FAQs

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?

No, these are firm ground (FG) boots designed for natural grass pitches. Using them on artificial grass may cause excessive wear and potentially injury.

How do I know if the fit is correct?

A correct fit should feel snug but not painful. Your toes should be near the end of the boot without being cramped, and the heel should not lift excessively when you walk or run.

What does 'floating tongue' mean?

The floating tongue is designed to stay in place and provide a more secure, adaptable fit, making it easier to step into the boot and adjust the lockdown.

Will the lacquer wear on the sole affect my performance?

No, the wear of the lacquer finish is purely cosmetic and does not affect the grip, stability, or overall performance of the boot.

How often should I clean my football boots?

It's best to clean your boots after every use to remove dirt and prolong their life. Allow them to air dry naturally.

What is the main benefit of the Nanostrike+ upper?

The Nanostrike+ upper combines a lightweight mesh with integrated rubber grip elements to enhance ball control and improve striking accuracy.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure laces are not over-tightened. Try adjusting the floating tongue position. Wear with appropriate football socks and allow for a break-in period.

Traction feels inadequate on the pitch.

Confirm you are using the boots on the intended firm ground surface. Clean any mud or debris from the studs. Note that stud wear over time can affect traction.

Lacquer finish on soleplate is peeling.

This is a cosmetic effect of normal play and does not impact the boot's performance or structural integrity. Continue to use as intended.

Material appears discolored after use.

Minor discoloration can occur due to pitch conditions and cleaning. Ensure proper cleaning methods are followed to minimize this effect.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Lacing: Thread laces through the eyelets, ensuring the floating tongue is positioned correctly for easy entry.
  2. Fit Adjustment: Tighten laces to achieve a snug, comfortable fit. The floating tongue should adapt to your foot shape.
  3. Initial Wear: It is recommended to wear the boots for a short period before a full match to break them in.

Compatibility:

  • Surface: These are firm ground (FG) football boots. They are designed for use on natural grass pitches that are slightly damp to dry. They are not suitable for artificial grass, hard ground, or very wet/muddy conditions.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. Clean the boots using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the boots.
  2. Drying: Air dry the boots naturally away from direct heat sources such as radiators or sunlight. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to protect them from dust and damage.
