Wrestling shoes are a type of athletic footwear used in training and competition for the sport of wrestling. [1] They are designed to be lightweight and flexible, providing traction and ankle support on wrestling mats. [2] The use of appropriate footwear in wrestling is also associated with reduced transmission of skin infections in mat sports. [3]
