Henry,
Me parece que 'boots' é comum na expressão 'hang up your boots'. Ao passo que 'cleats' não muito.
Valeu!

Brazil Legend Ronaldo Hangs Up His Boots
Brazilian striker Ronaldo, the all-time leading scorer at World Cup tournaments and three-time Fifa World Player of the Year, is to retire at the age of 34.
Ronaldo said he can no longer keep up with the demands of the game ending a brilliant 18-year career in which he scored more than 400 goals including a record 15 at World Cups.
"I want to stay but I can't. I think of a move, but I can't perform it as I want to. It's time, " the striker told a Brazilian newspaper.
He added: "My body aches. The head wants to continue, but the body can't take much more."

Hi Mary
I know both expressions but I think the meanings are different.
"Pendurar as chuteiras" is related to retire, or to stop doing something one used to do.
"Jogar a toalha" (to throw the towel) refers to give up something, usually after trying very hard.
By the way, there's a topic about the second one: Como dizer "jogar a toalha" em inglês

Donay, I'm used to "cleats" for "chuteira," but this may be a North-American term.

Flavia,
I agree with your observation as these two have very different meanings as you correct describe.
One alternative would be: call it a day
* The band decided to call it a day and each go their own way.
* Ronaldo decided to call it a day on his international career after an injury on his knee.

Hang up boots is an expression. It was found in the Cambridge dictionary, but was foreign to me.
It means to stop playing for good (permanently).
In American English you could say "He threw in the towel" which can be used for a one time event or permanently ending his career (giving up).
