Review on ASICS Split 🤼 Second Wrestling Shoes USA by Mark Bearden

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Finally the wide leg mixed martial arts and cross training wrestling shoes

I ordered these a few months ago after realizing I couldn't train barefoot like I did as a teenager had and 20s. These shoes give me the ankle support I need to prevent hamstrings during plyometric training and martial arts, and also give me the mobility I need for heavy bagging and shadow boxing. I train on a 2 inch gym mat because I have joint problems and sometimes when I'm just warming up and the mat is dry I find the sole sticks a little but when the mat gets slippery from sweat that's it no problem anymore. I haven't had hamstring pain since I started using them for ALL my workouts including strength training and calisthenics. I usually wear a size 10 to 10.5 and I wear thin invisible socks with them and they fit perfectly despite my incredibly flat feet, which get flatter and wider as I get up. At the end of a long workout, when my feet swell a bit, I still feel very comfortable in these boots. I wish there was a different color choice (maybe some red accents?) because I'd love to have a different pair for work!

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
