Next-generation barefoot lifting shoes for powerlifters and strength athletes.

The Notorious Lift Notorious Lifters Gen 3 Lilac deliver true barefoot performance for heavy lifting and high-volume training – combining stability, comfort, and control in a durable, gym-ready design built for powerlifting, strength training, and functional fitness.

The updated supportive, breathable upper balances flexibility with structure, giving you a natural feel while keeping your foot securely locked in during squats, deadlifts, presses, and accessory work. Designed for long sessions, it helps manage heat and moisture so you stay comfortable under load.

A stable, low-profile build keeps the shoe grounded and consistent – improving balance and force transfer when training heavy. The wide toe box lets your toes spread naturally for better stability, comfort, and confidence on every rep.

The Gen 3 stays true to the Notorious Lift DNA: zero drop, wide toe box, no arch support, and full flexibility for natural movement and long-term foot health – a go-to choice if you’re looking for barefoot lifting shoes or minimalist gym shoes with a stable platform.

Customer video review of Notorious Lift - Sumo Sole Gen 3, Pure White

Absolutely love them. My regular shoe size is 48.5 because I have a wider foot, but I got these in size 47 and they fit perfectly. Strong and stable grip on the floor, can't wait to see what will they bring in my upcoming workouts.

Customer photo review of Notorious Lift – Sumo Sole Gen 3, Blackout

Excellent shoes for Deadlift, squat or any other exercise. It's confortable and it looks like good materials. If you need for traditional Deadlift, I also recommend it.

Customer video review of Notorious Lift – Sumo Sole Gen 3, Blackout

Not just for deadlift but these shoes are AMAZING for bench press too! I'm a state record holder for bench and I drive so hard with my feet I have issues with slippage or butt lift. Those shoes are non slip and nice and flat so I don't leave the bench! For deadlift the front of the shoes are really wide, like you can wear thick socks wide. I never was able to spread my toes before in a shoe and deadlifts for reps over 300lb went extraordinarily smoothly! Very good balance. Lastly there is some arch support so you can walk around during your powerlifting meet from bench until the last deadlift and feet will be plenty comfortable. I've tried the rest, THESE ARE THE BEST!

Customer photo review of Notorious Lift – Sumo Sole Gen 3, Blackout

I have tested it in training and the sole does not slip. I also feel like I can stretch my toes out to the sides better because of the wide sole compared to the 2.0 version.

Notorious Lift – Sumo Sole Gen 3, Blackout

They are comfortable and also wide, and my usual size fits great (if you want a snugger fit, I would advise going a size down). The sole feels solid, great for a sumo stance. Big thanks to customer support too, they were quick to help when I had a delivery issue.

Notorious Lift – Sumo Sole Gen 3, Blackout

The fit is excellent, they are not slippery at all and ensuring a stable and secure grip on the floor. Considering the prize, these shoes offer great value for money.

Notorious Lift – Sumo Sole Gen 3, Blackout

Comperate per curiosità simona rivelate molto efficaci in generale facili da stringere e regolare con gli straps..leggere ma soprattutto efficaci per lo squat..come essere a piedi nudi ma con la sicurezza di una buona suola...se fossero state in pelle sarebbe stato il massimo

Store owner replied: Thank you very much for the review Christian, we're really happy you're satisfied with your lifting shoes! All the best, Strength Shop Team

So far so good I cannot comment on wear as I have only used them a few times. Quality is very good & a very snug fit (which is what I wanted & need). I have a high instep so not the easiest to slip into so invested in a shoe horn. That aside they are very comfortable & offer excellent grip. I wanted a shoe that allowed to me to continue with the conventional deadlift as well as experimenting with the Sumo variant which this shoe does. Don't know if I will be able to come back in 6 months to a year & edit to update on durability & if they are still as comfortable hence only 4 stars. If they are I would up rating to 5 stars.

Notorious Lift – Sumo Sole Gen 3, Blackout

Brilliant!! First set of specific deadlift shoes. Previously used vans but these are a huge step up. The grip is phenomenal, can really notice a difference in being able to push through my feet more with these. Would definitely recommend them

Notorious Lift – Sumo Sole Gen 3, Blackout

Great shoe but size up! These shoes are excellent for sumo deadlifting, however be warned the UK sizing doesn't match your typical European sizing e.g. UK6 would usually be size 39, not 38. I actually settled with a more roomy EU size 40 after two returns as with sumo deadlift you want to splay your toes slightly. Great shoe though!

Notorious Lift - Sumo Sole Gen 3, Pure White

I have had trouble with performing well in my equipped benchpress sessions due to feet slipping, causing me to lose my arch and torso position. These shoes have such great soles, my leg drive improved dramatically. In fact, while attempting a 290kg equipped bench after getting these, my leg drive was so solid my ACL tore right the fuck off. I rate these shoes 10/10.
