Chucks or any shoe with a flat sole. Some dudes just take off the shoes and lift in their socks. Each and every person has their preference or what feels right to them. I suggest trial and error to find what works for you because what may work for us wont necessarily work for you.

I prefer barefoot; unfortunately, most gyms won't allow that. Go with some Vibrams or very lightweight shoes as an alternative.
I read a great article on the importance of barefoot training recently by a guy who trains pro football players, but I can't seem to find it.

Olympic weightlifting shoes for squats (all variations) and bench, Barefoot shoes (not Vibram, other brands) for deadlift and everything else including conditioning and running.
