10 Pro Indoor Soccer Shoes Reviews – Make Powerful Shots in 2024

Adidas is synonymous with perfection when it comes to producing high-quality soccer shoes. The Samba's have been around for as long as we can remember and they have consistently given us top results whenever we’ve tried them out.

Let’s dive into the details:

This Samba edition comes with a strong, sturdy, and a very comfortable rubber sole that extends the life of the shoe. It also features a full grain leather covering that makes these shoes stand out from the crowd.

The shoes have a gum rubber outsole that might feel heavier on the feet but provides an excellent grip on astroturf, soft surfaces, and other concrete surfaces.

In our opinion, the best thing about these shoes is this:

They’re great for providing an overall balance to your game; offering just the right amount of control and speed. Simply put, the Sambas are an excellent all-around soccer shoe.

However…

The Sambas do come with a slight arch support that might get uncomfortable for people used to flat shoes.

Would that annoy you?

Luckily, you can easily remove the arch support by removing the insole and peeling off the foam underneath.

This Samba edition comes in two color variants of black and white, and a sleek suede upper with contrasting suede overlays and a 3-Stripes design, which gives these shoes a beautiful finish.

These classic Samba’s by Adidas just never went out of style!

Features:

• Rubber sole
• Full grain leather upper
• Die-cut EVA insole for lightweight comfort
• Non-marking gum rubber outsole for excellent grip on all indoor surfaces
• Arch support

These Soccer cleats have a very traditional design with tiny studs on the bottom to maintain a grip on astroturf and other similar indoor surfaces. However, they are not suitable for concrete surfaces as we found that they eventually slip.

There are so many good things about this one…

These leather built, Mundial Team cleats provide a very comfortable housing for your feet. This edition comes with extra padding on the shoes and provides you with an excellent first touch.

The Mundial Team range of shoes also features a shaft that measures approximately low-top from the arch. What you really get is a premium pair of shoes with top quality padding to enhance your comfort in the game.

A word of caution:

These shoes might feel big on your feet, which can limit your speed and comfort in the game.

The front face of these soccer cleats has a split-suede leather upper that gives a classical touch to the shoes. More importantly, however, it enhances the first touch of the ball and gives good power off the ball when it’s hit.

The die-cut EVA insole and the pre-molded EVA midsole of these Mundial Team shoes provide a lightweight feel and cushioning to your feet. Also, its TRAXION outsole provides maximum grip in all directions.

Features:

• Rubber sole
• Kangaroo leather
• Shaft measures approximately low-top from arch
• Split-suede leather upper

Nike’s Tiempo shoes were an instant hit among both fans and players all over the world as soon as they were released. They majorly became famous because of their classy design and feel in a time where other brands were mostly coming up with tacky and extravagant designs.

Here’s a pro-tip…

Our research shows that the Tiempos offer very good balance to your overall game. They offer power, control, and grip of the surface. So, if you are a midfielder who likes to control the tempo of the game, you should definitely try these out!

More tasty details:

These Tiempo shoes come with a rubber sole that feels very comfortable on your feet.

However, the rubber sole can make the shoes feel a little heavier on the feet, which may compromise on your speed. But if speed is not an integral part of your game, don’t worry about it!

Nike Tiempos have been endorsed by Ronaldinho, who is arguably the most stylish player in the history of the game. Other notable players who have worn the Tiempo’s are Sergio Ramos, Andrea Pirlo, and Gerrard Pique.

Hold on…

During our research, we found that these shoes are quite susceptible to grains getting inside during the game. This could possibly get uncomfortable. We also found that they tend to cling to your skin if you have sweaty feet. To counter this, we feel getting a pair 0.5 size bigger is a good idea.

These leather shoes come in multiple color variants; the classy black and white with metallic gold, and pure platinum with a touch of black and hyper orange.

Features:

• Genuine cow leather
• Rubber sole
• Full-length Phylon midsole
• High density, die-cut EVA sock liner
• Gum rubber outsole with pivot point

The Messi 16.3 brings with it greater control to the game of soccer. Messi used and endorsed this breathtaking pair of shoes himself and they became an instant hit.

The synthetic sole of these soccer shoes maximizes the grip on the turf, so if you are a player who makes a lot of sharp turns on the pitch, this will easily get you out of a crowded space.

The best is yet to come…

The best part of the Messi 16.3 is that it fits perfectly on your foot! We found most customers experienced zero wear-in time with the agility-touch-skin covering, which molds perfectly to fit your foot the instant you slip it on.

Plus, its mono-tongue construction prevents grains and turf material from entering the shoe and provides explosive agility.

If you’re looking for that extra control of the ball in your game, getting your hands on this Messi 16.3 version of Adidas is definitely going to be worth it.

Wait a second...

