Thanks for the review. The pump is orange and looks like that because they are a tribute to the original basketball pumps. As someone who was a kid in the 90s when those came out, I love that they did it that way. The best are the white with blue woman's version which was the original colourway.

I was looking for this review on your channel as i discovered Reebok was shipping to my country, leaving my options to adipower 3's, romaleos 4 and Reebok legacy 3's. Didnt find the review so I just ordered the 3's, ofc one day before you guys release this video. I really need maximal heel height, hope I made the right choice. Edit: Might be as good as romaleos 2's and an improvement of the legacy 2's. Sounds like it was the right choice. Keep posting great content.

I managed to pick these up with a 35% discount, coming from the Adidas Power Perfect 3. They are simultaneously more secure and more comfortable than the PPs. The pump system makes lacing down the shoes tight a lot more comfortable for me. Bought the black/blue ones. For anyone interested in sneakers the colours are actually kinda interesting. They’re all throwbacks to shoes from Reebok’s past, like mine are Shaq’s first signature shoe. Think they’re doing it for the nostalgia factor, now that Reebok no longer is part of the adidas group.

I remember a video with Andrei Aramnau's quest for getting new weightlifting shoes. He was sent a pair of the original Adipowers which he did not like. Then he was sent a pair of the original Legacy lifters which he liked initially before deciding that the high heel was throwing him off. He finally settled on the Power Perfect 2's which he ended up wearing at the 2019 world championships. I always thought that 3/4" heel was the standard for weightlifting shoes. It seems like the new weightlifting shoes coming out in the last half decade have all been higher than that.

How's the toe box in these compared to the original Legacy Lifters? I understand that it's apparently much narrower, but is it like to the point that I'd have to order a bigger size to fit in? My LL1s are starting to fall apart, so I'm in the market for new shoes I guess. Tried Leistungs recently, but they're too narrow and uncomfortable for me, would be a shame if the new LLs run similarly.

Maybe give the Savaleos a shot. Roms 4’s are .75”, Savs are .59”. Otherwise the Inov-8 FastLift 325 are supposedly pretty good, very light and .65” heel height. Otherwise might be worth looking into shoes for Powerlifting or Crossfit.

@@the.Aruarian Savaleos is too sneakers-ish. Soft and sloppy feeling. I had given a thought to a crossfit shoe before, but the lack of lateral support makes me think it wouldn't be a very good idea. I had also given a thought to Tyr's shoe, but it's hardly available in my region. The vision of not having my toes cramped up to the point of discomfort is quite tempting, ngl. For now I've reduced effective heel height and that poking arch support by throwing out the insoles and putting in normal flat ones in my Rom4s. Builtin ones give probably some 30% of the heelheight so... yeah.

Pump tongue reminds me a bit of the original adidas leistung lacing system. But, having a mediocre history with legacy lifters I’ll probably stay with my romaleos 2 until they finally fall apart. Have had them for 7 years of nearly daily training and they’re holding up aight still besides losing some of the lacing and the tags on the tongue and interior. If anyone does have a suggestion close to the quality and feel of the romaleos 2 or the original Adidas adipowers drop the recommendations here.
