What kind of shoes do you squat/deadlift in?

[b fold the truth]

depend show you squat, most people here squat power lifter style where you want a flat base

if you front squat and oly squat, you don't want ankle support - you need max ankle motion.
An IMO ankle support is a waste of time anyway - never helped stopped sprained ankles so why would it help you when your squating?

I pretty much agree...and I consider the High Bar Squat to be an OL move...and I use my OL shoes for high bar squats.

the chucks defianatly run big, i usually wear 15-16 in shoes, but in chucks i wear a 13.

I use Chucks also. I have a 9.5 in them, but wear a 10.5 in everything else. I've got the all white ugly ones, lol. It's all the store had. They do help alot for me when squating. With regular shoes, my feet want to roll over with my wide stance, but with Chucks, they don't. Made a world of difference.
