Looking for recommendations for shoes for my daughter to practice inside and on a driveway mat. Or do I just plan to keep buying crappy shoes that wear out at the toe every month or so?
I like Ringor turfs with the pitching toe. You can also buy a Tuff Toe and glue it onto an existing athletic shoe. I've heard that covering the area with Shoe Goo works, but don't know how long it will last.
For practice on turf or mat over asphalt or concrete we use sneakers with shoe goo. Depending on the makeup of the mat, we used to have to reapply shoe goo after every session. But new facility she has been training in does not wear as much and we have not had to reapply. For indoor fielding work you might want real turf trainers, but for pitching the regular sneakers with shoe goo are perfect.
