About this deal

No matter how strong the laces are, the support straps will always be mandatory. By squeezing your feet inside the shoes, they allow you to safely lift heavier weights. The Romaleos 3 The Reebok Legacy Lifters has a weight of 20.6 ounces, which makes it one of the heavier lifting shoes on the market. A heavier shoe can be beneficial for a few reasons, such as maintaining a planted foot and slowing down overactive feet. A potential issue I could see withthe Romaleos 3’s heel height would be for powerlifters who need a shoe specifically for low-bar squats. Some lifters may findthat higher heeled lifting shoes actually hinder low-bar performance.On the contrary, if you need a higher heel than the Romaleos 3s offer for Olympic lifting specific purposes, then you may not get the height you desire from this shoe. Heel Construction

Contrary to how the 2’s were designed, Nike decided to shrink the outer Swoosh and limit it to the forefoot. The mesh rows are molded around it, which makes it pop out more.In terms of the shoe’s shortcomings, she did point out a few cons that relate to shoe’s durability and said, “The sole of the shoe on the heel is starting to peel off a tiny bit. There is a small tear in the tongue, so I have to make sure when I put them on that I grab in the center of the shoe’s tongue instead of on the side.” Each lifter’s heel is made out of TPU, which is lightweight durable material resistant to abrasion. For this reason, we feel the heel heights are equal in terms of which is best, as it will depend on a lifter’s preference and needs. As the name suggests, the Romaleos 3 XD came to correct the serious durability issues of their predecessors. Nike replaced the flimsy mesh with perforated leather to improve the performance without impacting breathability. And thankfully, things worked out well this time. The Romaleos 4 Must say I was hesitant on purchasing this lifters, but must say I’m glad I did, they helped me improved my PRs and pretty stable. In my opinion they feel better than my “no bull” lifters. If you want something cool to brag about, both shoes will be excellent. Still, the minor differences in the design might leave you favoring a pair over the other. Nike Romaleos 3

The XD’s look pretty identical to the originals. To allow the customers to visually identify them, Nike removed the inner Swoosh that was placed underneath the collar on the original 3’s. Possibly the most defining feature of the Nike Romaleos 3s is the upper shoe material. As mentioned above, this model features Nike’s signature Flywire material. This material is known for it’s ability to be lightweight and flexible, yet strong in nature. The Romaleos 3 are the first lifting shoe designed by Nike to offer this and you can feel the difference through the mid-foot and toe box. Unlike the previous Romaleos 2s, the 3s are relatively flexible upon their first use. This could be a plus for lifters who need a shoe to break in fast and feel comfortable right away. Nike Romaleos 3 Upper Shoe Construction Similar to the Nike Romaleos 2, the 3s come with two soles, one being stiffer than the other. The lighter sole gives the Romaleos 3s a weight of 13 oz, while the stiffer sole comes out to 15 oz. This is a cool feature for an athlete who has a particular feeling they like when moving weight. Another con Weichers mentionedwas that she isn’t a fan of their aesthetics, “I don’t like how they look, but I like how they feel.”See, the mesh is too weak to bear the stress of the constant toe splay that you inadvertently do to support yourself during most lifts. After it tears, the shoes will feel super loose, thereby forcing you to throw the pair away, even if everything else is still intact. The Romaleos 3 XD The product listing also includes some more information about the new model, a lot of which was rumored by not yet confirmed: Heavier build: The TPU midsole covers a larger area with a higher density. This should enhance the support by cementing your feet to the ground.
