Boys' Football Boots(73)

Since we launched our first pair of footie boots back in the 1970s, we've been committed to helping players everywhere enjoy the beautiful game. Today, our Nike boys' football boots help the next generation of football lovers to perform at their best. Whether you're raising a school team superstar, a dedicated weekend leaguer or a future Academy hopeful, our boys' football trainers give him the support he needs to hone his skills and reach his goals.

Perform in any conditions

From afterschool kickabouts at the playground to must-win weekend matches—a great footie performance is built from the ground up. Our boys' football boots come in a choice of outsole styles to suit the surface he'll be playing on. Grippy studs give him the confidence he needs to run, stop, turn and pivot on natural grass, while specialist low-profile studs are perfect for artificial pitches. If he's training indoors, look for textured tread patterns that provide essential traction without damaging the floor.

Protect his joints and muscles

Because their bodies are still growing and developing, supportive footwear is especially important for young athletes. We craft our Nike football shoes for boys with soft yet durable inner soles that soak up the impact of each strike, turn, leap and landing, so he can train with confidence. Look for Nike Air units that provide lightweight padding with a springy, responsive feel. You'll also find pairs with cushioning around the heel and ankle to make the break-in process easy and help reduce the risk of chafing and blisters.

The power of movement

We make our boys' football boots in a choice of upper shapes to suit his preference and playing style. Sock-boot styles hug close to his foot and ankle for a second-skin feel. If he prefers a more minimal fit, opt for low-profile football boots that ensure maximum freedom to move. Breathable mesh inserts provide added ventilation so he stays cool and focused for longer, while stretch panels give extra flexibility where he needs it. And because young players can be tough on their footwear, we use hardwearing materials, such as real and synthetic leather, that are made to take plenty of on-pitch action.

Small touches, big difference

A great sporting performance is all about fine margins, so our Nike boys' footie boots are made with obsessive attention to detail. Like stretchy inners and pull-tabs on our sock-boots, so they're quick and easy to put on and take off, and criss-cross straps that provide a secure yet flexible feel around his foot. You'll also find asymmetric lacing that gives a clean strike zone for accurate passing and deadly kicks. And look out for finely textured uppers that help him improve his ball control when dribbling.

The future of sport

It's never been more important to protect the health of our planet. We created Nike's Move to Zero programme with a single, simple aim: to move our company to net-zero carbon emissions and net-zero waste. As part of this commitment, wherever possible, we make our footie boots using recycled fabrics. We haven't hit our target yet, but we're on our way.
