You should have Zigged, not Zagged

They are still out.

And they are still quite comfortable and supportive.

State clinic will be at the end of July. Honig's usually shows up. I'll check it out.

The Magistrate line is not available everywhere. Some might still have some but none of the vendors in Texas, for example, have them except maybe in weird sizes.

OK, Zigs. Too much Gonzaga basketball, I guess!

Try eBay for the Field Magistrate. I had an early version I bought for $20 at a Reebok outlet. I can see why a U would like the TPU toe cap but they're a bit heavy to wear on the wing.

The Zig models were sold under the Vero turf trainer line as I recall. I bought the white bottom models when the state supervisor joined the 21st century and allowed white, then turned around and ordered the all black model when our RSO didn't follow suit

This summer I'm trying the Nike Lunar MVP Pro baseball trainer and its lighter general trainer cousin, the Nike Lunar Edge 15. Again, both probably have too much white to satisfy my RSO. The sole treads are very similar to the old Nike Air Diamond Anniversary, which was the first turf model I ever had.

The sole has some small spikes on them for traction and they look like they will work well for both grass and fieldturf.

Our crew went with the Nike 1.3 from Honig's and I love them. They are just wide enough for me and were pretty comfortable right out of the box.

I've worn them on both grass and turf so far and they worked well. I will probably still wear Adidas Turf Hogs for longer, wet grass.
