FOOTBALL BOOTS

Everyone plays the game their own way,
that’s what makes it beautiful. If you happen
to play it with flat feet, here are some boots
for that.

We’re all unique players. And that’s what

makes this game we all love, so interesting.
Sometimes those differences come in the
form of footballing ability, other times it’s
mentality. But quite often, it’s simply the
physical features of a player.
The thing is, you never heard of Messi
wishing he was taller, or Crouchy vowing to
get buff. Sometimes there’s no need to
change, you should simply work with what
you’ve got.
For people with perfectly formed arches, the
football boots fit, the trainers are
comfortable and they probably haven’t even
blinked an eye about it all.
It’s alright for some, eh. If you suffer with flat
feet though, it’s a different story. That’s why
we’re here to show you which boots are best
for your feet.
Watch out, comfort lies ahead…

Best football boots for flat feet this year

What are flat feet and how do

you know if you have them?

In its simplest form, flat feet or “fallen

arches” (their more poetic name) is when the
entire sole of your foot touches the ground,
including the instep area.
More commonly, as with normal arches, it
would only be the outside, heel, ball and toe
areas which would touch the ground.
Don’t panic though. According to official NHS
advice on flat feet, it really isn’t anything to
worry about.

Can you fix flat feet?

Flat feet are often hereditary, and

unfortunately there’s no magic sponge for
that.
It’s something that can’t be altered, which
means for you more than most, you need the
correct support from your footwear. And that
includes football boots.
It’s also an option for you to place orthotic
insoles into your football boots, as a way to
add another level of support.
This is usually helpful for people who suffer
with similar problems like plantar fasciitis
(sensitive heels). For the price of them,
there’s surely no harm in trying right?

feet?

Jordan Henderson, Lionel Messi, Karim

Benzema. What do these top players have in
common? That’s right, flat feet. Oh, and a
few Champions League and World Cup
medals too.
We’re pretty sure that is comprehensive
evidence that the condition isn’t an issue
when playing football.
Couple those names with the fact that flat
feet aren’t ordinarily painful, and it really
boils down to choosing the right boots to
support you on your footballing journey.

This is adidas’ most comfortable release in

recent years, and it’s an ideal model for every
flat-footed footballer amongst us.
Wider than the previous Copa Sense, the
adidas Copa Pure has been modernised with
a soft but supportive Fusionskin upper.
On release, it was claimed to be ‘one for the
footballing purist’, which also happens to be
true. Note: make sure you opt for the ‘.1’
laced version over the laceless ‘+’.

easier entry.

around the foot, with help from the laces to
secure the feel you need.

models on the market, there are some
cracking deals available out there for the
Future.

incredible alternative.
The premium leather upper is partnered with

profile lightweight insole for all-round
comfort on flat feet.
