      Training and Nutrition forum should be more appropriate.

      Personally, I like Everlast shoes for more support. Ringside shoes are pretty nice also, but are a little softer. Boxing shoes basically run similar to wrestling shoes, except with more grip and far more ankle support.

        Stay away from these shoes - can wind up in a wheel chair.

                **** Nike and their Machomai. They fall apart within a few months, it's just a bunch of layers glued together. **** Nike in general. **** quality. Same for Neverlast. Don't buy that ****.

                Onitzuka Tigers are badass in terms of quality and style.

                  I've heard terrible things about the Machomai also. They apparently give no support and feel like slippery socks.

                    They do. I paid 100 bucks for those ****ty Nike's and they're just pure crap. The lacing system is ****ed up, they don't give any ankle support, the sole is a cheap piece of rubber glued to the rest of the shoe and it actually starts separating after 2-3 months to the point where it almost falls off. They're light but that's about it. Might as well wear some flip flops and save yourself 90 bucks.
