Feedback on Ringor Cleats

What's on your mind?

by knobcreek » Sun Mar 08, 2009 8:00 pm

Has anyone's dd tried out the Diamond Gem Cleat from Ringor? I was wondering if the mesh is durable. I noticed that my dd has worn a hole in the leather where pro tec toe meets the leather.

My guess is that the cleat is lighter, anyone?


Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you softball GODS! :mrgreen:

My dd has two pair, one with metal spikes for High School and one with molded for Travel. She is only wearing the metal right now and LOVES them. She is a pitcher and also a lefty slapper so it works for her that they are MUCH lighter than the other Ringors she has worn.

For now she is the starting varsity pitcher at her school so she is getting innings and uses them 5 days a week at practices (when there are not games) and at pitching lessons once a week. They are holding up great. We have had them now for a month, so it is still to early to tell on the durability.

All I can say is she loves them.

If your daughter pitches, Ringors are definitely a good option. If not, there may be cheaper but still good alternatives

Does anyone know where you can buy a pair of Diamond Star w/ the protec toe (Black)? Ringor said they are in production and will not be available till May.

My daughter has a pair of playmakers and they have lasted twice as long as the mizunos. Her only criticism was the weight, so that is why we are trying to get the diamond stars.

Just ordered older dd a new set, shoes were still good, but she had wore down the cleats. Wish they had the interchangeable cleats.

She'll like them. My dd has both the molded and the spike. Although, she just told me yesterday that she doesn't like pitching with spikes. I told her to deal with it. :lol:

The younger, a freshman, has both as well, havent heard much of an issue about pitching with spikes, however she is pitching behind a junior and not getting a lot of circle time, so she is living at 3rd base. She is disappointed but thats what the coach thinks is best for the team.

That's too bad. My dd is also a freshman, but it looks like she gets the starting job. We have a young pitching staff. Last years starter was a freshman too. It will be good for my dd to get in the circle a lot for HS. She worked hard to get the spot and the coach is giving to the deserving player. She may lose it to the soph, but she is fighting hard.
