10 Best Kids Football Boots Under €100 (Ireland, 2026)
Note: Prices and availability are subject to change. Please check the retailer's website for the most current information.
How to get the best value under €100
- Pick FG/AG (MG) if training moves to astro — one pair covers grass + 3G, saving money.
- Target “Academy” / “.3 / Match” tiers — softer, durable materials kids find comfy, at mid‑range prices.
- Last‑season colourways = big savings — same boot, older graphic.
- Fit beats features — snug heel/midfoot, a thumb’s width at the toes; don’t oversize “to grow into.”
FAQ
Are budget boots good enough for kids’ matches?
Yes — the mid tiers (Academy / .3 / Match) deliver reliable traction, comfort and durability for youth football.
Is FG/AG better than pure FG if I’m buying one pair?
Usually yes — FG/AG (MG) works on grass and 3G, avoiding extra spend (and coach warnings) on astro.
Leather or synthetic under €100?
Both work. Leather (e.g., Copa) moulds to the foot; modern synthetics (Tiempo Academy, Future Match) are comfy out of the box.
How do I avoid blisters with cheaper boots?
Correct fit + football socks, gradual break‑in (first session short), and keep heels locked with proper lacing.
Best time to buy under €100?
When new colourways drop — last‑season models are discounted. Also watch back‑to‑school and Black Friday.
