FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
These are FG (Firm Ground) boots designed specifically for natural grass. Using them on artificial surfaces may cause premature wear.
How do I ensure the right size?
These follow standard UK adult sizing. We recommend checking your foot length against the adidas size chart to account for the performance-fit profile.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and technical coatings of the boots. Always hand-clean.
What does NANOSTRIKE+ technology do?
It is a specialized surface treatment designed to enhance ball contact and improve shooting precision.
How should I store the boots?
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the materials from drying out or discolouring.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel slippery on wet grass
Ensure the outsole studs are free of packed mud or debris, as this drastically reduces traction.
Accumulated dirt on mesh upper
Gently scrub with a soft-bristle brush and a mixture of water and mild soap, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Fit feels too tight during initial wear
The synthetic materials require a short break-in period; wear them for light training sessions before competitive matches.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, ensure you select your correct UK size, as the Predator Elite offers a performance-oriented snug fit. For maintenance, remove mud and grass immediately after use using a soft brush. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the mesh upper; avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial detergents that might damage the coated finish. Always allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can cause the synthetic upper to deform or the adhesives to weaken over time.
