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. One of our lightest shoes, 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.

The Water Ring: Adaptability and Flow

The Water Ring teaches us to be adaptable and fluid, shifting seamlessly in response to any situation. The RUDIS Samurai Speed Wrestling Shoe is designed for wrestlers who understand that flexibility and quick adaptation are key to victory. Its lightweight design and stealthy, sock-like fit allow you to flow effortlessly from one move to the next, ensuring that you can outmaneuver any opponent, just as water shapes itself to its surroundings.

"Water shapes its course according to the nature of the ground, and a warrior must shape his actions according to the opponent." - Miyamoto Musashi, The Five Rings

• Ankle Wrap provides a secure fit across the ankle. A stretch fabric with a hook and loop closure system locks the foot tightly in the shoe without sacrificing flexibility or creating hot spots of contact
• Breathable Mesh throughout the entire shoe reduces weight and facilitates air-flow allowing for heat and moisture to escape
• Dual Crown Last construction provides the most anatomically correct foot shape while aligning key drive points across the forefoot
• Low Profile Outsole reduces weight while maintaining traction and flexibility. The lateral grip pattern is specifically designed for wrestlers who utilize rapid forward acceleration
• PU Footbed Liner provides excellent shock absorption while maintaining a low profile and close-to-the-mat feel
• Tongue Gusset: An ergonomic and narrow tongue design prevents bunching while the full length breathable mesh helps maintain air-flow

• True to size - We recommend ordering your usual size for a snug fit and sizing up a half size for a roomier fit.
