Wrestling Singlet FAQs

How should a wrestling singlet fit?

A singlet fits snug all over — no loose fabric anywhere. Chest, waist, hips, and thighs all hug your body. Order true to size in most cases. If between sizes, size down for competition (looser singlets get grabbed and stretched during scrambles). Check the size chart for exact measurements. Fit varies by cut, so browse men's singlets, women's singlets, or youth wrestling singlets for your category.

What do you wear under a wrestling singlet?

Compression shorts and a jockstrap or athletic cup for men. Women wear a sports bra and compression shorts. Some wrestlers add a compression shirt under a singlet in colder weather. Never wear regular underwear — it bunches and shows through.

What is the difference between a high cut and a FILA cut singlet?

High cut singlets have higher leg openings for freer hip movement, standard in freestyle and Greco-Roman. FILA cut is the international standard for freestyle/Greco with specific leg opening and strap requirements. Folkstyle (high school and NCAA) allows both. Check your ruleset.

Can I order custom team singlets? What are the minimums and lead time?

Yes — custom wrestling singlets for teams start at no minimums with 2-3 weeks lead time. Design help included. Pricing scales with quantity. Contact us for a quote with your school colors, logo, and design brief.

How do I care for a wrestling singlet?

Cold wash after every practice or match, hang dry, no fabric softener. Sublimated designs don't crack or fade if you follow this. Machine drying breaks down the spandex faster.
