FAQs

What type of pitch are these boots best suited for?

These boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, which are typically natural grass pitches that are not excessively wet or muddy.

How does the 'floating tongue' feature work?

The floating tongue is integrated with the lacing system to provide a secure, adaptable fit that is easy to step into and adjust for maximum comfort and lockdown.

What is the benefit of the Nanostrike+ upper?

The Nanostrike+ upper combines a soft, lightweight mesh with integrated rubber grip elements. This design enhances ball control and allows for greater precision when striking the ball.

Will the lacquer on the soleplate affect performance?

No, the wear of the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot during play is purely cosmetic and will not affect the performance of the product.

Are these boots suitable for all weather conditions?

While the Nanostrike+ upper is designed for both dry and wet conditions, the FG soleplate is optimized for firm ground. Performance may be compromised on very wet, muddy, or artificial surfaces.

What does the EQT Elite Tongue signify?

EQT stands for Equipment, referencing a classic adidas line from the 90s. This specific model celebrates that heritage with iconic branding and design elements, combined with modern performance features.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure the laces are properly adjusted and the floating tongue is positioned correctly. If the issue persists, consider if the regular fit is suitable or if a different size/model might be more appropriate.

Traction feels insufficient on the pitch.

Confirm you are playing on a firm ground surface. The 'fang' studs are optimized for this type of terrain. Ensure the studs are clean and free from debris.

Lacquer on the soleplate is wearing off.

This is a normal cosmetic effect of play on firm ground and does not impact the performance, grip, or durability of the boot. Continue using as normal.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced striking precision due to Nanostrike+ upper and rubber grip elements.
  • Improved traction and agility on firm ground with the Strikeframe soleplate.
  • Comfortable and secure fit with Primeknit collar and floating tongue.
  • Retro aesthetic appeals to fans of classic sportswear.
  • Designed to aid in generating more powerful shots with Powerspine technology.

Cons

  • Lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during play.
  • Firm ground specific; not suitable for artificial or soft ground.
  • Regular fit may not suit players needing a wider fit without adjustment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the boots are the correct size for a comfortable fit.
  2. Lace the boots using the provided closure system, adjusting the floating tongue for ease of entry and a secure feel.

Compatibility:

  • These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, meaning natural grass pitches that are not excessively wet or muddy.
  • Not recommended for use on artificial grass, hard ground, or soft ground pitches as this can affect performance and potentially damage the studs.

Care:

  • After use, remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth.
  • Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Store boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag.
  • The lacquer finish on the soleplate is aesthetic and may wear off with use. This is normal and does not affect the boot's performance or stud functionality.
