Gear

Wrestling Headgear

WrestlingPod offers a wide variety of wrestling headgear for both youth and adult wrestlers. Our headgear comes from suppliers; Brute, Cliff Keen Athletics, Asics, and Matman. The top selling headgear we currently have in stock in the Cliff Keen Tornado Headgear. This headgear is a head above the competition as far as comfort, weight, and hearing are concerned. New headgear releases from Brute and Matman mimic the design of the Tornado Headgear, offering additional options when choosing a high end wrestling headgear.

Wrestling Singlets

Offering a very large variety of singlets for both freestyle and folkstyle wrestling. We carry both high cut and low cut singlets from designers Cliff Keen Athletics, Asics, Matman, and Adidas. Our current pick is the Matman Athens singlet, which will be worn by the 2004 US Olympic team when they take the mat in Athens, Greece.

Wrestling Shoes

WrestlingPod offers both Asics Wrestling Shoes and Adidas Wrestling Shoes. Both Asics and Adidas have released new shoes this year, though it is our opinion that Adidas defiantly created the better products. The Adidas Adistar and AdiStarSL, Response, and the Adidas A'ttaak all are going to be popular shoes this coming season. The Asics Fifty Four and Split Second V are new styles, while Asics will add on to the current best seller the Asics Cael, by adding a Red/White/Blue color option.

Wrestling Kneepads

WrestlingPod offers wrestling kneepads to prevent knee injuries while on the mat. Our main kneepad suppliers are Asics and Brute, both companies offer quality kneepads that only have slight differences. The Volleyball, Unrestrained, and Takedown kneepads are our personal choices, but the Super Sleeve and Gel Lycra kneepads also provide quality protection.
