Just like mold grows on things outside, it will grow on shoes if left to dry in the air. Use the UV lights to disinfect. It really works.
What is amazing is as a team will jog by while I'm sitting on the side, I can smell the stink of shoes. Doesn't have to be that way.

Totally normal, feet get wet from grass now but in a few years it will be from sweat.
Start leaving them outside to dry after games.

Buy leather, you don't want water resistant. Get some boot dryers from Amazon as they'll dry them out and also kill bacteria (you know the smell you get from cleats after a while).
Everyone should use the boot dryers weekly. Below is one option, but there are cheaper out there if you look around.

No, there are no water resistant cleats.

Most cleats are made out of synthetic materials so water in the shoe is probably getting in from the top or being absorbed by the sock. I know that where my kids play the grass is often longer than optimal and this contributes to the problem.
You can do like older players with $$$ cleats do to protect them—only wear them on the field. They’ll still get wet during play, but at least your kiddo will start dry.

Hi, we are new to soccer and new to this forum. Where my (elementary aged) kids play, the grass is often damp or outright wet first thing in the morning. The cleats (and socks and feet) are all wet by the time we walk up to the sidelines. Are there water-proof or water-resistant cleats? I looked on Nike's website for example and there is no mention of something like that; and googling also didn't help me find something directly relevant (which I found strange). What do you all do? Is there a brand that you would recommend, even if it is not specifically advertised as water-resistant? Or is it normal for the shoes to be wet; and they get changed out when the game is over? Thanks in advance...
