Reebok Men's Lifter Pr Ii Running Shoe

Product Information

The NOBULL Canvas Lifter is a strong option for flat feet. This model has steadily grown on me regarding its performance and I think it’s a decent option for flatter feet. NOBULL is one of those love ‘em or hate ‘em brands. I discuss this at length in my NOBULL Trainers review, where our writer Amanda and editor Kate share their very different opinions on these controversial training shoes. Step 1: Grab a washcloth, a soft soap (void of harsh dyes and fragrances), and some lukewarm water. Step 3: After you’re satisfied with your work, remove the shoe’s insoles and place them in a dry area. While training and reviewing the Reebok Lifter PR II, I found multiple pros and things to like about this model.

The second thing to like about the Reebok Lifter PR 3 is that despite being a budget-friendly weightlifting shoe, its outsole has a good level of tread and it doesn’t feel “cheap” with its construction. The toe box in this model has a nice level of maneuverability and I’d describe its fit as neutral. It’s not going to be the best option for wide feet, but for most foot anatomies, the Legacy Lifter 3 delivers a good fit. Best Weightlifting Shoes for Women Reebok Legacy Lifter 3 Weight and Effective Heel Height:23.10 oz (size 10), 22mm/.86-inch heel height In general, we recommend a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) midsole and platform for weightlifting shoes. TPU is durable and stable; it doesn’t compress greatly under heavy loads; and it won’t deform for a very long time. Weightlifting shoes aren’t something you want to just buy willy-nilly. A haphazard choice could result in haphazard performance. Choosing the best weightlifting shoes for you is going to involve some analysis of your weak points and trouble areas during lifts.The heel elevation of the Reebok Lifter PR II comes in at 15mm/.6″ which is fairly low compared to other models. If you’ve never trained with an elevated heel, then opting for a lower heel elevation could be useful for acclimation purposes and to see what height would be best for your needs. When it comes to weightlifting performance, the Reebok Lifter PR II did a pretty good job. As mentioned in my pros section, this model can be a great option for newer weightlifters who are just getting into the sport of weightlifting. This allows me to have a variance in the range of motion demands that I’ll experience while training with different shoes which can be great for things like sport carryover and exposing my ankles/feet to different environments which can translate to building tissue strength. Over the course of my review and testing process with the Reebok Lifter PR 3, I’ve found a few pros to really enjoy with this shoe. When sizing weightlifting shoes, I often suggest having around a .5 inch of space at the end of your toe box. This is typically a good metric to work off of for most weightlifting shoes.

I think if you have an issue with being too eager with your toes and missing lifts forward, then you may want to consider this. On that note, that’s also why I actually like the Legacy Lifter 2 a little better for weightlifting as it didn’t have this same construction quirk. The bottom line is if you’re looking for a shoe that provides fantastic depth yet is flexible enough to wear during some functional fitness workouts, the Adipowers are a great choice. We personally test each pair of shoes in our home gyms and rate them on a variety of factors, such as: If you have either of these shoes and you’ve experienced durability issues with either of them, please reach out and let me know what you’ve run into so I can make those issues known in this comparison. Reebok Legacy Lifter 3 Vs Reebok Lifter PR 3 Price Second, the wider toe box is great for accommodating different foot anatomies, and compared to other weightlifting shoes you will get more width in the TYR L-1 Lifter. I like this because the toe box “feel” isn’t as drastic when switching to barefoot shoes for my deadlifts.For the Reebok Legacy Lifter III, I think most lifters and athletes should be safe going true to size in this model. This shoe length runs true and they have a neutral width to them. The Legacy Lifter 3’s upper is built with a blend of leather, textile, and mesh materials. This shoe’s upper feels a lot heavier and layered compared to the Lifter PR 3’s upper. If you like heavier-built weightlifting shoes, you’ll like this shoe’s upper.

For example, I think this shoe will work well for most athletes and lifters who want them for squats and weightlifting. Plus, if you enjoyed the Reebok Legacy Lifter II, then I think you will like the Legacy Lifter III. For weightlifting-focused sessions that are programmed in CrossFit WODs and for athletes that like adding cleans and snatches into their programming here and there, both shoes should work well.

First, the fit of this model is what I would describe as neutral with a bias towards being more narrow. Second, the upper volume in this shoe is pretty low so it gives you a snug fit through the midfoot and toe box. The Lifter PR II also features a heel height of 15mm or .6″, so if you want a weightlifting shoe with a lower heel height due to performance or acclimation reasons, then I could also see this model being a good fit for you.

There’s a fairly large price difference that exists between the Legacy Lifter 3 and Lifter PR 3, and by fairly large, I mean the Lifter PR 3 costs 50% less than the Legacy Lifter 3. If you have additional sizing and fit question about the Reebok Lifter PR 3, drop a comment below and I can help you out. Price Breakdown If you have narrow and neutral-width feet, then you should be fine going true to size in this model. It is worth noting that narrow and low-volume feet may have some issues with the strap running long. But, if you take a look at all of the lifting shoes available to you, you’ll see that they come in all different heel heights, from zero-drop to an inch. Lifting shoes with different heel heights have different purposes, and they can be worn for assistance during different types of workouts. The flexible mesh and canvas upper also do a good job of supporting this shoe’s breathability. I also like the rubber outsole and the level of tread you get with the Adidas Powerlift 5 on rubber gym floors, wooden platforms, and machines.

To cover the performance of the Reebok Legacy Lifter III, I’ll discuss how they work in a variety of training settings. I’ll break down this shoe’s performance for squats, weightlifting, and recreational lifting. Another aspect to like about the Reebok Lifter PR II is the fact that this model could be an awesome option for beginners who want to invest in their first pair of weightlifting shoes. One difference I noted is that v2 seem like completely leveled shoe meaning that feels completely horizontal where v3 feels like it's somehow falling inwards but that kinda feels better for my knees, not sure if this is only subjective impression due to my anatomy or it's a real thing. For example, my Reebok Legacy Lifter 2 and Reebok Lifter PR 2 are both going strong after a year of recreational use. I’ve even competed in powerlifting in the Legacy Lifter 2s twice now and they’re still in great condition.
