Here are brief details of some of our spikes. They are categorised by stability: middle & long distance, sprint, and cross country, or you can go to the full listing by brand. Sprint spikes can be used up to 400m, above that you need middle/long distance spikes, these are suitable for all distance events and interval/repetition based track training, most are also suitable for cross country, unless otherwise stated, but will need a longer spike to give better grip. Specialist cross country spikes differ from track spikes in that they have: a more rugged outsole for better grip
a flexible spike plate gives a better footstrike on rough ground and prevents a spike plate from shattering on sharp stones, a slightly more durable, and in some cases water resistant, upper to cope with the challenges of the best of traditional British cross country courses.For further advice on choosing spikes please refer to our Top Tips. All are available in half sizes, and the sizes listed are all UK sizes.
