever multi functional weightlifting shoe. We put this Olympic lifting shoe to the test and see if it can really replace all those dirty, smelly pairs of trainers and Oly shoes in one fell swoop.

Reebok Crossfit Nano U-Form Shoes

Nike's flagship Olympic weightlifting shoe intended to compete directly with the Adidas AdiStar shoes, the Romaleo is a high-end shoe for the serious weight lifter. Known for their wider toe box, excellent durability and appearance in the 2008 Summer Olympics.

Risto Sports Series 2 Shoe

WLShoes — Sun, 28 Nov 2010 01:12:25 +0000

A hand-made Olympic weightlifting shoe designed for the serious lifter, featuring a real wood heel and quality leather. The Series 2 is Risto Sports offering for the 2011 year and sets the bar for quality, style and functionality within the weightlifting shoe world. This new model boasts some great upgrades and still has (almost) all the features we loved about the series 1 model. This shoe is already receiving praise from the crossfit and weightlifting communities.

Wei-Rui Maestro Weightlifting Shoes

WLShoes — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 22:38:07 +0000

Finally! A pair of weightlifting shoes for under $100 bucks that don't suck! This "cheap weightlifting shoe" actually doesn't look or feel cheap at all. Features include a set .75" heel and all leather construction with a sneaker-like fit. The Wei-Rui Weightlifting shoes are hands down the best weightlifting shoe under the $100 mark.

Risto Sports Olympic Weightlifting Shoe

WLShoes — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 18:12:21 +0000

The 2010 winner of our all-around best Olympic weight lifting shoe, the Risto Sports Olympic Lifting Shoe is almost all you could ask for in a shoe. The Ristos meet all the requirements of a good weightlifting shoe having a solid grain leather exterior, an extra padded insole, sturdy molded leather interior, double stitching and a solid wood heel that is proportional to the size of the shoe.

Otomix Extreme Trainer Shoe

WLShoes — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 19:42:27 +0000

The Otomix Extreme Trainer Pro Shoe is the latest in style and design from this popular manufacturer. The trainer is, as the name would imply, more of a training shoe then an Olympic lifting style shoe. The high top design and zero-height sole make it great for all types of lifting including those lifts that you would rather not have a heeled shoe such as deadlifts.

Otomix Stingray Escape Shoe

WLShoes — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 18:01:03 +0000

Marketed as an MMA shoe, the Otomix Stingray is actually a multi-purpose high-top suitable for use as a power lifting shoe, wrestling shoe and various other sports. I actually have a few friends that wear these shoes when racing cars because they are lightweight and thin enough to "feel" the pedals below you.

Adidas AdiStar Weightlifting Shoes

WLShoes — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 17:21:04 +0000

The model boasts several upgrades and improvements over the older and cheaper Ironwork models.
