Wrestling shoes, chuck T's or any shoe with flat sole...There was an article in Elite some time ago and they do not recommend boots because unbalance between front and back of the foot, and obviously tennis shoes can be really unstable and make you lean forward under the bar...

Thanks. I appreciate the information.

The article capitalized that you don’t want to squat in “Army boots” even if you feel patriotic…
