With a new baseball season right around the corner adidas Baseball unveils a new cleat. Reengineered and redesigned for baseball’s fastest players, the 2017 adizero Afterburner takes the baseball cleat silhouette to the next level by incorporating a sneaker profile and redefining fit, feel and lightweight construction.
The all-new 2017 adizero Afterburner weighs in at 9.5 oz making it the lightest cleat in the game. This cleat comes with a new TECHFIT breathable, compression bootie that allows for flexibility and movement through the ankle. Another great feature is an articulated heel that helps deliver a lockdown sensation that makes the cleat feel like an extension of the foot for multidirectional movement and control.
As for the upper, it is engineered with a lightweight, seamless SPRINTSKIN upper with zoned support and a reinforced abrasion toecap to help provide structure for lateral movements and sprints between the bases. Additionally, a textured, stripped down heel panel is designed to keep the weight of the cleat towards the ball of the foot for maximum acceleration. Worried about comfort? Then don’t because the 2017 adizero Afterburner comes equipped with a full-length LITESTRIKE EVA midsole for increased cushioning and comfort.
If you’re interested in picking up a pair then you can do so at adidas.com and other select retailers beginning on March 27th. Retail will be $100.
