The best football shoes on the market by Soccer1984
The best football shoes on the market offer leverage, speed and easy lateral movement. The following 10 models were identified as the best, based on recommendations from pro sports-equipment review sites such as MadeMen.com, Guide 2 Football Equipment and Galt's Football Cleat Reviews. Some of these shoes appear on multiple lists, while others rank among the publications' top choices. Adaptability, support, durability and other comfort and aesthetic features contributed to each list's choices.
Nike Speed TD
The lightweight, low-cut Nike Speed TD are made for skill position players. While these shoes lack ankle support, the Guide 2 Football Equipment reports that the shoes provide top-of-the-line traction on the field and allow players to change directions quickly without losing their footing. These were named one of the top three cleats by the Guide and ranked fifth on MadeMan's 10 Best Football Cleats list.
Reebok NFL Thorpe Mid D
The mid-ankle Thorpe Mid D provides support appropriate for all positions. Named one of the top three cleats by the Guide 2 Football Equipment, the Thorpe Mid D has impact-resistant cushioning and a thicker innersole to prevent pressure and shock from the soles of the feet. The shoe also comes equipped with detachable studs that can be changed based on field conditions.
Adidas Quickslant
With screw-in studs, the Adidas Quickslant is a mid-ankle shoe perfect for any position. The upper ankle is constructed from synthetic leather with a durable sole that is strong and lightweight.
Reebok NFL Pro Pump Burner Speed Low M3
The top cleat on MadeMan's list, the Reebok Pro Pump Burner Speed Low M3 is equipped with moisture-wicking liners and anti-microbial footbeds. The low-rise cleat and solid outsole allow skill position players to make lateral cuts and accelerate without being weighed down by a shoe.
Nike Super Speed
Nike's Super Speed cleats come in two cuts: low and three-quarter. Both models offer a seven-stud detachable cleat, mesh foam to provide support and keep the foot cool, and lightweight design for speed and agility. The three-quarter is spotlighted by Galt Internet Guides' football cleat reviews as one of the best high-top choices.
Adidas Scorch Thrill FieldTurf Low
Adidas manufactured the Scorch Thrill FieldTurf Low specifically for the synthetic grass fields. While synthetic grass looks and feels like grass, the rubberized texture requires a different type of cleat. The Scorch Thrill, which ranks seventh on the MadeMan list, features thermoplastic urethane studs to grip the surface and a non-slip interior lining for maximum stability.
Adidas TS-Reggie 3 Mid
One of the few mid-level cleats designed for speed and skill positions, the Adidas TS-Reggie 3 Mid is cut at ankle height for optimal support. Adidas employed its trademark FitFOAM material in the sole. It acts like a visco-elastic mattress, molding to the foot and provide thick cushioning to protect against shock.
Adidas Pro Intimidate
Another mid-level offering from Adidas, the Intimidate was cited by Galt for its durability and flexibility. It has a synthetic leather upper with a thermoplastic urethane outsole that absorbs impact and shock to the feet. The EVA midsole contours to the foot for comfort and agility.
Reebok NFL Electrify SD3
Galt calls the SD3 "One of the best mid-cut cleats you'll find." The outsole detaches from the shoe to prepare for all field types and conditions. The interior is equally as tuned, with a heel counter to provide balance and anti-friction liner to reduce slipping and increase comfort.
Adidas Adizero Scorch Low
Adidas' bestselling cleat Nike Soccer Cleat is also the industry's lightest. A synthetic poly plate on the sole is paired with a mesh body for an 8.6-oz. shoe. The Scorch is an extension of the Adizero brand into football from where it has been established in soccer, running and basketball.
