ASICS Wrestling shoe survey

Those excellent people at Worldwide Sports Supply have done it again. This time, the opportunity to vote for your favourite in a range of excellent new colorways for the classic ASICS Dan Gable wrestling shoe. Click on the blog title to visit the survey.

Here's the one I voted for (as did many others). Shades of a classic Adidas Combat Speed colorway here, surely?

All Stars Weekend - Part 1

This weekend I shall be wearing Converse All Stars exclusively. On Friday evening, it was these:

Vintage wrestlers - from the 80s

All Black Tyguns

...as seen on ebay (click the title to visit the auction page). Every so often a very unusual Tygun colorway appears on ebay and this is the latest. I like them!

New Feiyue black hitops

They've arrived! I love how they come in a brown paper parcel, tied up by their own laces, instead of a box!
