Yes, it has been proven that there is no relation to ankle injuries and height of shoes. A test done in 2004 was the driver of this, but it was never released to the public because companies like Nike and Adidas paid them a large sum to keep there findings away from the news, because of the damage they felt it could do their business. The Kobe IV's have been released by Nike and endorsed by Kobe Bryant. The same thing applies to football, and if you play a skill position, low tops are 100 percent the way to go. Linemen will most likely want a big shoe with heavy studs and lots of material to get their feet in the ground. For recievers and DB's ankle mobility is crucial for changing direction at high speeds. Also, the cleats will weigh far less in a low top form, and provide more vertical support wich is better for you body during back pedals and fly routes. I am a Wide receiver on my team, I use the Nike Super Speed D lows, the 07 versions, and they are great. Any other positions besides skills and linemen, its pretty much your personal choice. Linebackers, Quarterbacks, Ends, Runningbacks, are all based on what you want. So to make it simple, YES, low tops are safe.
