Footie boots

Maybe this is a topic that has been covered before on here. I'm not much of a sports fan, but I have been watching some of the Euro '24 coverage in light of the fact that England has made it further through the competition than might normally be the case.
I was struck by the proliferation of pink and purple footie boots (cleats if you are in North America) on show - along with the odd smattering of yellow, salmon and white. Seems this has been a thing for the past few years. When I was a kid, many of the boys my age wanted to wear all of the gear that their favourite player wore. I'm pretty sure that pink boots would be a bridge too far back then, but hopefully not now!
