Soccer Shoes
Soccer shoes are designed to suit many different purposes
and styles of play. The most commonly purchased types are molded cleats,
which are excellent for beginner or intermediate players. Detachable
cleats are better suited for advanced players.
Other styles of soccer shoes may be designed specifically for playing
either indoors or outdoors and on artificial turf as opposed to grass.
Indoor shoes have flat, rubbery bottoms for better traction on floors.
Turf shoes have raised patterns rather than studs and work well with
harder surfaces in general.
Many players benefit from purchasing soccer sandals along with soccer
shoes. These are designed to slip on easily over soccer socks and shin
guards. The benefit of these sandals is that they save wear to the actual
playing shoes. Many also include massage design for better comfort before
and after play.
