Customer Reviews adidas Adipower Weightlifting II

I have good hopes for this shoe. Style-wise, it is a miss as it feels like a really cheap knock-off of a weightlifting shoe compared to other recent adidas lifters. I bought the white shoes and find that the material is lightweight, flexible, and breathable. This is nice, but there is a bit of neon yellow lining to the shoe that shows through to the outside. This coloring shows up as almost a urine coloring and it appears discolored. This is probably not a big deal on the black shoes, but for the white ones... it is not great. I have tried them out in the gym and look forward to putting loads of weightlifting on these shoes in the coming months. Hopefully they make up for their lack of style with stable performance on the weightlifting platform.

Unfortunately as stable as these are and I'm sure would work great for lifting, they are incredibly narrow in the toe box. They have a pointy toe box which puts a lot of pressure on your big toe and pushes it towards the other toes.

Great lifting shoes, go true to size or maybe even half a size down if you have skinny/narrow feet, but these work great.
