Yeah, I got some Levi brand ones that are pretty much identical and they were $40.

I can't get my feet into chucks because the toe box on them is too narrow. Plus, the soles do compress a bit when squatting. One of many reasons I like my Sabo's. Flat bottom, metatarsal and ankle straps for increased stability, and made in Russia- BUILT LIKE TANK!

You should be able to get a better price. I got the exact ones in the picture for 27.00 today (they were slightly onsale)
I wasn't shopping for the sale yet I was just making sure I knew which ones to get. I'll find a deal. I have to go get a bigger gym bag and a few other things tonight or tomorrow so I'll shop around while I'm out

Thats what ive been doing the last 2 weeks. And squats. But I was hoping there was a better way. Eventually ill give in and get some good shoes, but until then, chucks itll be.
Note: The no shoes helped me a lot!

I'm deadlifting tonight!! Nothing better than a late night DL session when the gyms empty. What music do you guys listen to when you're getting amped up for a PR ?? I personally almost deafen myself with hatebreed

I used to do that, but I got some slippers since they're required at a meet. My new gym doesn't allow no shoes either.

Pantera on the way to the gym sometimes, just the gym radio when I'm there.

Mainly all the time it's gym radio for me, but when deadlifting I need people blockers hahah!
I'm allowed to wear socks at the meet which i actually have come to prefer.

My fed you have to at least wear slippers and socks up to the knees for deadlift. And singlet, of course. Until my last one I'd been doing deadlift and squat in socks and just worn regular shoes to the gym. It was at my old gym though.

How do you all deal with your little aches and pains? Ibuprofen, ice, heat, stretches, other?
My right shoulder is aching a little today. It's usually shoulders and elbows for me and my job has me up and down on a concrete floor a lot, which doesn't help it any.

Tbh I've never really done anything other than foam rolling pre session when I have pains.
Are wrestling shoes good for DL and squats?
And
I thought you wanted a shoe with a raised heel for squats?
And

Yes on the wrestling shoes.
It varies on squat. Low bar squats a flat shoes is better. High bar the raised heal can be better. I consider myself to be a low bar and still like the raised heal
What Rob said about the shoes.
For aches and pains I generally work through unless they're bad in which case ice bath, massage, foam rolling, etc
