Wrestling Gear and Equipment

Performance and Protection

Wrestling can test physical limits in every way and wrestling gear plays a vital role in promoting a competitive edge while safeguarding against injury. Foremost in performance support is footwear; light and flexible wrestling shoes provide important ankle protection and stability while their outsoles ensure traction on the mat. Elite competitors tend to prefer shoes with split soles for their flexibility, while others in need of arch support are likely to choose full-sole models. Be sure to check out Eastbay’s Fit Alert in the product descriptions to help you order the right shoe size.

Protective headwear ranges from minimal ear guards and hair covers to fully padded headgear. Knee pads and extended-length leg sleeves promote muscular stability and help prevent injury. Apparel choices include the tight-fitting competition singlet, usually in spandex, available in both men’s and women’s versions. Whether your wrestler competes in Greco-Roman or freestyle, Eastbay has a singlet that will meet your needs. You can even find short-sleeve compression shirts and grappling shorts for daily workouts. Eastbay rounds out its wrestling collection with sweatshirts and sweatpants, gear bags, and themed t-shirts.

We encourage all participants to consult with their coaches and organizations to ensure that all recommended and required equipment needs are met.