These shoes do have a drawback, though. The skin of the shoes isn’t light enough to improve the speed of the game, and the shoes do tend to feel a bit heavier on the foot since they are focused on control.

We also found some customers complaining about how the front of the shoe runs a bit narrow, which might take some getting used to. But then again, who said playing like Messi would be easy?

These shoes come in two different colors with a similar built; neon green and shock blue. The eye-catching colors make the shoes look even more stylish.

Features:

• Synthetic sole
• Foot hugging AGILITY TOUCH SKIN upper
• Snug-fit mono-tongue construction
• Special indoor outsole

The X Tango is a newer range of football shoes by Adidas. They have incorporated new technology into the shoes to improve various aspects of the game.

Let's dive into the details:

You get a rubber outsole with these Adidas shoe that gives you an increased grip on the all indoor surfaces like astroturf, concrete or any other synthetic surfaces.

It also has a shaft that measures approximately low-top from arch, so you feel comfortable all the while you are wearing these shoes.

Now on to the goodies...

The X Tango comes with a tech-fit compression upper so you can put the shoes on in a very short time. With the tech-fit compression, you no longer have to go through the hassle of tying up your laces again and again. Our research also shows that the shoes perfectly mold to your feet and the fit is really great.

The shoes have optimum cushioning to enhance your first touch of the ball, and its lightweight housing allows you to reach your top speed while ensuring a really good grip on the surface, so you can twist and turn as much as you want.

The unique front face of the shoe allows natural movement of the user, while a mid-cut design supports supreme stability.

These shoes come in quite an ordinary design of polka dots that are spread around it and come in a variety of three colors: white, energy blue and black. Moreover, it runs a bit narrow so you might face some issues if you have a wider foot.

Features:

• Synthetic

• Knit upper and a mid-cut design
• Turf outsole

The Mercurial range by Nike is one of the most acclaimed soccer shoes line in the world. Endorsed by one of the greatest attackers in the history of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo, Nike has chosen the perfect ambassador to create a buzz for these soccer shoes.

Here’s what we love about this one…

The Mercurial Victory VI shoes have a synthetic built, which makes them extremely lightweight and enables you to reach your top speed while you’re wearing them.

The shoes also come with a fabric sole that makes them super breathable and comfortable to wear for longer periods throughout the day.

You can also wear these shoes for casual purposes. The Mercurial VI comes in several attractive colors. You can pick from more extravagant shades like purple dynasty and total crimson, or go with the all-time classic, pure platinum.

The tongue-less construction provides a perfect locked-down fit for your feet, and the rubber outsole provides a good grip on indoor surfaces.

The Mercurials also come with embossed horizontal ridges that are built to enhance your first touch.

Wait, wait...

The only downside we feel is that the shoes run a bit narrow, so if you have a wide foot, it may cause some distress to you in the beginning.

In addition to that, the price of the Mercurial is relatively higher than other competitive counterparts in the market.

Features:

• Synthetic built
• Fabric sole
• Tongue-less construction provides a locked-down fit
• Embossed horizontal ridges to enhance touch
• Rubber outsole provides grip on indoor surfaces

Puma is an international brand that focuses on three main points while designing everything in its product range: Sport, Lifestyle, and Fashion. And that’s the philosophy they incorporate in the Netfits.

Let’s get down to business:

In the first glance, you can tell the design of the shoe is top-notch. The breathable material then helps in making the decision of buying these shoes even easier.

These shoes come in multiple colors, such as Puma black, blue depths, fiery coral and a quiet shade in gray. With so much variety, there’s something for everybody to choose from.

The NETFIT lace-up closure allows customizable lace positioning for a truly comfortable fit. Some customers, however, find the free lace design of old to be the best fit for them. But if you’re looking for something new and different in your soccer shoe, this Netfit pair has got you covered.

The 365 Netfit ST soccer shoes come with mesh uppers with synthetic overlays in a low-profile silhouette that helps improve your performance in the game. The rubber sole also allows you to have a good grip of the surface while playing.

But be careful…

Through our in-depth research, we found that although Puma has focused on making the shoes look really great, even extravagant, they have heavily compromised on their durability in the process.

Our reviews show that these Puma shoes have a very low life; either the rubber sole or the Netfit lace area is likely to give way after some time. And for a price of around $60, this isn't something everybody will be too excited about in their new pair of shoes.

Our findings showed another major drawback in these shoes. The Netfits don’t really enhance any particular part of the gameplay like close control, first touch, speed etc. They just ‘look’ brilliant! The front face of the shoe also doesn’t have any padding, so if you miskick somehow, god bless your toes.

Overall, we feel Puma had the right idea to start off with but compromised on some major pointers for this to land at the top of our list.

Features:

• Synthetic
• Rubber sole
• Shaft measures approximately low-top from arch
• NETFIT customizable lacing system
• Rubber outsole

This zebra patterned edition is a lace-less indoor variant of Adidas Nemeziz Tango 17+ 360. The front face of the shoe is made of Agility Bandages, a feature unique to Adidas, which makes these Soccer shoes a lot more breathable than their competitors.

