Default Shoes

Hey Ladies!

Do any of you wear special weight lifting shoes? Any advantage to them vs tennis (running) shoes?

I wear Nike 3.0 Frees. Jane linked to a good thread. There are several good threads about shoes. This thread turned into a good discussion of shoes for lifting starting at post #23: Bulgarian Split Squats

I usually just visit Champs and get a nice pair of running shows to do mainly everything with.

Wow. What a great thread! I'm switching to my Chucks for lifting. Thanks for all of the input and links, everyone.
