Mizuno Alpha II Elite FG - Red - UK 10.5

The Mizuno Alpha II Elite FG boots feature a Firm Ground (FG) soleplate, meaning they are specifically designed and optimized for play on firm, natural grass pitches.

After each use, wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth to remove mud and dirt. For stubborn grime, use a soft brush and mild soap. Air dry them naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.

Mizuno boots generally run true to size. However, given the snug fit of the Alpha II Elite, some players might prefer to try them on to ensure optimal comfort. Refer to Mizuno's sizing chart if unsure.

ENERZY foam is an advanced cushioning material developed by Mizuno, placed in the heel of these boots. It provides excellent shock absorption and a high energy return, helping to cushion your steps and propel you forward during play.

Yes, the laces on the Mizuno Alpha II Elite FG boots are made from at least 90% recycled content, reflecting a commitment to sustainability.

These boots are exceptionally lightweight, weighing approximately 195 grams (for a single boot, size unspecified but typically a men's size 9 US / 8 UK is used for reference weights).

No, the FG (Firm Ground) soleplate is not designed for artificial grass. Using them on AG pitches can cause excessive wear to the studs, reduce traction, and may lead to discomfort or injury. It's recommended to use boots specifically designed for artificial grass for those surfaces.

These boots are designed for a snug fit. Allow a break-in period by wearing them for shorter durations in initial sessions. Ensure you're wearing appropriate football socks. Adjust lacing to find the balance between secure fit and comfort. If discomfort persists after several wears, ensure the size is correct.

Ensure the laces are tied securely to provide a locked-in fit. Check if the ZeroGlide Alpha Mesh sockliner is properly seated. If the sockliner is worn or dirty, clean it or consider replacing it. Ensure your football socks are not overly thin or slippery.

Verify that you are playing on firm, natural ground, as these boots are specifically designed for this surface. Clean the soleplate thoroughly after each use to remove any mud or debris that might be impacting stud performance. Check for any damaged or excessively worn studs.

Always air out your boots after each use by removing them from your bag. Remove the ZeroGlide sockliner and allow it to air dry separately. You can use boot deodorizers or stuff boots with newspaper to absorb moisture and odor. Ensure boots are fully dry before storage.
