Footwear Friday: Practice makes perfect with Nike’s Air Elite PreGame Training Shoes

Click for big

As we’ve said before, you can’t overstate the importance of a good set of cleats.

Proper footwear will not only reduce the risk of injury, but it will also improve your performance on the field. With better traction, less resistance, supported ankles and comfortable feet — you’ll always be at your best on gameday.

And on training days, it’s just as important.

That’s why it’s key to wear softball-specific training shoes, like Nike’s Air Elite PreGame Training Shoes. These softball training shoes are designed to handle the stresses that softball players put on their footwear while in the cages, doing speedwork or in the weightroom.

Nike’s Air Elite PreGame Training Shoes feature a rubber outsole for the right amount of grip on a variety of surfaces, everything from the cages to wet grass.

The Nike air cushioning in the heel makes for a comfortable ride, and the lightweight material (13 ounces per cleat) makes these cleats ideal for running. While the synthetic leather upper provides provides durability, support and a custom fit, tailor-made for softball players.

While these softball training shoes are ideal for workouts, they’re also great for pregame warm-ups, coach’s shoes and umpire’s shoes. We’d wear them to a wedding, if we could get away with it.

Click for big.

We’ve never been big fans of the “One size fits all” approach to finding the right softball equipment.

What’s the best softball bat on the market? That depends. Are you a power hitter, a contact hitter or a slapper? Planning on using the bat for a travel league, the school season or just on the weekends? There’s a lot to keep in mind.

What it comes down to is that different athletes demand different things from their equipment.

Mizuno’s Women’s Watley G3 Switch Molded Softball Cleat is designed specifically for softball players that compete on the elite high school or college level who demand performance and durability out of their softball cleats.

They’re made with a dynamic synthetic leather body, designed to withstand not only the rigors of daily practices and frequent games but also to the high-speed movements and abuse that elite-level athletes put on their footwear.

And athletes will be able to dish out some punishment with Mizuno’s patented 9-Spike configuration. It provides aggressive traction and stability designed for running, batting and throwing movements.

With a molded cleat design, the Mizuno Women’s Watley G3 Switch Softball Cleats are comfortable and lightweight. At 9.1 ounces apiece, there will be less fatigue and wasted energy.
