Adidas 22YDS Cricket Shoe
Overview
The Adidas 22YDS Cricket Shoe is purpose-built for the modern batsman who demands agility, grip, and enduring comfort at the crease. Designed for players who thrive on rapid footwork and sharp directional changes, the 22YDS delivers a low-to-ground feel that enhances responsiveness -- making it ideal for quick singles, fast pivots, and extended time in the middle. Its lightweight yet supportive construction also makes it an excellent option for fielding sessions and indoor or hard-wicket training.
Design and Materials
The 22YDS combines a supportive forefoot upper for multi-directional movement with an open midfoot and heel design for enhanced breathability and weight reduction. The inlay features an adiPRENE-lined insole that helps reduce joint stress by absorbing impact shock, while the compression-moulded EVA midsole offers lightweight cushioning throughout. Underfoot, the full rubber Traxion outsole provides excellent grip for hard pitches and net training. A TORSION system with CLIMACOOL vents bridges the midfoot for added support and breathability where it matters most.
