For those who have them are they worth it? I'm thinking about getting a pair probably the VS's if anything.

I got a pair of Rogue Do-Wins (half a size too small) and holy shit it felt amazing to squat with them.

You can go deeper with better form. And you are so much more stable.

I only used them once though, because they're too small on me. Too lazy to get another pair that fit me.

rogue do-win have done me right so far and they cost less than $100 when i bought 'em. that website looks solid, actually, thanks for the link. might try for those wei-ruis when the do-wins die.

kingfish can address higher-end shoes if he feels like it.

I'll sell you my 2011 do-wins for $85. Only wore them once. They are literally brand new still. You can even smell it.

you talkin' to me? if so, 1) i'm not in the market at the moment; and 2) your feet are too small.

Lol I've had them for i think 2 years and don't know what to do with them. they're small on me too. a 9.5 would be perfect for my feet, even a 10.0 is fine.

Are olympic lifting shoes supposed to fit VERY snug?
