Cricket batting spikes from one8, co-created with Virat Kohli and built for the Indian game. The Cover Drive 18 leads the range, in two builds for two formats, so you can match the shoe to the way you actually bat.
The tech that holds the crease
Sonic Grip bites into the pitch through a pivot, and Sonic Foam keeps your feet fresh over a long stay at the wicket. Ghillie lacing and the PWR plus LCK system lock the shoe down through a shot, while the Functional Boom shank steadies the midfoot when you push off.
Pro or X
The Cover Drive 18 Pro suits the longer formats and players who live on their footwork and balance. The X is built for the fast, lateral T20 game, where you cover ground in a hurry and need the shoe to keep up.
Built on real feedback
Designing in India keeps a short line between the people making the gear and the people using it. The fit, the fabric and the finish are shaped by how athletes here actually train, not by a guess made somewhere cooler and calmer.
