Fit: If you are a kicker, choose a tight-fitting pair of rugby shoes to give you a good feel of the ball and to prevent your shoes from coming loose.
Support: For extra support in the ankles and scrums, choose rugby shoes with a mid- to high-cut ankle design. This design prevents joint strains and ankle injuries, but it usually reduces speed and flexibility.
Materials used: If you want added protection, choose a pair of rugby shoes with leather uppers. For added durability, look for a pair with synthetic uppers.
