Inov-8 hasn’t been in the weightlifting game long, but it has impressed. In our best weightlifting shoes guide the Fastlift took us by surprise by nailing the critical components of a great lifting shoe: foot stability and rigidity, with the ability to do other types of cross-training and functional exercise without feeling uncomfortable.

The Fastlift 360 is the brand’s affordable lifting shoe, a great entry point for beginners.

Who it’s for: athletes new to lifting who also want a shoe for functional gym sessions.
