The best football boots for kids depend on both their playing style and the surfaces they’ll train and compete on.

For example, lightweight boots are ideal for positions that demand speed and agility, such as forwards and midfielders. Defenders or those who often play on muddy fields may benefit from switchable studs that adapt to soft or firm ground.

A slightly raised heel, like those featured in ASICS kids’ football boots, can help reduce stress on growing legs. Consider materials, as well: leather offers durability and a comfortable fit, while synthetics perform well in wet conditions.

Another important factor when choosing the right kids’ football boots is size. Here’s how to determine the best size of footy boots for your child:

• Measure both feet for length and width while they are standing, then try on boots that fit the larger foot.
• Leave about a thumb’s width of space at the toe to allow for movement and natural growth.
• Make sure the heel fits snugly to keep the foot securely in place.

A proper fit is essential for comfort, safety and performance, so avoid the temptation to buy bigger boots for your child to grow into.

ASICS kids’ football boots stand out because they’re designed with both young players and top athletes in mind. One key innovation is our heel-raise technology, which elevates the heel by 5mm or 10mm to shift weight slightly forward, helping reduce stress on growing legs during play.

Built for comfort, performance and durability, our kids’ footy boots feature cushioning in high-impact areas and support for developing feet, helping your child perform at their best while enjoying the game.
