    Personal preference for me is good work boots or barefoot. Hope it helps

    I like the feel of Vibram 5 finger shoes when deadlifting. Anything else feels weird.

    converse chuck taylors work fine
  • Merrill Vapor Gloves. Basically vibram five finger shoes but people won’t stare at you with righteous indignation because it’s a normal wide toe box

    I’m fine with chucks. Sometimes I’ll use Nike Blazers or SBs. I’d used deadlift slippers if I didn’t pull sumo.
  • I use reebok nano 8s they areny specifically deadlift shoes but they’re pretty flat. And good for my wide feet.

    I second indoor soccer shoes.

    On days that I only deadlift, that’s what I wear. On days that I squat first, I’ll have on weightlifting shoes which changes the leverage with the added heel height. Hasnt affected my lifts so far
