How has football boots changed?

Answer 1

Modern football boots are made out of special fibres than are very lightweight and are shaped like a shoe or sports trainer. However an old fashioned football boot was made out of thick leather and came up past the ankle much like a hiking boot does. They were very heavy and uncomfortable to wear but gave a lot of protection to both the foot and ankle areas (something that modern football boots do not, hence the modern game has a lot more foot and ankle injuries). More input: I own a pair that were sent to me from Scotland in 1956. Tough leather high ankle boots (like old NFL Gridiron boots) with hard as steel reinforced leather capped toes. Extra hard sole with six wooden studs that were nailed into the sole.
