Good question my dd asked that too. I feel like she’s not ready for them. I’m nervous about her getting injured if the spikes dig in at the wrong time. Don’t know though
My dd opted for metal. However, kept her non metal for middle school. Metal not allowed. It’s preference. Ringor has both and turf pitching shoes as well. All held up great. Her non metal has 2 years on them. Other than cleat where they are good to go.

DD runs through about 4 pair a year. If you don't mind I would like to add on to your ?. My DD is also 13 and will start 14U next year and can use metal for the first time but a lot of girls in our area don't like pitching in metal cleats, Do you buy metal for pitchers?
