Setup: 1. Unboxing: Carefully remove your new boots from the packaging. 2. First Wear: Wear them around the house for a short period to get accustomed to the fit. It's recommended to wear your usual football socks to ensure an accurate feel. 3. Break-in (Optional but Recommended): For optimal comfort and performance, gradually break in your boots during light training sessions before competitive matches. This allows the materials to mold to your foot shape. Compatibility: These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches. This includes natural grass surfaces that are dry to slightly damp. Using them on artificial grass (AG), soft ground (SG), or indoor courts (IC) is not recommended and can lead to reduced performance, accelerated wear, or potential injury. Care: 1. Cleaning After Use: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. 2. Washing: For deeper cleaning, wipe down the exterior with a mild soap solution and a damp cloth. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and structure. 3. Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. 4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures. 5. Inspection: Regularly check studs for wear or damage. Replace boots if significant damage occurs to the soleplate or upper to maintain safety and performance.
