I use the Honig Single Bar, and have for about 5 years.

I also use the GD Patents, and can't complain about the weight. I used the old Honig's low cut, and the GD's are lighter than those. Other's consider the GD's "heavy", but I have nothing but the Honigs as a reference.

I had a catcher step flush on top of my shoe yesterday and put a big cleat cut in my GD's. So, I am thinking of going with the New Balance. Unless there is a way to fix the cleat cut? Any suggestions.

I don't have currenlty, but I think my next plate shoe will be Tanel 360, based on what I have heard and read from others.

Single bar lightweight mask (K91) from Honigs has served me well and I have no reason to change.

I use Honigs single bar traditional face mask and like it very well.
Purchased a pair of "Dickies" brand steel toe shoes ($38.00) and instep protectors from Spot Bilt ($10.00). Works well for me and shoes maintain a high "shine". Needed to apply velcro strip on shoe to attach instep protectors.
