Choose footwear by the surface you play on most.
| Footwear | Outsole | Best surface | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Molded cleats | Rubber studs | Natural grass | Common for US high-school grass fields |
| Turf / astro shoes | Flat sole, small rubber nubs | Water-based and sand-based turf | Most popular choice for field hockey |
| Indoor shoes | Flat gum-rubber sole | Indoor courts | Non-marking soles for sports halls |
| Metal studs | Metal | Not allowed | Banned in field hockey |
Many artificial turf pitches do not allow molded cleats. Check your venue's rules.
Choose by surface. Molded cleats grip on grass, which many US high-school fields still use. Turf shoes have flat rubber outsoles with small studs for artificial pitches. Most turf pitches ban cleats because they damage the surface.
Look for a snug heel, a thumb's width of space at the toe, and good lateral support for sudden changes of direction. If you wear thick socks over shin guards, consider half a size up.
