A good fit for Strength sessions using a raised-heel lifting shoe
- Laces and an instep strap provide two points of fit adjustment.
- The polyurethane upper and mesh lining provide a covered upper with a textile inner surface.
- The raised heel gives a different lifting position from flat deadlift footwear.
The raised, lifting-focused shape is less versatile for running and jumping than a mixed-training shoe.
