Soccer Shoes Components

There are so many details to consider when purchasing soccer shoes: designs, colors, brands and models. And while that's important, it helps to first understand the components of a soccer cleat so that you can make the best decision based on your position and style of play. That said, let's dive into the various parts you should know:

• Upper - This material covers everything above the insole/midsole and generally comes in two options: leather or synthetic. Not only does it impact touch and ball control, but the design can make a huge difference in how you run.
• Insole - The inserts inside of the shoes that provide cushioning and grip for your foot.
• Midsole - A layered cushion between the inner and outer soles of a shoe designed to absorb shock.
• Outsole - The bottom part of the cleat that is usually made with a rubber or synthetic material.
• Heel counter - The bottom back portion of the shoe that provides support for the heel.
• Studs - These are the little nobs on the bottom of soccer cleats that provide traction on the field's surface.
