A firm-ground soccer player cleat is usually made from molded steel studs in a blade-like form. The studs can usually be removed. Firm ground soccer socks are not recommended for artificial turf fields. However, they can be used on hard surface fields. Firm ground cleats should be used only on natural grass. The studs too short for synthetic turf make them unsuitable for use. There are some brands that make firm ground soccer shoes with bladed spikes to be used on firm grass surfaces.

Cleats for mid-profile

One of the most popular styles is the mid-profile soccer shoe. This style suits players with wide feet and offers excellent traction on a field. They are lightweight and strong. Many mid-profile soccer shoes have an insole that can be adjusted to fit the foot. There are many styles, with different materials depending on the player's feet.


Another type of soccer cleat is called the low-profile version. These soccer boots are designed for patchy grass and have conical-shaped studs. These are also popular as backup soccer cleats and training shoes. Mid-profile soccer cleats offer additional protection but limit your motion range. Forward players prefer lower-profile models.
