The football shoes have spikes or studs because the studs or spikes provides larger frictional force than normal shoes while running on the grass. The studs prevents player from slipping on the grass and help to run faster and change direction quickly without slipping.
Yes the sizing of Nike studs are universal across the Mercurial, Phantom and Tiempo boots , with them working with other brands too aside from adidas , they do not make their own TPU studs so you have to go to a third party to find plastic studs to add to Nike boots.
Do NOT wear boots with metal studs or metal blades. These will damage the surface. Also, boots with plastic blades are shown to increase the risk of knee and lower leg injury when used on a 4G surface.
The Best footwear is rubber or plastic moulded studded boots. Flat soled trainers are not recommended. Why do footballers even wear cleats while playing? Soft ground soleplates with metal studs are simply not designed with 3G pitches in mind. Whereas conical studs are better for adding grip and stability on slippery surfaces, blades on football boots are more suited to harder ground by providing more points of contact between the bottom of your foot and the ground over a larger surface area resulting in better traction.
Early bladed stud configurations posed some safety matters as the way they were built into the soleplate meant that if you tried to turn your foot when it was planted in the ground, it could have too much traction, imbedding itself into the ground and causing the famous ACL damage as the knee turned without the foot.

There are stud configurations that try and combine the benefits of both conical and bladed studs into one hybrid soleplate. These can be a combination of moulded conical and bladed studs or a mixture of screw in metal and rubber studs alongside fixed studs and blades.

This is where the line starts to get blurred. AG, FG? This is important because too much traction on artificial grass can cause injuries. Can you wear FG studs on AG turf? These football shoes are really useful for younger kids who may switch between indoor, sand-based Astroturf and firm grass pitches. Nike has their own AG stud pattern and whilst Adidas used to combine the two, they split them out and started making more AG specific boots like these gorgeous Adidas X Playing football in the UK makes us the most qualified people in the world to write about SG stud patterns since our football matches are pretty much mud baths from September to April.
Use these bad boys on soft natural mud… sorry grass. The main soft ground studs are metal and their length can change depending on the brand. Nike provides two lengths of studs that can be swapped out depending on just how wet the pitch is.
If only we could get a bit of that extra length. Think orange juice and coffee. Or the UK leaving the EU. C heck out our guide on rugby boots vs football boots to find out more about this the boots not Brexit.
A top tip of ours is to put a little bit of Vaseline on each new screw as you change them — we also do it to ours when they are brand new. This should really be after about a year but anyone who knows me will tell you that I seem to change mine much more often. Hi everyone, my name is Mitchell and I am addicted to football boots.
