adidas Howzat Junior Cricket Spikes

At the crease, in the field or on your run-up, these juniors' Howzat Spike 20 cricket shoes put you in charge. Your feet will stay cool from the first ball to stumps thanks to a breathable mesh upper. The mid-cut design adds stability while cushioning absorbs pressure from the seven-spike outsole.

Breathable Mesh Upper

The upper of the Howzat Junior cricket spikes has been created with an open mesh fabric that encases each foot in breathable comfort. The mesh allows air to permeate the entire upper providing a constant supply of cool, fresh air while simultaneously forcing out hot, muggy air. This keeps your little one's feet cool and comfortable, offering a perfect microclimate for young feet to thrive in, even when their game heats up. In addition, the upper offers synthetic overlays where durability and structure come into play. The overlay system protects the feet from bumps and scrapes reducing the risk of injury while increasing the durability for a longer-lasting shoe. Not only this but they also add structure and support when combined with the lacing system. The combination reduces movement inside the shoe and supports the ankle keeping when running along the crease or on the field. Further increasing support the upper of the spikes is a mid-cut design that helps to stop the ankle from rolling. Finishing the spikes is a traditional lacing system that locks down the midfoot and reduces in-shoe slippage.

Adiprene Midsole

Equipped with an Adiprene midsole, the Howzat Junior Spikes provide extreme cushioning for vulnerable and young feet. To provide cushioning Adiprene has a high degree of impact absorption which is claimed to absorb up to 5 times a person's body weight, making the shoes ideal for children. The majority of Adiprene's impact protection is located in the heel where the most pressure and shock run through, with a smaller amount in the forefoot. The material in the forefoot is more responsive, due to the need to provide an energised push-off, allowing your child to be explosive off the mark. The rest of the midsole has been made with EVA foam and provides significant cushioning and comfort to help improve the level of your child's performance so they can play at their optimum level, for longer. Holding excellent cushioning abilities, the foam absorbs shocks and provides resilient cushioning reducing the risks of potential injury

TPU Outsole

Featuring a TPU outsole, the Howzat ensures much-needed stability and traction at a reduced weight. This construction allows your child to get the runs in while feeling light and fast. The outsole offers 7 spikes that provide additional traction when the pitches are a little soft, keeping the explosiveness no matter what.
