Description

The ideal all-around wrestling shoe at an entry level price, the new mat flex 5 provides the excellent comfort and support that fans of this shoe have come to expect. A full length gum rubber outsole provides outstanding traction while enhanced breathability is provided where you need it most. Great performance at a better price, the mat flex 5 provides excellent comfort and support that won't pin your wallet.Weight: 8.3 oz. In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onitsuka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano," which, when translated, expresses the ancient ideal of "A Sound Mind in a Sound Body." Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fitness. Today, ASICS offers a full line of performance-driven athletic shoes and technical active sports apparel and accessories dedicated to bringing harmony to the body and soul.

  • Very grippy soles. My preferred shoes to squat and deadlift.
I normally wear a size 7.5/8 for everyday shoes such as vans/converses. Decided to get a size 8 and it was extremely tight and narrow and I could barely get my foot into it (Had to really loosen the laces and really jam my foot in). I went to return it and sized up to a size 9 instead of an 8.5 and they fit very nicely. There's a little extra room on the toes with the size 9s still but I'm using these to squat/bench/deadlift so it didn't need to be a very snug fit for something like wrestling. I'm sure the 8.5 would've been fine for me as well, although it would have probably taken a few sessions to really break them in. Used it for a few training sessions already and they feel very comfortable and stable. The grip on the soles is excellent for me since I deadlift in a sumo stance. It also feels amazingly stable when I externally rotate my hips for squatting. Yes, I prefer to squat in flat soles shoes vs shoes with a lifted heel. I opted to buy these pair of shoes instead of the Crossfit lite TRs because the price was alot cheaper. Perhaps when these are too worn down I'll give the other shoes a try, but for now, I'm really digging these matflexes. ... show more

  • Size up a full size (2 half sizes).
SIZING SUMMARY: These shoes run a half size smaller than other Asics wrestling shoes (I compared their measurements to the Asics Matflex 6). Size up a half size if you have narrow, flat feet. If you have average or slightly wide and/or slightly high arches, size up a full size (2 half sizes). If you have very wide feet, size up 1.5 size or more. Because of the narrow shoe design it is unlightly your foot will slide down into the extra length from sizing up to accommodate foot width. The correct size will feel SLIGHTLY tight in the toe-box. A size too large will fit like a street shoe in the toe-box. IN DEPTH SIZING EXPLANATION BELOW: For context I'm a 5ft3in tall adult woman. I wear a women's 8.5 and a men's 7 in most shoe brands and found the SIZE 8 (men's) in these shoes to be most comfortable. I purchased these shoes in a 7.5, 8, and 8.5 to test which size I would like best as I was unsure based on previous reviews. I have an average to wide toe box (9.5in width while standing at widest point) and an average to high arch. Based on length, these shoes (Matflex 5) run a half size smaller than other Asics wrestling shoes (I compared them to the Asics Matflex 6, in which I wear a men's 7.5). In terms of length, toe-box width, and arch height, the Matflex 5 SIZE 8 is equal to that of the Matflex 6 SIZE 7.5. This should mean that my true size is a size 7.5; however, this shoe was too small. The toe-box of the size 7.5 was more narrow than my foot while standing barefoot and there was hardly enough room for my arch (you could see my sock if the tongue was pushed to the side even slightly. I sized up to the size 8, but found it was still tight around my toe-box, so I tried the size 8.5. Unfortunately, in the 8.5 the extra room in the toe-box and arch area allowed my feet to slide around slightly while trying them on. This is how I prefer my street shoes to fit, but I purchased these shoes for tricking and freerunning, so I didn't want my feet to slide at all (an issue I have with Feiyue). I added my usual arch support inserts and this eliminated the sliding issue, but the arch supports prevented me from using my full range of pointing motion in these shoes. The loose sole that lets you fully point and push through your toes is a huge benefit of this style of shoe, so I chose to size back down and keep the size 8 shoes. REAL WORLD TEST: I wore the size 8s to work (I work in athletics) and for some tricking. My feet didn't slide around at all and I was never in danger of rolling my ankles because the shoes don't have a lip to their soles. The lack of true arch support and tight toe box will take some getting used to, but I've heard wrestling shoes can stretch out, so I'm going to wait for that to happen. The shoes aren't something I'd recommend wearing for longer than your wrestling competition/workout because the tight fit isn't the most comfortable, but they definitely get the job down while you're wearing them. The back of my right ankle had a lot of chaffing during my wear despite me wearing thick, crew socks, so be ready to experience some chaffing while you're breaking the shoes in. ... show more

  • Best wrestling shoes for the price!
Size: 7.5 Color: Black/New Leaf
If you are very careful in choosing the size, you will be pleased with your order. These run very small so just size up. I ordered a 7 1/2 for a girl that wears 7 1/2 in women’s. They fit perfect. These shoes have great grip on the mat and look great. They are very lightweight and sturdy. I highly recommend. ... show more
