I’m Vince and on behalf of expert village and we’re going to talk about cleats.
Cleats are important. It’s definitely something that you wanna take care and you wanna have precaution to match your cleat to the conditions that you’ll be playing on.
The condition that we’re on right now is an astro-turf type field and Chris has a molded cleat which is exceptional for these conditions.
The only thing with these is once they start breaking off on the bottom as the shoe gets older, you run the risk of turning an ankle or doing something on an uneven surface. So, this is good but you really wanna be careful what you’re doing.
These, on the other hand, are screw-ins and these are replaceable, so the shoe the doesn’t necessarily have to go once the bottom does. And they screw out easily and in and out. The other thing that you really need to be careful with is the cleat length.
You wanna make that in extremely bad conditions, extremely sloppy and bad footing, you go to a longer cleat. Anytime you go to a longer cleat, you do run the risk of catching your ankle, catching a knee, having bad injuries due to your foot not being able to free itself – whether you’re running and cutting or just being tackled. So make sure you’re careful when you’re selecting your cleat for the conditions of the game.
