also, an advance warning: if you do end up getting shoes, BACK OFF THE WEIGHT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND BUILD UP SLOWLY. even if you don't feel it acutely, the shoes change the movement and your body needs time to adjust. i fucked up my hip when i switched years ago because i got so excited about the increased stability*, and i know at least one other guy who did the same thing (after i gave him this same warning and he didn't listen, lol).
*in fairness, i'm super prone to nagging injuries and always have been.
