I've just got some brand new Adistars, size 11 and they are tight as f**k. They're the silvery ones from a couple of years ago. Does anybody know if they're likely to stretch a bit, or will I need to get a bigger size? Or do they need to be super tight if I'm going to do any proper lifting? I know nothing about it, except that my feet are hurting a bit at the moment - lol!

All I know about Adidas shoes is that they're narrow as hell. Not really much you can do, though I'm sure they'll feel more comfortable through normal wear and tear.

I bought a white/silver pair the other week that look like golf shoes. I've no plans to squat in them, just using them to bench with as I'm a short arse.Wink

I really need some new ones but can't bring myself to spend £90 on some.

I can send them back and swap for a larger size, I just wondered if they were likely to give a bit. They're synthetic (not leather), so perhaps they won't. I have got very wide feet, as you'd imagine, being a bit of a fat c**t.

some of the Adidas should give but if they are tight as f**k, then i'd prolly send 'em back..

.though if you treat them right they will last forever, mine are still going strong after 8 years....got an old pair of the club shoes, was being cheap at the time, but they have served their purpose

i too like you and Carlos have 'fat' feet

Sounds like I may need to go up a whole size then. I was thinking about getting 11.5, but these really are ridiculously tight. I wore them for about ten minutes last night and my right foot was really painful (the side, not the toe).

Cheers for the info.

I have narrow feet and mine fit nicely. They do have a snug fit, you do have to loosen the laces quite abit I find. Great supportive shoe.
