Shin guards
For best fit, the shin guards should start approx. 1 ^1/2 to 2 inches from bottom of knee.  Some players prefer slide-in styles, as they are lighter, allows for more movement.  But the ones with the ankle guards are good and give the girls some confidence against the kicks in the ankles.  But not really anymore protection. Shots to the ankle just hurt.
 

Boots

It’s worth the expense to get leather boots.  I recommend you stay away from synthetic matterials. ( Puma v104, v105 etc are ok ) No Nike Vapors as they can cause blister !! If you go for the Vapors, make sure you get a real tight fit.  Most Adidas boots are optimal but try to get Kangaroo leather ( you get a truer fit and the shoe doesn’t stretch as much.)

Basically let the girls pick what they like but try to steer them to the softest leathers and stay away from the synthetics. With the soccer boots ( sneaks ) price really does make a difference ( unfortunately ) . Look at a style and pick one expensive and one of the cheaper versions of the same shoe and you can feel the difference.
 
That should answer those that were asking about shoes. If you go to Angelos, for the most part the staff members are all soccer players so they are good with questons. As players they may all have different insight to certain styles.
