Why are we distinctive when it comes to comfort?
In the world of cricket, performance and comfort are paramount, our cricket shoes stand out as a game-changer. Through meticulous design and innovative technology, our expertly created cricket shoes focus on enhancing the comfort of cricketers around the world. Today we will explore the unique features of our cricket shoes, the ID1, particularly the thickened insoles, advanced heel cushioning, and wide toe box, which collectively contribute to an unparalleled level of comfort and performance.
Plush Insoles
At the heart of our cricket shoe lies our thickened insole technology. We understand that every step, run, and jump on the cricket field requires optimal shock absorption and force redistribution. Our thickened insoles not only provide exceptional cushioning but also offer customised support for the unique biomechanics of each player.
The insoles act as a shield against the impact of rapid movements, reducing the strain on the feet and lower limbs. The enhanced arch and heel support ensures that players maintain balance and weight distribution, promoting stability during critical moments in the game. Our commitment to comfort is evident in the thoughtful engineering of these insoles, providing a foundation for improved performance and reduced risk of fatigue- and stress-related injuries.
Advanced Heel Cushioning
Our cricket shoes take heel comfort to the next level with advanced heel cushioning technology. Recognising the pivotal role the heel plays in a cricketer's movements, we have integrated specialised cushioning to absorb friction forces to reduce blisters and excessive rubbing.
This feature is particularly beneficial for highly dynamic movements, something that every cricketer in any role requires from bowlers to batters to keepers! By minimising the impact on the heel, our cricket shoes empower players to execute dynamic movements with confidence. Heel-related discomfort is mitigated, allowing players to focus on their game without any hindrance.
Spacious Toe Box
Our commitment to comfort extends to the toes with the incorporation of a wide toe box in our cricket shoes. Unlike traditional designs with narrow toe boxes, our shoes provide ample room for the toes to expand naturally. This innovation eliminates the discomfort associated with cramped toes during prolonged play to reduce bunions and blisters.
A wide toe box not only enhances comfort but also addresses the diverse anatomies of athletes. Our cricket shoes are inclusive, accommodating players with broader feet and ensuring a comfortable fit for everyone. By prioritising toe comfort, we aim to enhance the overall well-being of players, fostering a distraction-free and enjoyable playing experience.
Width of the toe box also allows for an increased base of support of the foot within our cricket shoe. Allowing your foot to expand properly, increases the surface area contact of the foot on the sole of our shoe allowing lower limb extremity stability to be vastly enhanced when delivering high amounts of force. This not only improves the base of support for stability reasons of your foot and ankle, but also improves proprioception, or in simple terms: the ability for your body to understand where it is in motion and space. Improving proprioception allows you as the athlete to have enhanced feeling of your foot in the shoe in any movement for greater force output and accuracy of force distribution.
Lite-Knit Material Technology
Introducing our Liteknit fibre, a feather-light and breathable fabric that elevates the overall design of our cricket shoes. Liteknit technology ensures a snug yet flexible fit, allowing the shoes to conform to the natural movements of the foot. The breathable nature of Liteknit material enhances ventilation, keeping the feet cool and comfortable even during intense play on the hottest of days and surfaces.
Liteknit's lightweight properties contribute to the overall agility of the player, providing a seamless and unrestrictive experience on the field in any movement. The durable yet flexible nature of this material ensures that our cricket shoes are not only comfortable but also built to withstand the rigours of the game.
