Title: Best Cricket Boots - With Black Friday around the corner
Post by: Calzehbhoy on November 22, 2018, 04:14:55 PM
Anybody got any recommendations for spiked cricket trainers UK size 10-11 depending on manufacturer?

I've had the Adidas Boosts which I liked but struggled for grip in all but perfect conditions. I've also had Payntr's which were perfect but have unfortuantely completely fallen apart after 10 games usage.

Any recommendations greatly appreciated?

Asics usually get good reviews. I am very pleased with m spikes after a season of use. I also use New balance for coaching, warm ups tc and the grip has been fine, as has the fit (I have quite wide feet).

The most important point is fit - it might be worth stocking to known makes/ shapes that you know fit you, or try some on (not easy before Black Friday).

ASICS no longer sell cricket shoes in the UK/European market

My suggestion would be New Balance, but everyone’s feet are different, you need to try a few pairs on really

If it’s the Payntr mark 2’s you should be able to return them under warranty

Would that be the case for the pair I had from you Rob?
