FAQs

Can I wear these on artificial grass?

No, the Predator EQT Elite Tongue SG is designed specifically for soft natural ground. Using them on hard surfaces or artificial grass may damage the studs and soleplate.

How do I care for the mesh midfoot?

Clean the mesh area with a damp cloth and mild detergent, avoiding harsh scrubbing that could fray the fabric.

What is the benefit of the foldover tongue?

Beyond the 90s aesthetic, the tongue provides a smoother, unobstructed surface for ball contact and helps lock the foot in place.

Do these boots fit true to size?

Generally, yes. However, players preferring a very tight lockdown may consider their standard size, while those wanting extra room for thicker socks may prefer half a size up.

Does the Powerspine tech add weight?

No, the Powerspine is engineered to be lightweight while maintaining high rigidity, ensuring you get power benefits without feeling weighed down.

Troubleshooting

Studs collecting excessive mud

Use a specialized boot scraper or soft brush to clear the gaps between the fang studs after every match to maintain traction.

Tongue shifting during play

Adjust the laces under the tongue to ensure the velcro or retention strap is firmly secured in the desired position.

Grip elements losing tackiness

Gently clean the rubber elements with a microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution to remove dirt build-up that blocks grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior ball control via rubber grip elements
  • Optimized power transfer with stable Powerspine tech
  • Agile movement on soft ground thanks to fang-shaped studs
  • Classic aesthetic with the authentic foldover tongue design

Cons

  • Strictly for soft-ground use; not suitable for firm ground or turf
  • Requires proper care to maintain rubber strike elements
  • Foldover tongue may require adjustment for personal preference

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal fit, ensure the internal laces are tied securely beneath the foldover tongue to avoid interference with your strike zone. These boots are engineered specifically for soft ground (SG) and should not be worn on dry, hard surfaces, as the metal-tipped or aggressive studs can cause premature wear or injury. After each use, wipe away excess mud with a soft brush and lukewarm water. Do not submerge the boots in water. Allow them to air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area—never place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can degrade the synthetic upper and the rubber grip elements.
