more like 'FAT TROLL' Member 984, 6331 posts SQ 420, BP 260, DL 335 1015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq	For me: high bar/oly squat - oly shoes low bar - flat shoes Obviously it's easier to hit depth in oly shoes. But they also throw you forwards when using a lower bar position.

I took about £4 out of Sooty's bottom Member 685, 8719 posts SQ 225, BP 150, DL 290 665.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	On the back of this thread I tried squatting in my socks. Not sure if it made any difference but it was comfy enough so might stick with it.

Member 1668, 1499 posts SQ 186, BP 102, DL 211 499.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	As has already been said, try both and see what works best. Oly shoes throw some people forward on low bar squats. I've got Ironworks and love them, though. Definitely the best for the olympic lifts and overhead work. Many even prefer them for low bar squats, too - I do.
