Teams wear matching duds. And both keepers wear something different from the players of either team and from each other and the officials. The shin guards must be "made of a suitable material" and must "provide a reasonable degree of protection" per the rules. Socks or stockings must be pulled up to cover the shin guards. No player may wear anything that is dangerous to himself or another player, and the footwear is inspected to insure any features that provide an increase in traction are "safe" and appropriate. There is a bit more detail offered in the Laws of the Game, and a link is provided.