Our research shows that these shoes are also super easy to slip on. The elastic bandages wrap around your foot and compress it, leaving you with a nice, snug fit.

The Polyurethane top layer of the Nemeziz is equipped with grip dots that run through the forefoot and toe-box area for structure and protection in case you’re playing street soccer. The shoe also has a mid-cut design with silicone grips on the inner side to hold your foot in place.

We aren’t done yet…

The first touch off the ball is impressive due to the thin overlapping Agility Bandages on the upper side of the shoe. The heel of the shoes is made of basic suede with a good amount of padding that further enhances your first touch.

But the shoe isn’t very lightweight itself, owing to the fact that it has a foamy bottom and an Agility Bandages upper.

These shoes have fully removable perforated insoles, featuring a thin suede liner on top and underfoot cushioning that increase the beauty of the shoe while making sure it's super comfortable to put on.

It offers a fair amount of traction for indoor courts, asphalt, concrete and other street soccer type environments.

But this product does have its limitations…

Since the Adidas Nemeziz has a lace-less design, you're likely to face issues with agility and traction control. Our research shows that the upper mid-cut design of the shoe stretches very easily, which might lead to discomfort in the heel and a feeling that the shoe is about to come off.

Moreover, the foam sole of these shoes doesn't come with a rubber lining in the mid-portion under the foot, so chances are it might tear away if you're constantly playing on hard surfaces. The flat rubber traction patterns on the heel and forefoot areas are not quite efficient on dusty indoor courts.

A modern-style indoor shoe, the Nemeziz comes in a black-and-white color with “360 AGILITY BANDAGE” branded on the medial side of the sole. The cool design makes it a good option for casual wear too.

Features:

• Synthetic
• Boost™ underfoot cushioning
• Lace-less 360 Agility Bandage System
• Rubber outsole
• Fully removable perforated insoles

These leather shoes by Adidas focus primarily on enhancing your speed in the game.

These Adidas Originals come in three beautiful colors of black, solar red, and solar orange. They feature rubber soles, which enhance the grip on astroturf, concrete surfaces, etc.

Things we love about this one…

According to our findings, these shoes are very comfortable and its shaft measures approximately low-top from arch. The breathable and stretchable material these shoes are made of makes them a perfect fit for you, regardless of whether you have wide or narrow feet.

The best part about these Adidas shoes is how lightweight they are. The moment you put them on, you’ll feel its durable synthetic upper adjusting to your foot. This enhances your speed in the game.

Lightweight materials are usually the best way forward for a pacey winger or a striker that relies a lot on speed, and these shoes are perfect for that.

But then again…

We believe that Adidas could have produced different variants of these shoes in order to provide variety to the customers. Moreover, the shoes don’t come with any extra padding at the front, which reduces the effectiveness of the first touch of the ball.

Our reviews further showed that the Adidas X 17.4 are prone to attracting dust on the shoes. This means you’ll probably have to clean them more often than usual to give them a nice, clean look.

Features:

• Synthetic upper for durability and lightweight
• Rubber sole
• Shaft measures approximately low-top from arch
• Indoor-specific non-marking rubber outsole

The Mercurial Victory V shoes are very popular among soccer fans around the world. Like all other Nike shoes, these also enhance your speed in the game with their lightweight and breathable material.

The Mercurial V comes with a rubber sole that provides excellent traction and a solid grip on all surfaces. These shoes are synthetically constructed like most other competitors in the industry.

There’s more…

The most unique part about these shoes is its mid-sole, which is made of a contoured sock liner with a textile top that delivers low-profile cushioning, giving you full-game comfort.

However, we found a lot of customers complaining about how the cushioning actually caused blisters on their feet.

These indoor soccer shoes come in a number of colors with a very basic overall design. You can pick from classy or extravagant colors; there is one for everybody! The Mercurial V shoes come in bright mango, blue, black, wolf grey, white, hyper punch, electric green, and many other color variants.

The problem is:

Our research showed these shoes are not as sturdy as most of their competitors.

Moreover, there have been complaints of the shoes being too narrow, making them quite unfit for people with wide feet.

Another problem is that because these shoes are made of such a lightweight material, they also tend to be less durable than most since the material can tear easily on rough or hard surfaces.

Still…

We love that this shoe can be stylishly worn with casual clothing, and in turn provide a comfortable housing for your feet all day long.

Features:

• Synthetic
• Suede sole
• Soft, micro-textured synthetic leather enhances ball control
• Internal cage prevents the foot from slipping in the shoe
• Contoured sock liner mirrors the foot shape for support
• Low-profile cushioning
• Non-marking outsole to help enhance movement and traction
