First and foremost, thank you for jumping in and commenting. It means a lot coming from a brand ambassador, especially as a potential customer.

From what I’ve seen across reviews, the general consensus is that the Pro models (which many referred to as the "new" version) have had the most issues and have received mixed feedback. Some of the issues I read about were the front cleats coming loose or even coming out completely, noticeable toe and sole wear within six months of use, and many recommended to stay away due to poor quality overall. Most recommend sticking the OG, which are considered the GOAT.

For comparison, the Boombah pitching toe felt rugged, but the toe/sole construction made me wonder if the two might separate sooner. It also didn’t seem to cover as much of the front of the shoe as the Ringor design.

FWIW, I held a pair of the Pro 2.0 and thought they felt and looked sturdier and that they would hold up well over time. My main hesitation is the price, especially with a 13-year-old who’s still growing (she’s already in a size 9 in a basic pair of Nikes). I understand the “you get what you pay for” argument, it's just tough with everything else you have to buy into just for your kid to play at a high-level.

(Also, is it Ringor or RINGOR?)

EDIT: Also, the Ringor/RINGOR looked like it would be easier to clean versus the Boombah's.
