Picking Out A Nike Football Cleat

Choosing a football cleat used to be a pretty easy endeavor. Just choose the color and style you liked. Every shoe was leather, so that was it.

However, times have changed. There are many Nike football cleats from which to choose. The selection available is varied, which can be daunting. However, you get to choose the exact shoe for you.

What style is yours?

If you are a lineman, then high-tops might be your choice. These give more support to the ankle, especially when moving laterally. These will support a lineman's ankles much better than a lower cut.

For skill players, however, low-top cleats have usually been the choice. As a DB, RB, WR, or QB, speed and quickness are more important. Low-tops weigh less and allow you to be more agile with your cuts, stops, and starts.

An addition to these two traditional styles is the mid-cut. Usually favored more by skill-position players, these still allow for that freedom of agility. What is offers above low-cuts, though, is more support for the ankle.

What type of cleat is better for you?

Molded cleats are steadfastly attached to the bottom of the shoe. The shoe has more traction and springiness on harder surfaces.

Detachable cleats are usually more expensive. However, they are more flexible. These shoes use studs that can be taken off and replaced whenever playing or weather conditions warrant.

Which material suits you?

Leather uppers are more traditional. They have good breathability and flexibility, which gives the shoe outstanding comfort. They are also extremely durable.

Synthetics, while being less expensive, are not as durable as leather shoes. They also have less breathability than a leather shoe does.

Nike makes more than 20 different styles for men and boys. The prices for men range anywhere from $80-140 or more. For boys, prices start at $40.

Whatever your skill level or age, Nike's range of styles is wide - more than 25 different styles are to be found on Nike.com. You can choose from the Air Zoom Super Speed, Zoom Flyposite, and Vapor Jet to the Land Shark, Zoom Boss, and Zoom Super Bad.

And a very good component of any Nike shoe is that you can create what you like using Nike.com's NIKEiD application. While not available for every football cleat, it can still be used on a wide variety of shoes.

While not available with every football cleat, it's available on enough of their selections. Accordingly, you can create what you want to suit your style while still remaining within the concept of the team, as well.
