Just to reiterate: that dang ball is just as hard at lower levels, and the catchers don't always do their job.
I would also echo the "try stuff on" suggestion; I have oddly shaped feet, and I have a terrible time getting shoes that fit anyway, and plate shoes are worse.
I'm another West Vest fan. I've gotten comments because of wearing it to low-level softball games, but that ball ain't soft, and I've also seen a collarbone broken in those games.
