      Anything with thin and flat soles.

      Kelei's post is correct, OP.

      To give you examples:

      Old school converse all-stars. Some people like some Puma shoes that have very little sole. Wrestling shoes. If you're gay, then go with Vibram Five fingers. Hell, you can lift barefoot if you can get away with it.

      This is what I prefer although some gyms make you wear shoes for insurance reasons.

      The issue I have with the "issue" of dropping a weight on your foot is, unless you're in steel toes a 75 lb dumbbell will destroy your toe regardless.

      Yeah. When doing deadlifts I'll slip my shoes off, do the set, then put them back on. Gyms don't seem to mind it when doing it that way. But I could see other patrons having issues if you're just walking all over the gym shoeless.

      I think it's got more to do with slipping over rather than dropping weight on your feet. Speaking of slipping, never leave your socks on if you're going to train without shoes.
