These Adidas Powerlift 2.0 Weightlifting Shoes are designed with a synthetic leather upper, which provides lightweight and durable support to the foot. The collar, tongue and lining are made from a breathable air mesh, ensuring the wearer has the ability to stay cool, dry and comfortable while working out. The single strap over the instep helps to provide additional rearfoot support, keeping the foot more stable within the shoe. These shoes have been specifically engineered for use during weightlifting activities. The high density die-cut midsole wedge further enhances stability through the foot, while still remaining lightweight. The last is wider, designed to increase the level of comfort for the wearer. The outsole is flat, meaning it covers the maximum floor surface area, allowing the weight of the wearer to be dispersed more evenly.
