it depends on what football cleats. Nike always have top quality cleats. Only cleats I've ever used.

Football cleats usually withstand a little more to wear and tear. I have a pair of Under Armor football cleats that are comfortable and just plain amazing. Though you have to consider what kind of field you will also be playing alot on.
Certains cleats perform better on certain surfaces. So search that up and take it into consideration.

I've gone through several different types of cleats. My favorites have been the Nike vaporjet TDs and the Under Armour ISO mids. The Nikes are football cleats but the UAs are lacrosse specific cleats. Both have held up well, I played for 1 season in the nikes and this season in the UAs.
The Nikes are lightweight and better for open field speed.
The UAs are a bit heavier but get much better traction, especially in soft ground. They are screw ins but have molded studs as well.
As an attackman I prefer the UAs for better traction inside but the Nikes are nice too.

Give the Nike Air Talon molded cleats a look. I got them a few weeks ago and thus far love them. They are extremely light while still giving you the comfort and ankle support of a high/midtop cleat. Plus, they look fantastic. Not a bad thing to say about the cleat personally.

I have them in the detachable and they are great. I have played on both grass and field turf with them and they are great on both. Great ankle support as well. I would recommend them.

as a defenseman, i have the under armour iso mid d. they are more along the lines of football cleats. i love them. they're the best cleats i've ever owned.
but they're midtops so i don't know if thats what you want since attackmen like to have mobility instead of support. football cleats offer alot of support at the expense of mobility.
alot of the attackmen on my team like to use soccer cleats.
