What kind of a squat are you doing?
I actually got to where I feel better performing all my lifts barefoot. Except high bar squats. Those don't feel good at all regardless of footwear.

120 X 8 is nice. How is the BW? with the conditioning you are doing I have to believe that you are dropping some LB's. I stopped doing the press outs because I wasn't keeping my scaps tight. I think I might add them back in and see if I can do them correctly.

AC in the house broke....awesome...new condensor being installed today. Yesterday in the house before we left it was up to 96. Hopefully I'll be able to hit the gym today after everything is fixed...my wallet is mortally wounded!

AC repairs suck money out of the wallet like a vacuum cleaner.
