Best Weightlifting Shoes 2022: 14 Top Picks for Squats, Powerlifts, and More

The Converse High Top Chuck Taylor sneakers were once the world’s favorite basketball shoe. These days, they’re more often seen as casual footwear, but they’re also a solid weightlifting shoe. The flat rubber sole is grippy, and its minimalist canvas design is lightweight and hugs the foot snugly. They’re great for any lift where you’re transferring weight through your feet, like deadlifts, power squats, or cleans.  They’re also priced affordably, so you don’t have to break the bank to break your lifting records.
