My DD wears moulded to pitch (Ringor) and metal to play other positions. She prefers metal but its an affordability thing. I'm not buying another pair of Ringors simply because she wants metal. Still lots of wear in them. I got the metal for a ridiculous price on line (Reebok Classic $18). She loves them. Problem is that she goes through regular shoes when pitching like you-know-what through a screen door so the Ringors carry on. This was her second year with the Ringors and they still have life left in them.
To the op (sorry for the Ringor sales pitch) all my players prefer metal. Have not seen any injuries related to metal vs moulded.
