Soccer cleats ranked by lightest, scored from every review we could find.
Mizuno Morelia Neo 5 Pro tops this list with a Cleats Hub Score of 8.1/10. Every score on this page is a weighted meta-analysis of independent expert and owner reviews, we don't sell or test cleats ourselves, so the ranking follows the evidence, not a brand deal. Open any cleat to see the full source list and where reviewers disagree.
The right cleat comes down to three things: the surface you play on (firm ground, artificial grass or turf), the silo that matches your game (speed, control or touch), and fit. Price matters less than most buyers think, the biggest jump in quality is from budget to mid-tier, not mid-tier to flagship. See our complete buyer's guide, or go deeper on soleplates and surfaces, speed, control and touch silos, and sizing and fit.
Mizuno Morelia Neo 5 Pro tops our ranking with a Cleats Hub Score of 8.1/10, aggregated from every review we could find. Nike Mercurial Vapor 17 Elite and adidas F50 Hyperfast Elite follow closely.
Each cleat gets one Cleats Hub Score, a weighted blend of independent expert reviews, owner ratings and objective specs, normalised to a 0–10 scale. We don't sell or physically test cleats; the ranking is pure aggregation, with every source shown on the cleat's page.
The cleats on this page run $135–$320 at RRP. You rarely need to spend at the top of that range, mid-tier models carry most of the performance of the flagship for a lot less.
