The best football boots for artificial turf: children's version
As parents, we want the best for our young soccer players. Choosing the right soccer cleats not only improves their performance, but is also crucial for preventing potential injuries. At Proteckthor, sports safety experts, we've prepared this guide to help you choose the best soccer cleats for artificial turf.
Before delving into specific models, we must keep in mind that there are many types of soles on soccer cleats. When it comes to artificial turf, we must consider two main types:
AG Tacos (Artificial Grass)
✅ 15-25 tacos
✅ Rounded shape
✅ Perfect for new fields
✅ Better pressure distribution
Multi-tacos
✅ 20-30 small tacos
✅ Ideal for worn fields
✅ Greater stability and security
✅ Even weight distribution
❌ Important! Avoid FG (Firm Ground) cleats on artificial turf, as they are designed for natural grass and can increase the risk of injury.

Complementary Equipment: Beyond Football Boots
Socks
Socks aren't just a cosmetic accessory. They're a fundamental piece of equipment that serves multiple essential functions. They provide perfect support to keep shin guards in the correct position throughout the match, ensuring constant protection. They also play a crucial role in preventing blisters by reducing friction between the foot and the boot, thus reducing chafing.
Proteckthor
Your child's brain deserves the best protection, and at Proteckthor, we know it. Our revolutionary technology has been designed with safety in mind without compromising performance. Our studies show that our cranial protection reduces the force of head impacts by up to 93% , providing unparalleled peace of mind.
Its universal design fits any player perfectly, allowing them to maintain their level of play while protecting against head injuries from spikes. The ergonomic design ensures players can move freely and naturally, forgetting they're wearing protection.
3. Shin guards
Shin guards are also a non-negotiable element in modern football, and for good reason. They are a mandatory requirement for participating in official competitions, but beyond this, they provide effective protection against impacts, tackles, and accidental collisions.
Beyond the best football boots
Choosing the right boots is essential for the development and safety of young soccer players. Pair them with complete, quality equipment to not only prevent injuries but also give them the confidence to reach their full potential.
Choosing the right equipment goes beyond performance: it's an investment in the health and future of our young footballers. Combining good boots with comprehensive protection, like Proteckthor, is the best way to ensure they can enjoy the beautiful game safely and for a long time.
