Shoes used for weightlifting need to give you the stability that you need along with the right amount of cushioning. It is tempting to attempt powerlifting in your regular sneakers, however, using specialized footwear will help you get better results and maximize your efforts.
Metcons have a wide heel and are very stable. They are great shoes for powerlifting as they have a rubber sole and they give you great traction. The bottom of the shoe is flat and as such is great for deep squats.
