For players experiencing back, knee or ankle pain during play, a turf shoe will provide relief by dispersing pressure over the entire foot. Unfortunately, turf shoes are virtually useless on a wet field. Grass sticks to the closely placed cleats thereby providing no traction whatsoever and creating a hazard for the player.
Soft Ground Shoes
