I have always liked the new balance plate shoe. Great protection and looks very professional. Very easy to clean. Very durable.

I love my plate shoes, only thing is that I feel my heel easily slips out no matter how hard I tie them. I plan to upgrade to the New Balance mid cut shoe.

I typically call younger age games and developed a tendency to pull my feet a lot on pitches coming at me; and my feet have been battered and bruised. I wore my New Balance plate shoes for the first time and didn’t feel a thing when the ball hit my foot. A great investment that I am glad I finally made.
