Price is not an issue. Is he in New York City? If so, there probably is. Where I live (Long Island, NY, farther south than where Phyre lives) there's none that I know of. Modell's *may* have something, but I doubt it. There might be some small niche store or something, but I'm not sure where you'd get good lifting shoes that's not online. In the city's completely different though, because there are so many stores that you can't really guarantee anything. | ||

Also going to be trying new squat PR tomorrow. Currently at 205lbs x2 from the other week which was moderately hard, going to be trying for 225lbs (2 plates!!!), even if only for 1RM. Then going to be trying for 1.5 plates (185lbs) on bench (yes it's my worst and I know :/) up from my current of 175lbs. 175lbs was fucking hard when I got it the other week though, so I'm not as confident in getting that. Gonna have to fucking eat a lot that day. Gotta get dem partial goals before leaving on my trip. | ||

I'm pretty sure they ship to Chile. I don't know how reliable mail service is where you live, I had my shoes shipped to a friend in Texas then had her ship them to me through UPS. It was a bit more expensive but not much. | ||

Shipping is super expensive. Won't be doing serious oly liftting until may 27 anyway, so no point in expending earlier. I'd rather get the adidas though, dont mind expending 100 bucks for something I'll be using for 10 years at least? | ||

Unless you meant "100 more than the cheaper options." Also I would only recommend the adipowers if you have a narrow foot, otherwise they're just not going to fit properly and you dont want to have to deal with returning an international purchase. | ||

He has been bitching about it since like october/november last year. But yeah it's getting ridiculous now, they made a whitehouse.gov petition and it got taken down haha. I predict he will get a qualifying total for worlds/pan ams then slam the bar to "prove a point" and get DQ. CALLED IT. | ||
