There have been handfuls of questions asked on our Adidas Powerlift 4 and Adidas Power Perfect 3 reviews about their differences and similarities.
Most of the questions fall along the lines of, "Which shoe is the best?" The answer to this — like with most questions in the fitness industry is — it depends.
Both of these models are excellent, cost-efficient shoes and have subtle differences between them, so the real question should be, "Do the differences really matter?"

CONSTRUCTION DIFFERENCES
Below are a few of the construction differences between the Adidas Powerlift 4 and the Power Perfect 3.
1. Slight Heel Height Difference
Powerlift 4: .6"
Power Perfect 3: .75"
2. Strap Placement
Powerlift 4: Slightly lower
Power Perfect 3: Higher on the mid-foot
3. Mid-Foot Construction
Powerlift 4: Traditional construction & lacing
Power Perfect 3: Derby style lacing
For most recreational lifters, these subtle construction differences don't really matter when it comes to performance. For example, a slight difference in heel height and strap placement isn't going to cause a major shift in overall lifting performance.
Now, there are a few cases when these subtle differences might matter, but again, this will be a for a very finite part of the lifting population.
EXAMPLE SCENARIOS
If you're a weightlifter and want a slightly higher heel that is also similar to what other weightlifting shoes offer for an easier transition down the road to different models, then reach for the Power Perfect 3.
If you're brand new to elevated heels and have been lifting in flats, or tennis shoes, then the lower heel height of the Powerlift 4 could be beneficial — simply to ease the transitional period.
Outside of these scenarios, don't stress the tiny construction differences too much. After all, a lifting shoe is only one part of the bigger picture of becoming great at lifting and a specific strength sport.
If you like a model and it fits your budget, then opt for that model and stop overthinking small details!
