Great lifting shoes for the price!
I was in the market for shoes to lift in, and I came across this pair! They're excellent for my intended purpose! Even though they're "crossfit" shoes, I would really only use them for lifts where you need a flat, stable shoe. The arch support is somewhat lacking on these shoes, and I will continue to use my running shoes for all my other training.I'm normally a size 6.5 or 7 because I have wide feet. Based on the amazon fit recommendation, I went with the 6.5, and I'm very glad I did. These shoes have a wide toe box, which is perfect for my feet. Keep in mind, even if you don't have particularly wide feet, a wider toe box is good for maintaining balance, especially while lifting.I went with the cheapest color available in my size (they were about $30), and turns out they're pretty cute!

Get yourself a pair!
I got size 6.5 and fit perfectly snug which is how I like it. I own reebok lifter shoes that was a size 7 which fit decently with just a little bit of extra room in toe area. I also have nano 2.0 size 6.5 (a little too snug in toe area for me) and size 7 (comfortable fit) and nano 4.0 size 6.5 (perfect fit). If you own nano 4.0s, getting the same size with these should be a good fit. If your nano 4.0s are bit too snug, you may consider getting .5 size bigger. This shoe goes from wide (toe area) to narrow. They feel better than my converse in comfort wise. I like the grip these offer. These are good for serious lifting. I would recommend them to anyone who's thinking about getting a pair! Not bad pricing either :)

Comfortable CrossFit shoe
These shoes are nice and wide, especially in the toe box area. I normally wear a women's size 9 wide, I ordered a 9.5 in these and the fit is spot on. At first there were a few rough spots on the inside, but as these are leather, they quickly softened, stretched, and formed to fit my feet.I've been using them for two months and am happy with how comfortable they are. Definitely not a running shoe, but perfect for CrossFit. I intend to purchase another pair when these are worn out.

Good Shoe for Lifting
This is a good shoe for lifting as it is very flat, and is very stiff to give good support for balance during deadlifts, squats, lunges.The downsides are:-The back of the shoe is very stiff and occasionally digs into my heels-Shoe has a strange sour rubber offgassing odor that I can't seem to get rid of despite cleaning/deodorizing-Not very pretty - it's wide at the top and narrow at the back so it kind of looks like clown shoes - not a shoe you'd want to wear around other than for the purposes of lifting onlyOverall, the shoe fulfills its purpose and for the price, it's not bad. I will say that my lifts have improved because of having the proper footwear!

Great deadlifting and squat shoe!
These shoes are very, very solid. I've been deadlifting in old Nike's with a ton of that cushion material on the bottom which wasn't ideal. I chose these over basic Chucks because I got a great deal on here ($15! Whaaaaat) and liked the stability zone feature. Sure they look a little funny at the front but overall it's a great shoe and looks like it will last for a long while. Absolutely recommend if you're in need of a good flat powerlifting shoe.

Super comfy shoe
Super comfy shoe, but they do look pretty goofy because they are wider towards the toe. I would not recommend to people with really bony ankles because the shoe kind of grinds on the bottom of the ankle bone. Hoping after they get broke in that it will not be as noticeable. Great shoe for lifting in.

Love Them
I love these. I was living in my nano's, now I have a really cute alternative and am not wearing out my workout shoes. Especially since I got these for 30 bucks versus 100 and up for the nano. I can not wear vans b/c they are too narrow, so i really like this option.These fit the same as my nano's no arch support to speak of and wide toe box, maybe a little lower on the ankle, I live in mismatched socks and when I wear my nano's I don't notice them as much as I do when I wear these. The front is a suede type material and the back is canvas.I bought the same size as I get in the nano. They fit perfect out of the box, no issues with blistering or anything. Walked around in them for hours and had no problems.
