like most say these shoes are very light. the soles are nice an stiff and seem suitable for lifting such as squats, snatches, and cleans. the fit is snug, I read other reviews and ordered a half a size larger (I usually wear between a 10.5-11, so I ordered an 11) there is a lot of area in the toe box for movement, similar to reebok crossfit nano 4, but not excessive. the finish of the shoe is very nice the only thing I wish is that it had some beefier laces, the laces on these seem inadequate. overall I like the shoe
