   The product, in the report: During 5 years period I got multiples injuries wearing multiples soccer shoes brands some are [REDACTED] the last one was a Nike t90-total, color blue

   Until now, the two most common soccer injuries are:ankle sprains and Achilles tendon rupture or tear. During five years period of practice soccer, i injury my self between seven to nine times with different soccer shoes brands . My most common injury it was achilles tendon and calf tear. This injuries it has never been associate directly with the soccer shoes design malfunction because to the simple eye view for many of us it’s difficult to see how athlete move the foot on the grass field. Thanks to biometric data analysis equipment on the marked and it’s applicability on sports we can see what simple eye view can not. The grass terrain is an uneven surface no matter what,to the athlete that wear cleats because it’s faulty design in combination with the soft ground create a hazard for lower leg,bone,muscle,tendons, etc. How this happened ? There is a principal that mostly all sport shoes designers fallow. Due to the calcaneus or heel fall on mostly all body mass, designers increase cushions in the area for more comfortable impact when we walk,run, jump etc. This principal has negative effects with cleated sport shoes on a grass terrain. Cleated shoes with or without cushion on grass terrain it’s acting like a dagger(on heel area)a holding force and it go deeper according the weight index we apply. The deeper it goes down,the difficult to pull out. Cleats, created bigger problems on grass terrain broke the anatomic alignment between heel to toes and for that, change the weight and balance center making more difficult no only departure but turning to the sites, jumping, running, kicking the ball, etc. In conclusion ,Cleats,on a grass terrain created more drag to the player foot to point of over stretching legs muscle and taking the tendons to the limit of it elasticity to the limit where injury start.
