Durability of the shoes is not bad. No major problems, I had them for 2 years now. Sizing down half a size from your normal running shoes should be considered, I have the same issue in the toe box area.

@@evagenesiz7802 If you normal shoe (My size was 10) feels little loose or has some space that your toes can move, go with a half (Extra room) or full (No extra room) size down. I recommend 6.5 if it does not fit right, send it back and get a full size down. DoWins has a large margin for error in terms of the sizing of their shoes.

They do recommend going a half size down from your running shoe size on their Rogue fitness product page.

@@redhawkmillenium I bought these shoes long before Rogue gave any recommendations. :(

Instead of triple knotting, what I do is lay the tie ,down the length of the laces,and secure it with the Velcro straps.

How is it close to two years after the review?

Bumping this comment.

Had the original ones (I believe this is the second iteration) for 6 years and they’re STILL going strong. They’re durable as fuck esp for the price. Use mostly for powerlifting, but had a short stint with oly and lots of cross training and plyometrics. Only true concern is the sort of vinyk material lining the inside of the shoe has started to peel this year, but no functional harm. I would pick these over a lot of the higher end shoes on the market rn.

Are they good for newbies on weightlifting shoes? I mainly want them for my squats as I do high bar and prioritize quad development

How’d they turn out

I've had mine for 3 years, went a full size down. Definitely some hot spots in the toes when training for 1 - 1.5 hours. Zero ventilation, but that's expected from the vinyl/synthetic leather. Construction has been great, no issues thus far, I would buy these again and again. When I'm trying to hit a max lift (snatch/C & J) I'll wear them, otherwise I stick with metcon 3's or NB minimus... Thankfully mobility isn't an issue for me. Great videos by the way :)

I've heard some say that it's impossible to keep both your toe and heel on the floor at the same time, did you have that problem as well?

What does anyone think of the Dowin classic lifters? They seem a little lighter-duty than the ones here, and they have a stack leather heel instead. Anyone have an opinion?

Just got my pair they feel really solid

Have they improved these shoes since you did this review and do you still recommend them? Thanks

I love this shoe. Just a tip for perfect fit, get the smaller size if you're inbetween two sizes i.e. you're in between 42-43, grab the 42.

I just got some and I sized down .5 like they suggest and my big toe almost touches and I can’t splay my toes. I’m used to wearing wide toe Adidas so maybe that’s why I feel they are too tight. Are they supposed to fit tighter than cross trainers? Do they expand or break in at all? Thanks

Just wanna be clear, you mentioned that it has a TPU heel, but on Rogue’s website it says hard plastic. I’m assuming it’s the same? Thanks

How did they turn out

I just got mine. I have such a hard time finding wide shoes that aren't running shoes. I'm debating on keeping them or sending them back. They are pretty tight width wise for me, but not sure if breaking them in will help.

How have they broken in?

Are these wider than the do-win classic lifter ?

After 18 months, my dowin begin peel off, the tpu on the heel, the base under the lower metatarsal strap, the side... basically everything under the shoes is fall off.. A Glue can fix it so i can continue to squat..

Are they good for squats?

Just ordered a pair for powerlifting. Can’t wait to try em.

How are they

Would anyone recommend going a half size down as it says on the website and in this video?

Yo tengo un par durante 14 años y todavía siguen funcionales

Drinking game: take a shot every time he says "point seven five TPU heel"

If I normally wear EU38, is it recommended to get it in EU37? Planning to get one but worried about the sizing.

Note, I'm not the most familiar with EU sizes, but I would say yes. This shoe has a ton of room in the toe, so going a .5-1 size down probably isn't the biggest deal! - Jake

Honestly, yeah man. These are going to last a long time if you take care of them, so while the shoes may be only used for two lifts and might seem excessive they'll last and you'll always have a pair of lifters on hand if you ever feel like playing around with Olympic lifts! - Jake
