Batting, fielding or bowling, these Howzat Spike 20 cricket shoes keep you in control. A mesh upper cools you during long stints in the field while a cushioned midsole softens every step. The midfoot strap and mid-cut design combine to stabilise your stance for every reverse sweep and diving catch.
Synthetic Mesh Upper
The adidas Howzat Cricket Spikes have been created with a synthetic mesh upper that offers breathability and ventilation to keep your feet cool and dry. The mesh promotes effective moisture management by wicking away the build-up of excess sweat and moisture to leave you cool, dry and comfortable. In addition, the open mesh encourages cool air to circulate and creates a drier, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. The upper of the spike is also extremely lightweight which improves performance by minimising the bulk and maximising comfort. Textile lining keeps your feet secure when in the shoe. A padded tongue furthers the comfort and helps to guard against friction and irritation such as chafing. The traditional lacing system and elasticated midfoot strap offer a locked-in feel and reduced movement inside the shoe.
adiPRENE+ and EVA MidsoleLocated in the heel of the midsole is adidas' signature adiPRENE technology which delivers exceptional cushioning and comfort. As well as providing comfort, the midsole enhances shock absorption properties to reduce the impact placed upon your joints. This is ideal for bowlers running in and minimising gradual wear and tear or for batsmen constructing an innings, especially in a long match. The majority of adiPRENE's impact protection is located in the heel, with a smaller amount in the forefoot. The material found in the forefoot is more responsive, due to the need to provide an energised push-off. This helps to maximise propulsion and deliver efficiency to keep you in control. The rest of the midsole has been created using EVA foam, which provides significant cushioning and comfort to help improve the level of your performance so you can play at your optimum level, for longer. Holding excellent cushioning abilities, the midsole absorbs shocks and provides resilient cushioning reducing the risks of potential injury.
TPU OutsoleOptimal grip and traction are provided by the seven spikes, TPU outsole, to deliver a firm and assured footing, particularly on early season pitches when the weather is not as conducive as the peak of the season. Having the extra grip and traction will enhance confidence with an outsole you can truly rely on. All this is provided at a much lighter weight to eradicate the bulk and improve your performance.
