Wrestlers who want the greater sliding ability of Wrestling shooting sleeves yet still want some padding for knee protection have several options to choose from. The range between bubble wrestling kneepads and Wrestling shooting sleeves recently made room for a unique new variation: The ASICS Snap Down Sleeve. The ingenious design is reversible, making an anatomical fit for either the left of right knee. This makes for much greater comfort and flexibility, and is an innovation so simple that ASICS' competitors in wrestling kneepads are likely kicking themselves. In addition, the ASICS Snap Down Sleeve features antimicrobial properties to help fight odor, as well as perforations to help release sweat at the back of the knee.
ASICS boasts the most options of all brands offering wrestling kneepads. In addition to the aforementioned ASICS Snap Down Sleeve, they offer the ASICS Super Sleeve Kneepad, ASICS GEL Lycra Kneepads and ASICS GEL Reversible Kneepad.
