    just wondering has anyone ever tried lifting in these. I got a pair there that where on sale cause they looked nice, but recently thought they could be good for squatting cause of the elvevated metal heel.

    Dunno about those ones, but i hae squatted in pumas before, and think they aren't as good as your chuckers. the sole is a bit wierd, with the skinny bit in the middle.

    My Internets is being a penis so i can't see the pic. But, in my opinion, when squatting you want the flattest most uncoushioned sole available. My mate squats i his bare feet :eek: Always gets in trouble in the gym for doing it :cool:

    A slight heel is actually pretty perfect for squatting...
