Notorious Lifters Sumo Sole Gen 5 Gold Mirage – the Evolution of the Ultimate Powerlifting Slipper

The Sumo Sole Gen 5 Gold Mirage builds on everything that made its predecessor a benchmark in powerlifting footwear. Based on the proven SSG4 platform, the latest generation introduces targeted upgrades for even better grip, durability, and comfort on the platform.

The new Novus™ 3.0 Griptech outsole delivers 15% more grip and 10% greater durability compared to the previous version, ensuring maximum traction on any surface. Combined with the ultra-low 3.8 mm stack height, you get unmatched floor contact and stability for every lift.

The lightweight knit upper now features laser-cut ventilation, providing improved airflow without compromising structure or support. A redesigned TPU heel counter replaces the previous faux-leather construction, creating a lighter, cleaner, and more responsive fit.

Signature dual straps lock the midfoot securely in place, preventing forward and lateral movement under heavy loads. Together with the high side walls and multi-layered heel support, the Sumo Sole Gen 5 keeps your foot perfectly centered when it matters most.

Whether you're pushing heavy training sessions or stepping onto the competition platform, the Sumo Sole Gen 5 delivers uncompromising ground feel, stability, and control.

ZERO HEEL-TO-TOE DROP

With zero drop and no underfoot cushioning, the perfectly flat sole keeps you fully connected to the floor for maximum stability and power transfer.

LIGHTWEIGHT SLIPPER CONSTRUCTION

The breathable knit upper wraps around the foot like a sock while remaining supportive. Laser-cut ventilation improves airflow and comfort during intense sessions.

NOVUS™ 3.0 GRIPTECH OUTSOLE

The latest generation of Novus™ Griptech delivers 15% more grip and 10% increased durability over the original compound.

At a total stack height of just 3.8 mm, the Sumo Sole Gen 5 remains one of the lowest-profile powerlifting slippers available, providing unmatched floor feel and traction for every lift.

BAREFOOT FEEL

The flexible outsole moves naturally with your foot, promoting better biomechanics, stability, and power transfer. Combined with the proprietary Novus™ 3.0 rubber compound, it provides the ideal balance between grip, flexibility, durability, and ground feel.
