As you progress in Taekwondo, you will need to upgrade your
cheap & ill-fitting "beginner" Taekwondo shoes. Therefore, I
have added my reviews of some highly ranked Taekwondo shoes.
These Taekwondo shoes are for more advanced and/or serious students.
I am always trying to find the perfect Taekwondo
shoe - it must be tight (I always try to get a shoe that is a 1/2 size too small), not too
"slippery" (I want to spin but not fall on my ass) and tough (in
order to survive all of the spinning and kicking). Explore the
shoes below for the perfect martial arts shoe!
Adidas AdiLuxe Martial Arts Shoes - I wear these shoes for Taekwondo. Nice shoes. However, the
sole always seems to separate from the shoe after about 6
months. I make these shoes last longer by using shoe glue to fix
any problems.
Adidas Taekwondo Beijing Fight Sneakers
- Not sure why they are called Beijing sneakers - unless they were
designed for the Beijing Olympics. More expensive than most of
the other
Adidas Taekwondo shoes.
Adidas Black Martial Arts Shoes - These
Taekwondo shoes are black versus the typical white Taekwondo
shoes worn in most schools.
Adidas Star Martial Arts Shoes
- I don't know if these Taekwondo shoes are any good but I like the USA flag design!
Adidas Adi-Evolution II Taekwondo Shoes - Looks more like a soccer shoe
than a Taekwondo shoe but what do I know.
:)
Adidas Low Cut Martial Arts Sneakers
- Adidas Taekwondo sneakers.
Disciple
Martial Arts Shoes
- I haven't tried these Taekwondo shoes but they get good
reviews.
Doshu Shoes from Puma
- Doshu combat shoes from Puma.
Mooto Wings Martial Arts Shoes- I haven't tried these
Taekwondo shoes but I like their Mooto
sparring gear. I might try these in the future.
ProSpecs Martial Arts Shoes - This
Taekwondo shoe claims to be the first designed in Korea.
Tiger Claw Martial Arts Shoes - These are cheaper than most of
the other Taekwondo shoes out there. Since they are pretty cheap,
I might try to get a pair to use as backup shoes.
Wushu
Shoes
from Feiyue
- The shoe choice (supposedly) of Shaolin monks.
If you have any Taekwondo shoe "advice" or have a personal
