  • How do pro football player choose their new football boots? And what can YOU learn from them? In today's video, we've asked Will John, who's a professional footballer, to give us some insights from how pros choose their boots. Normally, we've got JayMike talking boots, but while Will knows absolutely nothing about how the boots are made, he knows what he's looking for - so if you're wondering what pro players are looking for when they choose new football boots, this is a great video to watch!

    Very few pro's actually choose their own boots, they have sponsor who decide whioch model the player gets to wear.
    The player then gets a custom fit and maybe some customisation (this varies depending on player and status within the brand).
    When choosing your boot look for:
    1. Correct playing surface
    2. Sizing, Fit & Comfort
    Everything else is up to personal preference and will only trivially impact your actual performance.

    I think 1 more important detail to add to the "who plays the same style of football" is top tier pros are getting paid to use some specific boots. I love my mercs but I'll happily use phantoms or tiempos for millions of bucks. Even for much less money :D

    I remember in about 2006/07 they decided to put covers over the laces on the mercurials v's they did look nicer but didn't do much in terms of touch or feel, now they have laceless boots which I've never gone too. Can't imagine boots without laces, it's probably beneficial for goalies.

    Ronaldinho wore nike tiempo's, known as a control touch boot however he was fast & strong (with a great touch). I think the whole speed boot is a marketing tool as there is really only 50/70 grams difference per boot, thats not going to make a measurable difference in performance, either you are fast or you are not! Play the boots with the correct studs for weather that are the most comfy 🤷‍♂️

    I use to wear old skool boots for 11aside, Copas or Kaiser 5's but with our crap British weather it effects your grip on the surface, so I use them on 3g now, I know you can get them modified so they have metal studs also but I think they cost a fortune.

    If you are fast then get a boot with stud pattern that allows you to run fast.
    If you are agile then get a boot that has a wider stud pattern so that you have lateral stability.

      There are so many models. A lot of players like Nike Mercurial or Adidas Predator, but it depends on your budget and your level of play. And the surfaces you play on.

Also remember your intention should be to playing the match and try to give it your all. Your job isn't to look pretty for every guy on the field. Comfort first looks last.
