Pros & Cons
What We Like...
- Flat heel is perfect for deadlifts
- Can get them in low-tops and high-tops
- Minimal midfoot cushioning won’t flex under heavy lifts
What Needs Improvement...
- Minimal heel-to-toe drop won’t help with back squats
- Narrow through the midfoot
- Canvas construction isn’t highly durable
Product Summary
Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars are the original minimalist shoe. With a near-zero heel-to-toe drop, a sturdy rubber outsole, and lace closure, they provide stability for heavy lifts. The minimal drop also allows you to feel grounded during deadlifts and squats.
