Wrestling Shoes

I remember in high school when I wanted to have the special shoes that wrestlers wear. They are completely impractical and pointless but I really wanted some. I never wanted to grapple but the thought of the shoes was awesome. I realize now in my later years that the shoes have no arch support and are hard on the knees and therefore would not be of any use to me. High tops also seems like a statement I am not wiling to make at this point in my life. For some reason, though, they were so appealing eleven years ago.
