- Traditional soccer uniforms: Although they also focus on breathability, they emphasize durability to cope with the wear and tear of outdoor venues.
- Design

- Traditional soccer uniforms: Mostly short-sleeved, with complex designs, and may include more sponsor logos and decorations.

- Traditional soccer shoes: With spikes on the soles, suitable for grass or artificial turf.
- Colors and numbers
