Unless you get the Copa's outside of California, they are not the Copa's of old. California and several other states now have the kangaroo (hopping rat) leather ban and the original Copa's were made with kangaroo leather. The Nike Tiempos also had kangaroo leather. The Copa's currently sold in California aren't kangaroo leather and the ones legally shipped to California are not kangaroo. My DD uses the Tiempos and we have a friend from Florida send her a new pair when needed. DD had some foot problems when she was 12y/o and wearing Copa's. The podiatrist told her those cleats were horrible for your feet and recommended Pumas or the Tiempos. He said that even with insert they were still not good for the feet since they had no arch support and did not flex. I know a good number of club players that use the Copa's and like them, but have not seen many adult/college players using them.
The Tiempos and Copa's have the round studs and work well on both grass and turf. If your kid is going to play college in a rainy part of the country, just get them the soft ground cleats with replaceable studs. They work great on the soft wet and muddy fields you will run into in the northwest and southeast. If your kid is going to play college they should at a minimum have three pair of cleats, firm ground, turf, and a practice pair usually firm ground. DD had four pair, FG, turf, SG and a practice pair.
