Danny Nemani reviews the Nike Romaleos 2 and compares them to the Adidas Power Perfect II.
Of course shoe reviews depend a lot on foot size and shape. What’s good for Danny might not feel right for you.
But he concludes that the Nike Romaleos 2 have:
- reduced knee and hip wobble / ankle lateral wobble
- increased stability in pull and push
So he gave them a 9/10 on the Nemani scale.

I have never tried the Romaleos but am very happy with the power perfect 2’s. The Romaleoes are also ~ double the price!
GregorATG says
Yeah the price is hefty. That is why I would buy past years models of shoes.
John Frough says
I thought the power perfect was the powerlifting shoe from Adidas. Hardly a fair comparison when it’s up against an o-lift shoe.
GregorATG says
From everywhere I have looked the Power Perfect 2 are weightlifting shoes.

Ill stick with my cheap do-win oly shoes I got years ago I feel they are all pretty much the same and if you don’t care about style get the cheapest one you can.
GregorATG says
And why not. If it works, it works.
I got lucky and got some Adistars of ebay for €30 a while back and I think these will last forever.
