ENoblewrestling Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I am bored, and I am getting some new wrestling shoes. Any recommendations out there for an old coach that will mainly be using them to walk around the wrestling room and yell in? Also has anyone wore the new Varner's, they look cool, but seem like they could get dirty real easy. If anyone else has anything else wrestling shoe related to add to this discussion please feel free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabio Jr. Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I personally think those look super dumb. Im a fan of the Combat speeds. If i could find a pair of 54s, lyteflexes or ultra flexes id be super pumped cause who has time to tie shoes.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
base Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 This gives me an idea for a niche market -- orthopedic wrestling shoes designed for older coaches. All velcro, all white and modeled on the "Shape-Up" tennis shoes that were the craze a few years ago. You'd be able to wear them at practice, then just keep them on for the 4pm dinner trip to MCL Cafeteria at the mall. Y2CJ41 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way I can still look hip, but have the comfort i'm looking for. Also it was kind of false advertisement, its more the fact that I am too lazy to get on the mat anymore, than that I am too old.

samaj Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 We will see how the Varners hold up. People either love the looks of them or hate the looks of them. I do know that as a team dealer I am struggling to get my hands on them. They are selling extremely well and the factory is having trouble keeping them on the shelf.

Hero123 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I have a black pair of varners and The good thing i like about them is that they are really light weight and look very slick, they do get dirty in the white spots but are an amazing shoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
