Favorite high top flat shoes for squatting? I’ve been using Adidas Hard Courts and love them but they are hard to find.

I have switched back to chucks with a thicker side. Brian and a few of the guys on the team have used some Nike Flights and Jordans. Any of them with a nice flat and hard sole is perfect. Just need to make sure the sole doesnt break.

Brian Carroll

Brian is a world-class powerlifter with over two decades of elite and pro-level powerlifting under his belt. Coming back from a devastating back injury in 2012 that broke multiple bones and that most experts said he would never recover from, he has returned to the pinnacle of world-class lifting (while 100% pain and symptom-free) and is now dedicated to helping others avoid the same mistakes that he made in the past through private and group coaching in Jacksonville, FL. Brian’s impressive recovery has given him the opportunity to teach and deliver talks to physical therapists, chiropractors, medical doctors, professional strength & conditioning coaches and experts from all facets of sport, on how to avoid injury, while building anti-fragile strength and resilience in athletes.

I am partial to Chucks. I have noticed that people with a wider flat foot find it difficult to “grip the floor” due to the narrower toe on the Chucks.
