How to pick baseball cleats:
- Playing Surface: The size of the cleats you need are reliant on what type of surface you are going to be playing on. If you are going to be playing on synthetic surfaces like turf, you will need shorter spikes than if you were playing in sand, mud and grass. The deeper the spikes can sink into the surface, the more control you will have
- Age of Player: Younger players usually have rubber spikes while high schoolers and professionals use metal spikes for better traction.
- Ankle Support: High-top baseball cleats provide a little extra support for your ankle than a low-top baseball cleat shoe. But the low-top cleat is going to be lighter in weight.
- Laces or Velcro: Laces help those people with narrow feet to feel more stable, but they do have a reputation of coming undone. To prevent your laces from untying mid game, get a laced shoe with a Velcro strip on top. Slip in the bow and ends of the laces into the Velcro strip and you will be secure the whole game.
