At the foundation of the Harper 11 is a first-of-its-kind traction plate that is wider than a traditional baseball cleat, delivering enhanced stability, comfort and ground feel. Strategic cutouts allow the plate to move naturally with the athlete’s foot, while additional ground contact points help distribute pressure more evenly over time and provide comfort across multiple playing surfaces, including turf.

 

The upper combines a full knit compression sleeve with breathable TPU mesh construction to create a seamless fit that balances airflow, flexibility and support, while integrated lace storage helps keep laces secure during play.

 

One of the cleat’s defining features is its signature impact cage, which serves as both a performance innovation and distinctive design feature. A molded gel insert provides lightweight impact protection, while the toe-box outline forms both a heart and a baseball field, representing Harper’s love for the game and the city he calls home. Directional points throughout the cage symbolize the people who help guide his life, including members of his family.
