In football, the terms outside of the foot and outside of the foot are sometimes used indiscriminately. Strictly speaking, however, the outside of the foot runs from the root of the toe to the area of the ankle, while the outer instep only comprises the outer part of the metatarsus from the root of the toe. The outside kicks and outside instep kicks are different types of football kicks. The same applies to the inner instep and the inner side of the foot .
The Portuguese Ricardo Quaresma is considered one of the best outside foot shooters . Other famous outside of the foot specialists were Franz Beckenbauer , Wolfram Wuttke and Roberto Carlos , whose sophisticated shooting technique consists of a combination of the outside of the instep and the tip of the foot.
Also in certain martial arts, such as Taijiquan , one speaks of kicks with the outer instep.
