ASICS v Adidas
Another great shot from www.amateurwrestlingphotos.com. I'm always drawn to wrestling photos that show the wrestling shoes in action, like this one. This could be a kind of battle between ASICS and Adidas, the two leading wrestling shoe makers, for supremacy.
When watching wrestling as a neutral I often root for the wrestler in the best shoes, but it's hard to say who that is in this shot. Traditionally, I'm an adidas guy, but those ASICS Split Second V's really work for me. So, on this occasion, it's "Go ASICS!" (On the whole, I think ASICS are making better shoes than Adidas right now.)
Mystery wrestling shoes
As spotted on the excellent Amateur Wrestling Photo's website, these fascinating ASICS wrestlings shoes. They are clearly part of the "Wrestling '81" series of models but in colours I've never seen anywhere else other than this photo. I want!
Can anyone tell me where you can get these bad boys?
