So what are the good cleats these days? Metal, of course. Low or High? Low top or high top? Patterns - 9 spike? No NIKE - too narrow.Thanks

The good cleats are the ones that work well for you.
Well heck, Tex, I thought I'd ask someone in here so I don't have to go buy a dozen diff shoes to try....
Are your Branson Roper's a 9-cleat pattern???? 
I take my Nocona's in smooth elephant, thank you... Although the Luchese full quill ostrich is also a favorite.
does anyone know of a brand of cleats that the toe of the cleat doesn't get torn up? or a way to prevent it?
We just bought a pair of UnderArmour cleats. They claim to have a "TPU abrasion resistant toe guard" for "maximum durability." We shall see...
I have Tanel Steel Cleats with a "toe gaurd"
Very, very durable and the shoes are great.
I've worn Nike, Addidas, UA, etc and these, are by far the most comfortable steel I've ever worn. I thought they looked a little funky at first.
But, after I wore them for one game I didn't care about the style points because my feet, ankles, knees, back, etc just felt better.
Here are some pics

adidas are some of the most comfortable and durable you can buy.
Ringor is also one of the finest pair of shoes, but you have to get them off their website.
I have a pair 10 1/2 Nike high top metal cleats I will sell for $25.00 plus shipping. You cannot find these cleats anywhere. A pitching toe can be easily glued on to these shoes. These shoes are brand new and have never been worn. A real bargain.
