if you're in the market for a pair of premium weightlifting shoes you might be considering the Reebok legacy liftings if you've been lifting seriously for a while you might have thought about getting yourself a pair of weightlifting shoes to help you with your stability while do you even need weightlifting shoes or the legacy lifters even worth the 200 on the price tag I'll tell you you can pick up the Reebok legacy lifters directly from Reebok for one $99.99 with free shipping you can get them either in black and gold or black and white link to pick these up are in the description below okay look about myself first I've been squatted with my adidas a decal for the past three or four years I personally like doing a high bar beltless ass to grass squat with knee sleeves and when it comes to delos I prefer to do the bare foot orient juts with that out of the way let's get started with the review first off I want to point out how incredibly heavy these guys are the Reebok legacy lifters tip the scales out 1 pound 6 ounces each while do you think is added power away just one pound each most of the weight is distributed to the back of the shoe seems like the heel on the shoe is pretty dense speaking of the heel the heel no legacy lifter is a 3/4 inch heel and have a 22 millimeter drop which is much more dramatic heel job than the adidas at E power having that 22 millimeter here job does feel very different than the added power the Reebok Legacy lifters also give you much more arch support but when it came to squatting at the grass I did notice getting out of the hold was a lot easier than with the addi power the legacy lifters also have a footprint with a slightly larger surface area than the addi power the rubber outsole combined with the slightly larger surface make for a much more stable platform to perform heavy lifts with you don't have to worry about your feet rolling inwards unless you've got some really bad muscle imbalances or mobility issues but when it comes to flexibility the rubber outsole really suffers the Reebok legacy lifters are very stiff shoe trying to flex them is a workout in itself we'll just have to see how the flexibility changes as they get broken it aside from the golden heels which I think look badass I also really like Reeboks - metatarsal strap system it really allows you to customize the fit of these shoes the like easy lifters are pretty wide compared to the addi power but thanks for their lower strap you can adjust that along with the laces and Orpah strap you can make these shoes fit exactly how you want them to something I was never really able to do with my Hattie power I would usually end up getting some kind of discomfort while working out of them now when it comes to heel slippage there's zero - very little and that's thanks to two things versus due to the upper strap and they're very well designed he'll counter on the back this is Reeboks EXO frame he'll counter which wraps all around your heel the perforated foam also provides a very good amount of padding but it's also breathable enough to keep your feet cool while you work out the same perforated form is used on the thumb of the shoe but I did find myself constantly adjusting it during my workout unlike the adidas the Reebok legacy lifters don't offer any grip on the bottom of its tongue overall the construction and design of the shoe is superb you've got leather on almost 75% of the shoe with that extra padding around the straps which give it a little touch of finesse branding is kept to a minimal and classy things to Reeboks Delta logo also if you look closely you can also see Reebok stamp on the toe box and on one of the clasps I just wish the Aglets on the shoe were made out of metal instead of plastic Halloween if you didn't know this was called an aglet well now you know you're welcome overall the Reebok legacy lifters are very stylish and comfortable shoe for powerlifting and weightlifting the 22 millimeter hew job is pretty drastic compared to what I'm used to but adjusting is easy the two strap system on the legacy lifters really allow you to customize how they fit and they really give you a solid platform to lift it the rubber outsole and larger footprint ensure your feet aren't going nowhere when you're squatting I just wish there was a little rubber for grip under the tongue of the shoe to help it stay in place these shoes are amazing at one thing and one thing only and that's keeping your feet stable at all times if you've been squatting in the adidas added power or nike Romo Leo's 1 or 2 or any other squatting shoes for a while and you've been interested in to rebuttal in the selectors then try them out the larger heel drop could help your squat assumption of these stances these shoes are a little wide but I still go to the sides now if you're still new to fitness and you're still learning how to squat then I advise you to hold on try squatting and deadlifting barefoot and orange chucks chucks are cheaper alternatives and still provide a stable platform for working out it you should first work on your form and make sure you enjoy squatting and then lifting on a regular basis before investing all that money into a pair of shoes but if you've been working out for a while and you've been eyeing the Reebok legacy lifters then pick them up your leather inside oh well wet they're 200 on the price set I was pleasantly surprised when I was working out of there and I feel that you would be too hey if you made it this far I hope you enjoyed the video if you could please high-five the like button it helps the channel grow if you like videos like this subscribe there are more product reviews and fitness advice videos coming for more check out Jim connect and I'll catch you next time
