Twenty players tested three soccer boots only differing in the upper boot material (natural calf leather, natural kangaroo leather and synthetic leather). Players reported fitting perception and preference on specific foot areas using a perceived fitting scale. Ratings were averaged for every foot area. Repeated measures ANOVA was used to analyze the differences between boots. The kangaroo leather boots were perceived tighter and closer to the preferred fitting in general fitting, metatarsals area and instep area. The synthetic leather boots were perceived as the loosest and as the most distant boot from the preferred fitting in medial front area and instep area. In conclusion, the type of upper boot material influences the fitting perception of soccer players. The kangaroo leather was the material whose fitting was perceived closest to the players fitting preference.

Its most common form is an innovative design that features cotton on the outer fabric and a cool-to-the-touch synthetic material underneath. While many moisture wicking products are mostly polyester, Climalite's cotton and synthetic combo makes for a softer feel.There are also adidas Climalite variations that feature a hydrophilic coating to further enhance the outer surface's sweat-pulling properties.

As sweat builds, the synthetic fibers inside of adidas Climalite garments go to work, pushing the sweat away from the body to the outer cotton layer where it's quickly evaporated. A hydrophilic finish directs moisture away from the athlete's body, while the lightweight polyester-based construction will keep you cool and help avoid overheating.
