Compatibility

Compatible with select cleats for football, soccer, lacrosse, baseball, softball, rugby, and ultimate frisbee. Please note that Tidal 3D™ Elite is not currently compatible with all cleat stud styles, and will wear prematurely with certain styles. Please take our size quiz to confirm that your cleats are compatible.

Design

• Lightweight lattice in place of solid material allows for a reduction in guard weight, keeping your stride light
• Strategic support strips increase durability in high-degradation regions
• Tough tread underfoot improves guard durability
• Compressible cleatbed reduces cleat stud pressure
• Adjustable straps work with cleats of different heights and widths within the same length profile
• Contouring wave design provides a seamlessly flush but comfortable fit around different cleat silhouettes
• Heel step tab allows for easier removal once the strap is detached
• 100% 3D printed with 40% bio-based elastomeric polyurethane. Learn more.

Additional Specs

• Single guard weight: 8.4oz (size H11.5)

*Please note that due to the mixing technique used to make our Calcite Hex color, subtle color variations from pair to pair may be present.

For your convenience, your cleat guards and straps will come preassembled according to the following instructions.

STEP ONE

Place your guards on the ground, and use your hands to open each side outwards. Step into your guards with your cleats on, sliding your toe under the toe of the cleat guard, and then step firmly down into the heel.

STEP TWO

Attach the free edge of the strap to the button on the lateral (outer) side of each guard. This side of the strap is meant to be used each time you wear your guards.

ADJUSTING YOUR FIT

If you find that the strap is too tight or too loose around your cleats, take your cleats off and leave your guards on them. Adjust the attachment on the medial (inner) side of your guards up or down accordingly to customize your fit.

The strap should slide easily back and forth through the medial slot once detached, even with your cleats in your guards, allowing you to see and select the best setting more easily.

This attachment is only meant to be adjusted when you're finding the right fit for your cleats, and shouldn't require frequent adjustments. For this reason, we've intentionally made it harder to attach and detach the strap from this side.

Once you've made the appropriate adjustment, return to steps one and two to check your fit.

Your cleat guards are meant to sustain the wear and tear that would usually damage your cleats, so inevitably they will wear down over time.

To keep them in good condition for as long as possible:

• Walk (do not run or jog) in your cleat guards, as running will increase degradation in high pressure regions and may result in premature wear
• Take your cleats out of your guards after use, and keep your guards out of extreme heat or freezing cold temperatures.
• Please note that due to the light-sensitive nature of the material, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat may result in discoloration.
• For easy cleaning, submerge your guards in room temperature soapy water, shake, and rinse thoroughly.
