FAQs
Can I use these boots on artificial grass?
These are designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. While they may work on newer artificial grass, the stud configuration is optimized for natural grass; using them on AG may void the warranty or lead to premature wear.
How do I maintain the suede material?
Keep the suede clean by gently brushing off dried mud and wiping it with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging the boots in water.
Is the fit true to size?
Yes, these are designed as a regular fit. If you prefer a very tight, compression-like feel, some players stick to their standard size, but ensure your heel is locked in by the collar.
What happens if the laceless fit becomes loose?
The adidas Primeknit collar is designed to retain its shape. If you feel movement, ensure you are wearing appropriate performance football socks that provide enough friction.
Does the lacquer peeling affect the boot's performance?
No. The lacquer is purely cosmetic. Once it wears off, the high-performance material of the soleplate underneath remains fully functional.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight initially
The Primeknit collar and HybridTouch material require a short break-in period. Wear them for light training sessions before full-intensity matches.
Lacquer finish is peeling on the soleplate
This is normal cosmetic wear from friction against the pitch. It does not affect the performance or structural integrity of the soleplate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your boots, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: These boots feature a regular fit. Because there are no laces, the Primeknit collar is responsible for the lockdown; ensure the size feels snug but not restrictive to avoid pressure points.
- Compatibility: These are Firm Ground (FG) boots. Do not use them on artificial grass (AG) or soft ground (SG) surfaces to prevent premature stud wear or potential foot injury.
- Cleaning: After play, remove excess mud with a soft brush. Wipe the suede and synthetic upper with a damp cloth. Do not put them in a washing machine or dryer.
- Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the material.
- Note on Appearance: The shiny lacquer on the bottom of the boot is a cosmetic finish. It will naturally fade as the plastic touches the turf; this is a standard characteristic and does not indicate a defect.
