Cleat guides

Metal or molded by league, youth sizing, and wide feet.

• Are metal cleats allowed in youth baseball?Generally not: players wear molded cleats through 12, and metal comes in from 13U where the league allows it, so check the league before buying metal.
• Do youth baseball cleats run small?Buyers report that some youth cleats run about a half size small, so try the half size up when your player is between sizes.
• What baseball cleats fit wide feet?New Balance is the maker that states widths on baseball cleats: Standard D and Wide 2E.

Each guide answers first, then shows the rules and sources it rests on.
