The RUDIS Samurai Speed Wrestling Shoe pays homage to the life of a warrior while also serving as a weapon for those seeking victory in battle on the mat. Our lightest shoe to date, the RUDIS Samurai is built for the wrestler who knows speed is a powerful ally. Designed with a reinforced sock-like fit; the wrestler and the shoe truly become one. The one-piece, omni-direction outsole provides a classic yet stealthy feel built for ultimate control.

• Ankle Warp provides lightweight support around the ankle to lock down the shoe for a tight and secure fit
• Dual Crown Last construction provides the most anatomically correct foot shape while aligning key drive points across the forefoot where a supportive platform is needed
• Engineered Mesh throughout the shoe provides breathability and support where necessary. The open-mesh weave facilitates air flow and allows for heat and moisture to escape
• Omni Directional Outsole provides grip & traction focusing on specific drive points. High-wrapping rubber on the lateral and medial sides of the shoe that maintains traction when foot is at an angle
• PU Footbed Liner provides excellent shock absorption while maintaining a low profile and close-to-the-mat feel

The Samurai depiction was chosen as the Dave Schultz Wrestling Club logo, paying tribute to Dave’s studies of Miyamoto Musashi, and a life of excellence. 

Inspired by Dave Schultz, the RUDIS Samurai is a reflection of the way Dave lived his life both on and off the mat.
