@edge , do you think those ceramic spikes would be compatible with cricket spikes ( I'd fit them out on the Payntrs ) ?
I'd be surprised if the thread size for running spikes wasn't the same, pretty sure golf spikes are for example. Ceramics would be a gamble though, you don't want to end up snapping them off, particularly in a new set of boots. Titanium would probably be the best to try? Find a running shop near you and pay them a visit would be my move.

Running spikes should be golf spikes are predominantly plastic with oversize threads or quick lock fittings as most clubs have banned metal spikes

Did read on his twitter these are supposed to be for batting primarily which put me off a little as I need fielding spikes

Not sure that's what threw me

Theyre absolutely lovely, my only gripe would be they do seem a little "dads bought himself some brand new white trainers"

I got my pairS today....unfortunately seem a little too tight for me. Toe would get some lovely blisters after wearing them. I'll re try then when I'm home. First thoughts are love the design but actually expected them to be a bit confier in terms of sole...they're pretty firm

I used those lace ups on my old boots, worked but broke when bowling... But as their batting does hopefully you guys won't get that problem.

As a size 12, these are incredibly difficult to put on with the current laces but once in aren't bad, couldn't wear any sort of thick sock with them however! Taken the laces out and will see the difference that makes.

Hmmm as a size 11 looks like they should be ok for me so may look to invest in a pair

was waiting to see on comfort levels

they do look nice and sturdy but do they feel different to normal cricket spikes?
