      Start your search. The first step to making your own softball cleats is to land a brand--or more accurately, choose which company you prefer to use.

      Measure your feet. Once you select the brand you will use to make your softball cleats, it's always a good idea to measure your feet in that particular brand. That's because different companies tend to size their shoes differently, and the last thing you want is a pair of softball cleats that don't fit properly. Since most people don't possess the equipment needed to measure their own feet, a good way to accomplish the task is to have it done by a professional at your local sporting goods store.

      Customize your cleats. Regardless of the company you chose, the process of making your softball cleats is likely to be the same. Almost all brands allow to chose from a wide array of styles and colors, and give you the ability to color different sections of the shoe. For instance, once you are online and pick a style, click on a particular section of the cleat. A list of available colors will pop up. Choose a color and move on to the next phase. Repeat the process until each section of the shoe is colored to your liking. If you finish your shoe and don't care for the way it looks, you can always go back and start over.
