FAQs
What does 'AG-Pro' mean?
AG-Pro stands for Artificial Grass - Professional. This indicates the soleplate is specifically engineered for optimal performance and traction on modern, high-quality artificial turf pitches.
Can I use these boots on natural grass?
While they can technically be worn on natural grass, the AG-Pro stud pattern is optimized for artificial surfaces. Traction and stability may be compromised on natural grass, and wear on the studs might increase.
How do I clean the 'Pink Foam' upper?
Gently wipe the upper with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or soaking the shoe. Always allow the boots to air dry naturally.
What is the benefit of the Zoom Air unit?
The Zoom Air unit provides responsive cushioning, giving you a springy feel underfoot. This helps with quick movements and reduces impact, contributing to agility and comfort during play.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The boot should feel snug but not painful. Your heel should not lift excessively when walking or running. There should be a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the boot.
Are these boots suitable for all adult players?
Yes, they are designed for adult male athletes. The sizing and performance features cater to competitive play, but individual fit and preference are key.
What is the expected lifespan of these boots?
The lifespan depends on usage frequency, playing surface, and care. With proper care and use primarily on AG-Pro pitches, they are designed for durability during competitive play.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or cause discomfort
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution. If discomfort persists, the boots may not be the correct size or width for your foot. Consider trying a different size or model.
Traction feels insufficient on the pitch
Ensure the AG-Pro studs are clean and free of debris. If playing on a surface other than AG-Pro, the reduced traction is expected due to the stud design. For AG-Pro, check for any damage to the studs.
Upper material feels restrictive
The Flyknit upper is designed to be snug. Wear the boots for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and adapt to your foot shape. Ensure laces are not overtightened.
Difficulty cleaning the Flyknit material
Use a soft brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap with water and a soft cloth, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
Lacing: Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets and tied securely for a snug fit. Adjust tightness based on personal comfort and lockdown needs.
Fit Check: Wear the boots with your usual playing socks and walk around to confirm a comfortable and secure fit. There should be no excessive heel lift or pressure points.
Compatibility:
Primary Use: Designed specifically for Artificial Grass (AG-Pro) pitches.
Limited Use: While playable on other surfaces, performance and durability may be compromised. Not recommended for firm, hard, or wet natural grass pitches.
Care:
Cleaning: After each use, brush off dirt and mud with a soft brush. Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe down the upper and soleplate. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the boots in water.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never place them near a direct heat source (e.g., radiator, direct sunlight) as this can damage the materials.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
