Artificial grass football boots, all you should learn


AstroTurf or artificial grass, that’s the name that is usually given to an artificial pitch. As you may already know, the playing surface is really important in football, so you should choose the appropriate football boots to make the most of your game. In order to do so, you ought to be acquainted with the different models, shapes, brands and purposes.


Let’s start with the implementation of artificial grass in sports pitches. AstroTurf was originally a manufacturer of this kind of surface, which was used in the late 60’s on a multi-purpose sports stadium in Houston. In terms of football, the Spanish Real Madrid was the first European football club to put faith in the AstroTurf system in their practice fields. Its increasing popularity and easy maintenance revolutionized the industry until these pitches acquired the name of the brand.

Astro football boots, Turf or AG?

After having reviewed some history about astro turf pitches, what should you take into account when choosing your football boots? Brands offer a wide variety of shapes and materials which can be classified as “Turf” or “AG”. 


Turf boots are normally used on artificial grass filled with sand, therefore if your pitch is one of those, you should go for smaller rubber studs which will provide you more grip and resistance. On the other hand, AG boots provide more stability and potency on artificial grass which also tends to be more abrasive since it heats up quicker. These fields are also known as 3G or Third Generation football pitches and they are usually filled with rubber crumbs.


Your decision won’t be hard after having noted the basic differences between the grounds you’ll be performing on. Remember that other kinds of boots won’t suit your game and you won’t be able to brag about your technique unless you feel sure about your performance.
