Suitable for hard natural grass pitches. Usually slightly more studs in the shape of a hook, giving you a lot of grip on natural grass.
Artificial Grass (AG; Artificial Ground)
Usually more studs in a rounder shape, which are closer together. This means the studs wear out less quickly on artificial grass and you have less chance of injuries.
Grass & Artificial Grass (MG; Multi Ground)
Suitable for multiple surfaces. The soleplate is a perfect balance between natural grass and artificial grass studs.
Soggy Grass (SG; Soft Ground)
Ideal for short, soft grass pitches. Usually fewer but longer iron studs, so you are less likely to slip on soggy grass.
Indoor (IN)
Equipped with a rubber outsole that does not leave marks in the hall.
Street (TF; Turf)
Especially for harder surfaces such as street or short artificial grass. Have many small rubber studs for optimal grip, freedom of movement and a lot of cushioning.
