Rugby boots are usually stronger and usually have 10 studs, where soccer cleats have around 16. Depending on which position a player plays in rugby, their boots may be as light as soccer cleats (most backs) or heavier and sturdier (forwards).
if your playing flank in rugby its ok to just wear soccer cleats because as flank you need light shoes and you need to run fast.

Football boots are higher than soccer boots, they have studs rather than teeth.
The soccer boots are like that because the bottom of the boot goes on the ball a lot more than footy.
Normally they are the same - however, rugby boots are cut higher around the ankle and can have 4 heel studs and 6 sole studs for added grip. Forwards use these most frequently

Can you were soccer shoes for baseball?
Baseball and soccer cleats are quite different because they are designed for different purposes. Soccer cleats are designed for grip exclusively on turf since the soccer pitch is entirely covered in turf, but baseball cleats are designed to give the player maximum grip on the dirt basepaths, which is why baseball cleats will sometimes perform poorly for outfielders, especially on wet turf. Soccer cleats are round while baseball cleats are (generally) rectangular, and both have blunt bottoms. Certain soccer boots allow the owner to change out the cleats as they wear, but I have never seen baseball shoes with replaceable cleats. The biggest difference however is that baseball cleats may be made of metal but soccer cleats never can. If you've ever wondered why soccer players kneel down while the referee walks behind them before a match, it is so he can see that all cleats are legal. In both sports it is illegal to sharpen cleats into spikes.
Will turf cleats work on grass?
Well, you should probably not use metal cleats. The soccer referees won't allow metal cleats. Just check out Adidas cleats online or Nike and they should have the kind you need. That's what I have for soccer.
