In a sport where explosiveness, balance, and body control are key, quality wrestling shoes are the foundation of your performance. Whether you're shooting, scrambling, or defending a takedown, your footwork needs to be fast, stable, and confident.

The wrestling shoes from Fightstyle.nl are specially designed to meet the demands of today’s wrestler. Lightweight, secure around the ankle, and equipped with a sole that grips the mat perfectly – giving you full control in every situation.

Training in regular sports shoes or barefoot can restrict your movement or increase the risk of injury. Wrestling shoes are designed to support all the typical movements of freestyle or Greco-Roman wrestling, as well as MMA or BJJ sessions where takedowns and stand-up techniques play a key role.

Benefits of wrestling shoes:

✔ Grip without restriction – perfect for dynamic footwork

✔ Lightweight – fast, responsive movements

✔ Ankle and instep protection – reduced risk of sprains or abrasions

✔ Improved hygiene – prevents direct skin contact with the mat

With the right footwear, you move more smoothly, more stably, and with greater confidence.

Our wrestling shoes are suitable for athletes who actively train in:

Wrestling

Whether you're a beginner or training at a national level, shoes specifically designed for wrestling help improve posture, increase speed, and reduce the risk of injury.

MMA

Many MMA fighters use wrestling shoes during stand-up grappling drills and technique training to sharpen their takedown game.

BJJ (no-gi)

In no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling shoes are sometimes used during stand-up training or cross-training sessions, provided they're allowed in your gym.

However, these shoes are not suitable for boxing, Muay Thai, or kickboxing — those disciplines require different soles and mobility.

A good wrestling shoe combines grip, flexibility, and protection — without sacrificing speed. Here's what to look for:

1. Optimal sole grip

The sole should offer excellent traction on the mat without being too sticky. This allows you to move quickly while maintaining control during scrambles and takedowns.

2. Lightweight feel

Wrestling shoes should feel like a natural extension of your foot. Lightweight materials help you stay agile and responsive in every movement.

3. Ankle support

High-top designs are common because they offer crucial ankle support without limiting mobility. This helps prevent sprains during explosive movements.

4. Breathability

Good ventilation prevents sweaty feet and reduces the risk of slipping inside your shoe. Mesh panels or moisture-wicking liners are a big plus.

Choosing the right shoe can elevate your performance, prevent injuries, and boost your confidence on the mat.

At Fightstyle.nl, you'll find wrestling shoes in youth and adult sizes. Especially for younger athletes, a proper fit is crucial to prevent injuries and overuse. That’s why we offer a wide range of sizes tailored to the needs of both beginners and advanced wrestlers.

Keep the following tips in mind when choosing the right size:

✔ They should fit snugly, but not be too tight

✔ Try them on with the socks you normally wear during training

✔ When in doubt, go half a size up rather than too small

Proper maintenance extends the lifespan of your shoes and keeps your training hygienic:

Always let your shoes air dry after use
