I was looking online for some running shoes and came across weight lifting shoes and wanted to know what the difference was between the two. I run and weight and know that running shoes can better your performance by a ton when you run long distances but do weight lifting shoes do the same when lifting? If so how? Thanks to all who answered.

running shoes help absorb the shock put on your muscles and joints when you run, where weightlifting shoes help your body position into a more natural and efficient weight lifting form.
p.s. using the wrong shoes for running may injure you, but using the wrong shoes for weightlifting should not do any physical harm!
check out the video on this weight lifting shoe. It compares lifting with running shoes vs. WL shoes. You certainly can injure yourself lifting in running shoes. http://www.vsathletics.com/product.php?x…
Obviously you would never run in WL shoes. They provide a stable base for lifting.
get cross trainers these are made for different types of exercise not just running.
