Would orthotics work? You might be able to get some that will work in all shoes.
ask and work hard
Baseball cleats have toes and soccer cleats don't
incorrect. They are very similar, but not quite the same. I have used soccer cleats to play softball with, so they will work, but I prefer the softball cleats. They have the toe spike and give you more support around the ankle.
For youth Baseball it probably doesn't make that much difference, but for adult baseball (high school ball and higher), metal baseball cleats are allowed and are more effective than plastic football cleats. Plus, they don't wear down as easily.
Early cleats were the men's leather, ankle high, work boots that often had a steel-toe cap. People hammered metal tacks or studs on the bottom of their shoes to provide more gripping power. There was a gradual movement to lighter weight shoes with fewer cleats. These cleats had rounded edges.
Footballers wear cleats, shoes with studs on the bottom to get a good grip in the wet soil.
Well, you should probably not use metal cleats. The soccer referees won't allow metal cleats. Just check out Adidas cleats online or Nike and they should have the kind you need. That's what I have for soccer.
A lacrosse shoe is very similar to a football cleat, but has a different cleat shape to promote speed. They are often lighter than other types of cleats.
As a DB and WR I can only say I'm faster with screw on cleats ;)
There are three main types of cleats available for sports shoes: metal cleats, molded cleats, and turf cleats. Metal cleats provide excellent traction on soft ground, molded cleats are versatile and suitable for various surfaces, and turf cleats are designed for artificial turf surfaces.
