Checklist Soccer Shoes

Size
  • When buying soccer shoes, make sure you get the right size. Many models fall, depending on the brand, smaller or larger. Find out how the shoes turn out or try them on before buying.
  • Newly purchased soccer shoes should fit snugly, but not pinch. There should be room for a thumb between the toe of the shoe and the big toe.
  • If your foot does not fit tightly in the shoe, you will lose precision and the risk of blisters will increase.
  • The shoes should be breathable and comfortable.
Design
  • Many different manufacturers offer soccer shoes, the most famous being Adidas and Nike.
  • Soccer shoes are available in different colors and patterns.
Types
  • The most famous soccer shoe is the cleated shoe. Here there are studs under the sole, which provide additional grip . In addition to plastic cleats, there are also iron cleats, which give a better grip, but also increase the risk of injury to opponents.
  • A popular shoe for artificial turf pitches is the multinock shoe. Here, there are a number of small studs under the sole that do not penetrate the turf as deeply as normal studded shoes, but offer greater comfort.
  • For indoor courts, an indoor shoe without cleats is required. A light-colored sole is recommended so as not to cause streaks on the ground.

FAQ About Soccer Shoes

Soccer boots what size?

This is individually different and depends on your shoe size. If you already have a pair of shoes that fits you very well, you can use that as a guide. Alternatively, customer reviews in online stores can help, as they often report on how shoes from different manufacturers turn out.

Which soccer shoes should I buy?

Many different manufacturers offer soccer shoes. Choose a model in your size that fits you well and suits your taste. On this page we have collected the most popular and best models for you.

How do I find the perfect soccer shoe?

The easiest way is to try on a soccer shoe before buying it. Other options are to read reviews to see if soccer shoes run big or small.

How many cleats does a soccer shoe have?

The number of cleats varies. Most shoes have between 6 and 10 cleats. Shoes with iron cleats in particular often get by with fewer cleats, as they naturally provide a very good grip even on deep ground. Shoes with multinocks have a lot of small studs, which are sufficient for artificial turf, but not for most grass fields.

How should a soccer shoe fit?

In principle, a soccer shoe should fit snugly to ensure the necessary precision. However, if the foot causes pain while running, the shoe is too tight.

Most professionals have an outfitter contract with a sports brand and are obliged to wear this brand. Examples are soccer shoes from Nike, Adidas or Puma. Which shoe is ultimately worn is up to the choice of the professional.

Soccer shoes – how much space in the front?

A rule of thumb is that there should be a thumb’s width of space between the tip of the foot and the big toe.

Artificial turf – which soccer shoes?

Multinock shoes are particularly suitable for artificial turf pitches, as you don’t get as deep into the turf on an artificial turf pitch as you do on grass pitches. However, cleated shoes also work, but iron cleats should be avoided to protect the pitch.

Which soccer shoes for which surface?

Cleated shoes with plastic or iron cleats are suitable for grass fields. Artificial turf fields should be played on with multinocks and for indoor tournaments an indoor sole should be used.

Why do soccer shoes have cleats?

Cleats give soccer players the grip they need when turning quickly, so they don’t slip off even deep or wet turf.

Soccer shoes with socks – why?

Soccer cleats with socks are a great way for many soccer players to stabilize the ankle area.
