Hot New Wrestling Shoes for 2010 – 2011 Wrestling Season

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

Here are the wrestling shoes we expect to be the hot wrestling shoes for the 2010 – 2011 wrestling season. They are already selling really well on WrestlingGear.Com and we would not recommend waiting too long before you decide to check these shoes out.

We expect many vendors to try and reduce costs this year and when I say that I expect inventory to be very tight this year. Gone are the days of ordering a lot more shoes than the stores like us order and hope to sell them. Look for many of these shoes prices to increase as they are less readily available.

Here are our top 7 hot wrestling shoes for 2010 – 2011 wrestling season:

1) Nike Inflict Wrestling Shoes – Red Black – this shoe was not made last year. It was in the past and we could have sold a bunch of them in 2009-2010 season. Here is your chance to get them now.

2) Nike Inflict Wrestling Shoes – Grey Black – this shoe was made last year, but there were not enough made last year to satisfy demand. Remember trying to find this shoe last year? If you did, you likely did not find it.

3) Nike Inflict Wrestling Shoes Blue Black – same as #2 on this list, it was made last year but not enough. This is listed as number three even though it could have easily been #1 or #2. It’s listed as #3 because it’s not the most neutral team color. It will be highly sought after though.

4) Asics Aggressor Wrestling Shoes Royal Blue and Grey – great team color combination (and neutral too). This will be the surprise of the year I have a feeling. Although since we designated it as our #4 hottest shoe can it still be labelled a surprise? This is an updated version of the Rulon wrestling shoe and will likely challenge for one of the hottest wrestling shoes of the season.

5) Asics Aggressor Wrestling Shoes Red and Black and Asics Aggressor Wrestling Shoes Royal Blue and Gold – was not sure where to put these two shoes as far as #5 or #6 so I put them as #5 (also it let’s us slip in an extra pair of wrestling shoes into our top 7 wrestling shoes picks of the season.  The Aggressors are an up date to the Rulon wrestling shoe and will feature a more comfortable toe area. Don’t know what to call the toe area on this shoe, but my cross training shoes have this feature and they are much more comfortable due to this new technology.

6) Combat Speed III Wrestling Shoes – can’t go wrong with this shoe. At around $60 retail for this shoe, it is going to be a favorite work out shoe at the minimum for the Elite wrestler not looking to beat up his $125 pair of wrestling shoes day in and day out in practice. However, I think many people are going to fall in love with this shoe again. Remember if you like this shoe or any shoe we sell, they generally only last for a few years and then are gone. Combat Speed II wrestling shoes typically sell in excess of $150 to $250 even in used condition. At $60 these shoes are going to be a steal. It looks like these shoes are going to be readily available at your local sporting goods store so sometimes that will effect a shoes desireability if anyone can get it.

7) Asics Wide Split Second 6 Wrestling Shoes – what a shoe that is over 3 years old is going to be on the hot 7 for 2010-2011 wrestling season. We’ll almost no one carries this shoe so it sells well for us. We are committed to offering you the wrestling shoes you want for the season. We will only bring in a few hundred of these pairs of shoes, but they will likely sell out within a few weeks of us having them delivered. If you happen to be lucky enough to get these shoes while we have them, consider yourself lucky. They won’t last and even waiting a day can cause you not to get them. And at $70 retail price, most parents won’t have a problem getting these shoes for kids with a EEE width.

Update for Inflicts and Combat Speed III Wrestling Shoes

Friday, June 4th, 2010

The Inflicts have been selling well in fact several sizes are already sold out (darn it we ordered too few of them). Kind of crazy a few of the sizes were sold out as pre-orders. Right now we have enough in stock in most sizes.

The Combat Speed III’s shoes are on the way to the warehouse, there was a mix up with adidas not knowing that we want the adult shoes as soon as possible. So if you pre-ordered your wrestling shoes from WrestlingGear.Com they will be on their way next week.

Can’t wait to get the Aggressors in from Asics. That is our last shoe that we are going to carry for 2010-2011 season that we don’t have in already. Look for this to be a hot seller and if the Rulon’s are any indication of how hard they will be to find this year, better get those orders in sooner than later.

I suspect once again Nike, adidas, Asics will all be holding inventory pretty tight for wrestling shoes (there most expensive products usually). Gone are the days where they can bring in a ton of shoes and hope they sell. To be fair, we are the same way. We are ordering what we think we can sell and running through what inventory we have. We simply can’t be stuck with a ton of wrestling shoes at the end of the season.

If you are done growing or don’t anticipate growing too much between say September and December, best to get those wrestling shoes early in September or October.

Asics Dan Gable Ultimate 2 Wrestling Shoes Blue Black Silver

Check out the Asics Dan Gable Ultimate 2 Wrestling Shoes in Blue Black and Silver

Just to give you the heads up about Asics Wrestling shoes – they all do have a lace guard mechanism that meets the rules set for wrestling in the USA.

We recently noticed many of the Asics wrestling shoes in our photos don’t have the lace guard mechanism shown properly. Here is an example of the Dan Gable Ultimate II wrestling shoes. We will be updating all our photos this year to make sure we shoe you with the shoes lace guard mechanism engaged properly.
