What we don’t like in regards to the TYR L-1 Lifter
BRADY: Okay, now onto the negatives, and for my part, this is perhaps a dealbreaker for some. I don’t have the widest foot on the market, however I discovered TYR’s patent-pending anatomical toe field to be a bit disappointing. In comparison with footwear just like the Nike Romaleos 2, it’s clear that the TYR L-1 Lifter’s toe field is wider and permits for a pure foot form, however once I first slipped them on, I discovered that every one of my toes had been nonetheless very scrunched.
Fortunately, I didn’t discover it an excessive amount of throughout my exercise, and I used to be nonetheless capable of obtain some toe splay throughout my lifts. Moreover, I really feel that for a premium shoe that ideally lasts me years, I need premium supplies and parts. The oblong break up loops offered are plastic, and the micro material materials used for the higher is ok at greatest. This isn’t solely a TYR subject, as a result of it feels in keeping with the artificial or woven uppers utilized in its competitors, however I believe at this value level, we deserve higher.
ROBBE: I’ll be trustworthy– I don’t know if a 21 mm drop is excessive or not for lifting footwear. From what I can inform, it’s fairly excessive. Its goal is to present higher torso place and enhance squat depth. I believe it did that; I imply, I may get my squat low sufficient that my coach advised me to take it simple and are available up a bit of bit. If this had been a path operating overview, the low squat can be nice for taking a dump within the woods; apparently that type of exercise is frowned upon in an open gymnasium. That stated, there have been instances once I felt I used to be moved a bit of bit an excessive amount of up on my toes, particularly throughout a squat, so I simply needed to be extra conscious of that.
As Brady talked about, the higher supplies did appear a bit of bit on the “not so premium” aspect for such a premium value level. Nevertheless it wasn’t a dealbreaker.
