Size and comfort
I have a 7.5 wide foot. I ordered 7.5 wide. I used the size chart, my foot is just under 9 3/8 inches long. What had me exchange these for an 8 is the front of the shoe.Though the wide is excellent, my foot is 4 inches wide, and has no pinch. The front decorative material across the toe of the shoe does not give. It is somewhat stiff and so my toe rubs on the top of my big toe's nail. Eventually ilthat would cause a problem. The size 8 I received is a great fit all around.The shoe has a supportive arch, more than I have known Adidas to have in the past. It has an excellent stabilizing sole and supports my feet when I sustain one legged stretches or lifts. It stays in place when I do Plyometric (sports related drills) depending on quick stop and push offs laterally.The give in the toe box is lax enough for doing sets of lunges, there is no pinch or binding.Great choice.

Perfect for strength training and lifting! Very stable & comfortable.
I have newly returned to the gym & strength training after several years off. I have been trying to train in my running shoes and felt SO off balance. Duh, I needed the right shoes! I'm SO happy with these Adidas Dropsets! I feel like a tree frog with my feet solidly gripping the ground. Stability, comfort, and they're cute. I currently am working around an achilles injury, and these are very comfortable. Absolutely worth the money!Obviously: these are not walking shoes or running shoes! They are designed specifically to be flat for lifting. I see some comments like "they're not very comfortable walking shoes"... you're correct, and they weren't meant to be. Search for walking shoes if that's what you need :)

Great lifting sneakers
I’m an 8.5 in most sneakers and these are true to size. Love that I feel glued to the floor while I lift in these. The color is fun and they’re very comfortable. Will likely be buying again!

Beautiful & bright - prolly not for squats… higher heal.
These are bright & beautiful. I bought them for the gym for lifting (beginner). They’re supposed to be flat. Maybe drop 3 means not flat? My bad. Reviews were great for squats, planks & more. For me I felt the arch a lot. Usually I want this. I did go with another brand for the gym as my trainer suggested flat shoes. All this to say they are very nice but not for what I need at the gym. One thing I didn’t care for are the shoe laces had no give or stretch. It made me feel that they could break sooner than later. I’m used to a Brook Ghost shoe as they are wide. I think the Ghost’s are a little wider than these. IMO I would stick to the Brooks Ghost for walking. It’s a journey for sure finding the best shoe for your needs. Have fun shopping!! 🏋️♀️🌸🌺

Excellent HIIT sneakers
Excellent HIIT sneakers. Firm heel and flatter surface is great for this type of training. Very comfortable.

Caused blisters in heel
These shoes fit true to size, good for wide feet, and are very cute. I wanted to love these because they seemed so great for weightlifting. Unfortunately, I had to return, which was an easy process. But the heels rub so bad and after just 20 minutes of wearing them and walking around the house it caused a really bad blister to form. Do not recommend at all!

Performance Delivered
I honestly never thought about needing specific shoes for lifting weights. When it was pointed out to me, I took action and bought these shoes. I was amazed at the significant ly noticeable difference in stability! This is huge for preventing injuries. So glad I made this purchase. The fit is true to size. Very comfortable, and roomy toe box. And a great price!
