Cleaning Cleats
I have the Nike Swingman 3/4 molded cleats and I was wondering the bet way to clean them. It can be for any cleat in particular but I just need a way. I have tried disinfecting wipes but they haven't worked. I don't want anything where the cleats will have to dry because there is usually 1-2 nights a week I don't have baseball. Thanks in advance —Jake

Re: Bat Bag
go to bplowestprices.com, and also playatthebullpen.com the bullpen site is having a huge sale. They are out of stock on almost everything, but they have a few bags left, very good one for like 60 percent off. Take a look, I have an old Nike one, it carries my catchers gear, which is why I use it because it's big.

Re: Going to get a New Bat (need suggestions)
vexxums flex way too much. I would say either the exo, Nike Torque, or a Stiff Stealth.

whats the silver and red nike bat that some NC players had ??
Reply
Re: Going to get a New Bat (need suggestions)
The torque my hs team may have been a dud, Ihave had a few duds before, but since the nike rep gave it to our team for free, we didn't complain. The new ones may be better, but the old orange torques suck.
Reply
Re: Going to get a New Bat (need suggestions)
The red and silver ones are actually the Nike Aero Strobe. They are a little cheaper priced than the Torques. We have a couple of each on our team (Strobes and Torques), and the '07 Torques seem to have quite a bit of pop in them. We just got them, so I do not know about durability.
Reply
Re: Going to get a New Bat (need suggestions)
yeah, they are strobes, with MeC25 alloy instead of MeC35 found on torques. The 07 torques are same pattern as old orange ones, but they are blue instead of orange, but I personally wouldn't buy a 250 dollar nike bat. Buy last years model of a stealth or dynasty or something. Much better.

Yes the Aero Strobe..my bad calling it the torque.Who cares?? its a bat made by nike They STINK!! lol

Re: Going to get a New Bat (need suggestions)
nike should just stop making baseball equipment. The only good nike thing I've ever bought, is my equipment bag, but what annoys me is its too short to fit my 34 inch aluminum and my 33 wood bat, without having to almost rip it. They should stick to clothes and shoes.
Reply
Re: Going to get a New Bat (need suggestions)
Everyone has an opinion. We have had nothing, but good luck with Nike since we switched completely over to their products a couple of years ago. We use their shoes, bags, gloves, bats, clothes, everything. However, we get a very generous price on their products, so that helps. I can understand where it might be hard to spend $250 on a Nike bat over an Easton or Louisville.

Re: Going to get a New Bat (need suggestions)
Nike should not stop at all. Nike produces a lot of very high quality gloves. They are with out a doubt one of the best footwear producers in baseball. Have you ever used their batting gloves? The Diamond Elites are excellent batting gloves. Their batting helmets have to be the most confortable batting helmet I ever wore. I could keep going, but the bottom line is, Nike may not make good bats, but they defintly make a lot of other good baseball products.

Re: Going to get a New Bat (need suggestions)
I just think that all of their equipment is too over priced, considering you can get a more reliable glove for the same amount. Every nike glove I have seen, always breaks in in a week, fits perfect for about a month, then gets too floppy for good use. That is not the top of the line equipment, but everything else below that. I know I would not pay 250 bucks for a nike glove, when I can pay 150 for a HOH or A2000. Not that it is the worst equipment, it is just that I think they should stick...
