Hildebrandt - All Heart
STRUCTURE
Anatomically specific to address the unique shape and contours of a women’s foot; Narrower in the heel and wider in the forefoot.
UNDERFOOT
Built for intensity of women’s wrestling, this platform works to reduce stretching while offering support to the bottom surface of the foot. This is important because it helps to support more flexible feet with greater joint laxity to remove excessive movement.
WEIGHT
Lightweight and responsive, built to match the speed and intensity of women’s wrestling.
UPPER
A full base layer of engineered mesh wraps the foot for a lightweight, breathable feel, with larger openings throughout the midfoot and arch to help cool the hottest parts of the foot.
OUTSOLE
Provides seamless movement from the bottom to the top insuring a feel for the mat and a transition of support throughout the entire shoe.
COLLAR
Every detail of the heel was crafted to fit a woman’s foot. Secure, supportive, and seamless, the outsole curves naturally into the upper for a locked-in feel, while the rolled heel tab design adds comfort and additional ankle support.
PRODUCT DESIGN
While the core performance features such as grip, flexibility, and ankle support remain consistent across both, the primary distinctions lie in sizing, fit, and foot shape.
Women’s wrestling shoes are generally built on a last that accommodates their unique biomechanics and foot shape, with features like a narrower heel. In contrast, men’s wrestling shoes typically have a wider overall fit and are less precisely tailored to anatomical differences.
PRODUCT DESIGN
Another standout feature is the PowerDrive™, engineered to maximize energy return and responsiveness. It helps athletes maintain performance through powerful transitions and stances, enabling sharper direction changes, stronger shots, and improved mat control. It also reduces the forces that can lead to turf toe and other injuries.
Our product development team has collaborated closely with female athletes and coaches to design wrestling shoes that are purpose-built. We've created a fit that truly aligns with the unique anatomical and performance needs of women on the mat.

"4 months later and quality is fantastic. Thankful for womens fit on these Sara Hilderbrand ! My daughter had to wear men’s/boys that didn’t fit girls more narrow feet properly. Her feet had blisters and bled almost daily until these. They’re are a godsend! Oh and the box is so fun"
"I love these shoes!! Lightweight and breathable, and they fit my foot sooo well as a girlie. Not too feminine and pink all in your face, but still stylish. Thank you, sarah!!"
"Nice, solid shoes. Holding up well on the mat so far. Easy to tie/lace. Daughter loves them. May run a little on the roomy side, had to downsize."
"My daughter says they are the most comfortable wrestling shoes that she has ever had and we have had a few. They do run about a half small size so order up."
"Shoes were comfortable and stylish, my daughter loved them! Recieved a lot of compliments on the look!"
"My daughter’s first pair of Rudis! She loved them. Fit true to size for us."
"Very good quality shoes , comfortable and light weight. I am happy with my purchase"
"I’ve wrestled in them for a season and they lasted all season long. They’re comfy and look cool."
"My feet are just slightly different sizes and also I have arthritis so they tend to swell after hard practice or a tournament. I bought my original 8. 5 size and they were way too small for comfort, so I went up a half size to 9. I haven't had a chance to test out if I need to go to a 9. 5 yet (with all my support sleeves and gear etc. ) but Rudis made the return/exchange so incredibly fast and easy I was majorly impressed. I know that if I need to size up again it will be super simple to do so. Love the look and feel, seem good quality and my teammates like this brand, so I can't wait to start using these!"
"I love this show!!"
