Frequently Asked Questions
Can I wear my athletic gear or do I have to wear football-specific apparel?
The clothing for football is different from other athletic wear. This is because it is specifically designed to enhance comfort and performance on the field. Jerseys and shorts are usually made of lightweight, breathable materials that allow for optimal airflow, reducing overheating and sweat build-up. The fit is also tailored to enable a full range of motion, which can improve your overall agility and response times during play.
How can I be sure that my football shoes are fitted correctly?
If you want to ensure that your football boot fits properly, it should not be too tight. It should allow some movement of the foot without causing the boot to slip. To avoid jamming your toes into the boot when you run or kick, there should be a space of about a finger’s width between the toes of the boot and the front. Consider the width of your foot and select a style that can accommodate narrow or large feet. Always try on boots with football socks and lace them up fully to assess the fit accurately.
What equipment is allowed in competitive football?
The rules of competitive football games often include specific equipment requirements to protect the players and ensure game integrity.

Can the selection of socks influence a soccer player’s performances?

How do you choose the right football boot for your playing surface?
You should choose the correct football boots depending on the type and surface of the pitch you will be playing. Metal studs are recommended for natural grass pitches (FG, firm ground), as they offer traction and stability. Boots with a flat sole or boots with many small rubber studs are ideal for artificial turf. They offer better grip, and can reduce injury risk. Indoor courts need non-marking rubber shoes to avoid damaging the surface and to provide adequate movement.
