If you’ve never deadlifted before, yeah, it’s not an ideal choice. If you’re intentionally doing deficit deadlifts though, or your body is just shaped such that the extra height makes the movement more comfortable, then it’s not the worst choice. Those hard soles probably provide a better, more solid base than the running shoes I see a lot of people lifting in. Ankle mobility probably leaves a little to be desired though.
Isn’t it a bad idea to lift with those shoes?
