Martial Arts Shoes Where can I buy martial art shoes?
I called several sports stores and they have no idea where to get them. I live in San Antonio TX. I would prefer not to get them on the internet, because I would like to try them on and I need them tonight. Thanks
I found this on Merchant Circle -

How to Do Sambo Martial Arts : How to Do a Distance Take Down in Sambo
Name an old martial arts movie?
All i remember is there is an old guy in red and during one fight they fight in a burning house and one guy doesn't have shoes and the floor is really hot. And at the end he kicks a dude off the building into a coffin thing.
Master of the Flying Guillotine (1975)
I love that movie.
Here is a youtube clip of the final fight in the coffin shop
When I started doing martial arts I was at a Dojo which put mats down on the floor but a while back had to change (I moved a long way away) to one that has a plain wooden floor and I'm finding it difficult to get enough grip on the floor because lost most of the ridges off of the soles of my feet due to an unrelated problem.
Is there anything that I can do, or any sporting products that I can use, to improve my grip on the floor as it's really inhibiting not to feel in control when training?
I've tried light weight sports shoes and they work quite well, but they get too hot and I can't do any contact sparing in them as it's not safe for my opponent.
Get a can of Firm Grip that racquet ball and tennis players use to spray on the handles of their racquets to keep them from slipping and or flying out of their hands. It works good just for this and if you spray just a little of it on the bottom of your feet before glass or sparring you will notice a huge difference. This is one of the the things that nationally ranked competitors use in national tournaments when they fight on arena concrete floors and it works very well for this as well as on hardwood gym floors and I carry a can of it in my bag all the time for this reason.

Finding the Proper Martial Arts Equipment
Before you buy martial arts equipment you need to know the purpose for training. You need to know if you are training for self-defense, fitness, or for combat sports. Each type will require different equipment.
Stretching is fundamental in the majority of martial arts styles. Therefore, stretching equipment is generally a good idea. Split machines have seats that are padded with some mechanism to easily stretch the legs. When you crank a lever a gentle pressure is applied to the inner thighs. This is to help with high kicks, roundhouse ricks and the like. The split leg machine needs to be done on a daily basis to receive maximum flexibility.
Punching bags and heavy bags should also become part of your basic home gym. Both should be hung from a strong ceiling beam. If you cannot hang them from the ceiling, then you need to make sure you buy the kind that can be filled with sand/water.
Kicking bags should be distinguished from punching bags. They are made from reinforced vinyl to allow multiple kicks. They are made so a person can hold the bag while another person kicks it.
Most importantly is a good pair of shoes. Good martial art shoes will have non-slip soles. The shoes should provide traction with a circular look towards the ball of the foot. This will allow for easier spins while lessening the likelihood for injury to the knee. Some people like to go without shoes but wearing shoes in a gym is better hygiene. Going barefoot at home is one thing; but, when at a gym it is best to wear shoes to prevent bare skin from coming into contact with the gym floor or the mats.
Last, check with your instructor for safety equipment. Your instructor is there to guide you safely through your martial arts training. Always ask your instructor for proper safety equipment.
Has anyone bought any? i was thinking of getting white/black ones, not the sparring ones but the hard soles for demos and stuff. whats your opinion on them?
