I watched this video a while back and my immediate reaction was the urge to punch this "designer" who has no idea what he's talking about, "splits into a snatch position", I mean come one how hard is it to learn the verbiage of the sport.  I agree about the "idiot Nike marketing department" and their incompetency.

just like his comment about 1000lbs over your head...

where are they available in Europe?

I would assume Nikestore.com ships internationally.  If not then maybe you could purchase them through a third party and have them shipped to wherever you live by them, like someone gracious enough on this forum  :)hello.  None of the major retail stores here in the US seem to have the shoe in stock, only Nike's site.

Has anybody found other sellers that have better prices for either the Romaleos or the new Adidas shoe?

I have a pair of the VSA athletics shoe and I like them. The heel is a little thicker than the Adidas but they are also wider, which works for me as I have a wide foot. For $72 (less than half the price of the Nike's) I don't think you could do any better.

I hadn't been to VSA's website in a while, they have some shoe on sale for $45 and they are now linking to Mike Burgener's gym.

That youtube clip above certainly makes for a great advertisement for Adidas... actually, any other brand

Go Nike!  They sure know a lot about weightlifting!  How do I know?  Look at how they advertise these shoes- with the Nike Romaleos you can "dominate the deadlift"!
