Is the Savage 1 good for lifting and HIIT?

Yes. The 4mm drop, firm heel and TPU heel stabilizer suit squats and deadlifts, and the multi-directional outsole grips during HIIT. It is not a rigid powerlifting shoe, so very heavy squats may want a dedicated lifter.

How wide is the toe box?

The toe box measures 95mm on a men's size 9, which is wider than most trainers. Shoppers with wide feet often size normally; narrow feet may want to lace tighter.

Can I run in the Savage 1?

For short runs and sprints, yes. The 17mm forefoot stack and EVA midsole give some rebound, but the shoe is thin for long distances.

What is the drop and stack height?

It has a 4mm heel-to-toe drop, with a 21mm heel stack and 17mm forefoot stack. That keeps you low to the ground for balance under load.

What is the upper made of?

A lightweight knit upper with a mesh tongue, plus TPU overlays at the toe and heel. The knit breathes well but gives less lateral support than a caged upper.

When is the Savage 1 cheapest?

Our take on the Men's Savage 1 (Black/Gum)

The Savage 1 is a men's training shoe built for lifting, HIIT and short runs, with a knit upper, EVA midsole and molded rubber outsole. Its 4mm drop and dual-density footbed put a firmer heel under the bar and a softer forefoot for jumping and running. The toe box measures 95mm on a men's size 9, which is wide for a trainer. It has a 4.9 out of 5 rating from 79,173 ratings.
