Wrestling Shoes

While most wrestling shoes boast about their lightweight, durable designs, there are several choices out there that focus on one of the most important characteristics of a wrestling shoe: Grip.

Asics Aggressor

Specifically designed for maximum grip, the Ascis Aggressor has an aggressive outsole (hence its name) to give you the best traction possible on the mat. A spin-off from the popular Rulon wrestling shoes, this fiery shoe will be sure to give you the best grip possible.

Adidas Mat Wizard IV

Featuring their top of the line adiWEAR outsole, the Mat Wizard IV is Adidas’ answer to the ultimate grip for wrestling shoes. With additional suede overlays, these latest generation shoes are perfect for those wrestlers who value grip about all else.

Nike Inflict

Using its gum rubber outsoles with forefoot wraps, Nike’s Inflict wrestling shoes allow you to grip the mat from any angle. Coming at a cheaper price than the previously mentioned shoes, this boot also has the added bonus of coming in multiple colors allowing for complete customization.

Don’t let other brands fool you. Make sure your new boots have the best grip possible.

The right wrestling shoes are crucial to your performance on the mat and the brands Asics, Adidas and Nike make the best shoes out there.
