“Hi, my name is Otis St. Clare and I’m here today to talk to you about how to choose football cleats.
Now, with the number of different shoe companies out there like Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Under Armour; you’ve got a lot of different choices on how to pick your football cleats.
Now also one thing that’s going to go into your choice is the type of turf you’re playing on.
You have a synthetic turf, and than you have natural turf. It also depends on the type of weather conditions that you have.
This type of turf right here obviously is a Nike and it’s called a molded cleat which you can use on synthetic turf or natural turf.
It’s better used in dry conditions, uh you know, if it’s muddy out you don’t wanna wear this cleat because the grip or your traction is not that good.
The second type of cleat that we’ll be looking at is what’s called a screw-in cleat.
These can be changed once they wear too low like these are. You can change the length and size of the cleat so that you get better traction in bad conditions.
So, those are basically the two types of cleats that you can have to choose from.
A screw-in cleat or a molded cleat. I prefer Nike. Some prefer Adidas, some prefer Reebok.
That’s just Otis. That’s who I am and that’s how you choose your football cleats.”
