I've been thinking of picking up a pair of weightlifting shoes but for now I'm still just wearing chucks. Do you front squat or high bar squat? I heard with those styles of squatting if you want to squat ATG with heavy weights weightlifting shoes with a raised heel are pretty much mandatory.
Rippetoe even recommends them for deadlifting. But I think he's in the minority because most people recommend something with a flat bottom for pulling.
Anyone else have experience with weightlifting shoes?
