My Soccer Boots Are Too Big

If you re trying on sneakers or dress shoes the first tell is in the laces.

My soccer boots are too big. They fill in the extra space at the toe heel or sides of your foot. I finally just started wearing these really thick socks under my soccer socks. Double socking is fine but it sounds like your cleats are still too big to make that work. I did that for a year with one of my pairs of boots and i found that my touch didn t suffer but anything that required power like crosses and shots were waaay less accurate than i was used.

Lower and upper heel area this will normally happen if cleats either fit too big or too tight for you. The easiest way to tell if shoes are too big is to try them on and walk around the store. It s been working pretty well but of course it s winter right now in the summer there is no way i ll be able to wear two pairs of socks. The reason why you want a tight fit is to ensure an optimal touch and feel on the ball.

My left foot feels like the perfect amount of toe room. Out of the box fit is pretty important which is why in my recommended soccer cleats page all boots offer a great fit when brand new. Those thick comfy socks that keep your feet warm may also be the solution for boots that feel too roomy. The 11 5d seems better.

If your feet are only comfortable when you pull the laces extra tight the shoes are likely too wide for you. I swapped my football. The choice of insoles when your boots are too big will depend on the amount of space in the boots. But there shouldn t be any damage to your boot by following this method.

If it s just a little then a thinner insole like the samurai will suit. A soccer cleat should fit tight so your standard shoe size may not transfer directly. If you have a lot of space to fill a thicker option like the timberland would be better. For example you may wear a size 8 in a running shoe but you may need to size down to a 7 5 in a soccer cleat.

1 point 5 years ago. The right foot has the left corner of my big toe slightly rubbing against the front curve of the toebox. It s best not to repeat this too many times over the life of the soccer boot. Pull on a decorative over the knee version if you re wearing tall boots.

4 use good quality socks. The 12d need insoles and think socks to fill up room so my feet don t feel like bells ringing and tons of heel slip. Tall thick socks can take up the space between a wide boot shaft and thin calves. On a brannock i am 12.
