Boots for Squats?

[jesse_01]

I rock stocking feet.

never seen a record setting squat done barefoot, but I'm sure all you good bros know wtf you're doing.

Personally, I would go with a flat soled shoe. Chuck Taylors are great for this. I have a couple pairs of Vans shoes that have flat soles that I like too.

I know b fold the truth has an opinion on this matter. This thread has been done to death btw.

I squat in leggings and crocs.

Actually......... I lied. I don't squat

 

[ExtraMile]

I squat in either chucks or my regular trainers (which have a flat sole)

 

[Crocodome]

chucks.... with 10lb plates under each heel if my calves/shins aren't cooperating.

Thanks for all the replies. I'll look into the boots mentioned as well as the Chuck Taylors. Can I get the Chucks from any shoe store online or is there a particular place I should go?

CEO, where is the difference between barefoot and flat soled shoes?
