Nike Tawa Wrestling Boots Black/Red
The Nike combat-sports footwear range — HyperKO, HyperKO 2, HyperKO 2 SE, Machomai 2, Machomai 3, Speedsweep, Tawa, Fury, Hypersweep and Inflict — is built on a deliberately narrow last for ring agility and pivot grip. That narrow profile, combined with Nike's tendency to run half a size short of the marked UK size, is why our customers consistently fit better when they order half a size up from their usual everyday shoe.
Fit tip: Order half a size up from your normal size. This is Athlete Performance Solutions' official Fit Tip (Nike's authorised combat-sports licensee) and it matches the feedback we hear from M4F customers. If you have wider feet or you plan to wear a thicker training sock, consider a full size up.
The UK and US Men's sizes shown on each Nike product page follow the conversion in the table below. US Women's sizing runs 1.5 sizes higher than US Men's for the same shoe (i.e. a Men's US 8 is a Women's US 9.5).

Sharp angles and explosive shots define the Nike Tawa Wrestling Boots in Black/Red — one of the most-worn Tawa colourways across amateur and college wrestling rooms. A Flyknit zonal upper hugs the foot like a sock for cutting angles, while a rubber-wrapped sole delivers grip on competition mats from every direction.
The Tawa platform sits at the centre of Nike's wrestling line for a reason. The breathable Flyknit upper handles long sessions through humid wrestling rooms, the NikeSkin overlay adds exoskeleton-like ankle support, the lace garage prevents the mid-match lace untie, and the split sole gives the flexibility wrestlers need for shots, sprawls and scrambles. Equally at home in the wrestling room, the BJJ academy or the MMA cage, the Black/Red Tawa pairs performance with a colourway that reads professional under any kit code.
Main features:
- Flyknit zonal upper hugs the foot for a tailored, lightweight, breathable fit
- NikeSkin overlay adds exoskeleton-like ankle support without bulk
- Lace garage tucks the laces away to prevent mid-match lace failure
- Split sole and rubber-wrapped outsole deliver mat-grip and flexibility for wrestling movements
- Versatile across wrestling, BJJ, Judo and MMA training
- Available in sixteen sizes from UK 4.5 to UK 13
