You could always get the new Adidas Power Perfect II Weightlifting Shoe, if you don't want to fork out on the shipping for the Ironworks from abroad but they will set you back about 90 quid.
These are what i use for pressing events (sure i didnt spend 90 tho), anything movement (Farmers/Yoke) wise il wear trainers and static (DL/Sq) ADIDAS EXTERO II wrestling boots. Really like the boots!

690.0 kgs @ 111kgs UnEq		Think I'm going to Buy Do-Wins.. £75 + £5 postage on amazon.

Adiddas Power Perfect looks Good, but not sure if its worth an extra £15..

Yoke- VS Athletic Oly Shoes with an Arch support insert.
Stones on grass- Footy boots.
stones on asphalt/concrete- oly shoes or runners.
Deads- Chuck Taylors
Overheads- Oly Shoes
Truck Pull- Rock climbing shoes, (Although i have used chuck taylors too, worked surprisingly well)
Farmers on grass- footy boots.
farmers on concrete/asphalt- oly shoes or runners.
Squats- Oly Shoes

727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq		I have a pair of Do wins I use for OH (made a big difference) and squats.

I generally wear hiking boots for carrying events, particularly ones on uneven ground.

I have pretty flat feet and find that with soft soled shoes (most trainers, unless thin soled) my feet sink inward and it puts pressure on my knees, which was apparently a factor in ly knee injuries in the past.
