Custom Wrestling Uniforms, Singlets, Shirts, Shoes & Jerseys
It is believed that wrestling is the world’s oldest sport, so old
that exact dates of its origins will forever breed disputes among
historians. However, the general assumption is that wrestling originated
in ancient China, where Shuai Jiao employed basic tactics in an epic
battle against Jiao Ti in 2697 BC.
There were no referees, no scoring systems, no wrestling singlet or
wrestling shoes. The competitors did brandish some wrestling gear,
albeit lethal horned helmets capable of serious flesh destruction.
Simply put, basic wrestling techniques were featured; however, it wasn’t
medals and championships for which they battled.
The sport evolved into a non-lethal, recreational activity roughly
around the 16th century, when wrestling became a highly popular event in
France and other parts of Europe. Once again, the custom wrestling
uniforms of the day differed greatly from those seen today, as wrestlers
predominately donned little or no clothing whatsoever.
Today wrestling has evolved into a worldwide spectacle, with numerous
variations of the sport taking preference in different regions of the
world. Greco-Roman, freestyle, submission, beach, or sambo – minor rule
changes exist in each version, yet the core goal is always the same.
A staple of the sport is the custom wrestling singlet, which is the
preferred clothing in most variations of the sport. The close-fitting
elastic one-piece prevents the opposition from gaining any advantage by
latching onto loose fabric, and thus there are no wrestling shirts or
shorts worn in serious competitions. Custom wrestling jerseys display
the colors, names, and logos of teams, and they enable judges and fans
to distinguish between the engaged competitors.
Both wrestling shoes and head gear have also become popular through the
years. The shoes afford competitors some traction on the smooth, often
slick, mats, while the head gear protects the ears from severe cuts and
tares. From top to bottom, custom wrestling uniforms differ from those
worn in other sports because every inch of fabric serves a functional
purpose.
